The Attestation Process: A Step-by-Step Guide

1. Verification from Issuing Authority

The first step involves verifying the document with the issuing authority in its country of origin. This might mean having your academic records confirmed by the respective university or your marriage certificate by the issuing registry.

2. Notarization

Before leaving Qatar, documents often need to be notarized by a local notary public, confirming the signer’s identity and their understanding of the document.

3. Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) Attestation in Qatar

Following notarization, documents must be attested by Qatar’s MOFA. This step certifies that your documents are valid for use abroad, serving as a prerequisite for embassy attestation.

4. Embassy or Consulate Attestation

Documents are then attested by the embassy or consulate of the destination country located in Qatar. This crucial step formally recognizes your documents under the legal framework of the destination country.

5. Final Attestation in Destination Country

Upon arrival, some documents may require a final attestation by the MOFA or equivalent authority in the destination country, fully legalizing them for local use.

Avoiding Common Attestation Mistakes

• Lack of Preparation: Begin the attestation process well in advance to accommodate for any unforeseen delays.

• Incomplete Documentation: Ensure all required supplementary documents, such as ID proofs and authorization letters, are complete and readily available.

• Misunderstanding Requirements: Each country has unique attestation requirements. Misunderstanding these can lead to delays. HelpDesk provides tailored advice based on your destination country’s specifications.
