A marriage certificate is a mandatory supporting document for spouse and family visa sponsorship in the UAE. Without attestation, immigration authorities cannot confirm the marital relationship, and a sponsorship application will not proceed.
What the Process Involves
Marriage certificate attestation follows the standard chain for your country of issue: notarization or home-country verification, UAE Embassy attestation, and MOFA UAE certification. For documents issued in Pakistan, this typically includes verification through the relevant provincial authority before Embassy attestation.
- Home-country verification of the marriage certificate
- UAE Embassy attestation in the issuing country
