What is Death Certificate Attestation?

Death certificate attestation is the process of validating a death certificate issued by a foreign country so that it is legally recognized in the United Arab Emirates. The attestation confirms the authenticity of the document through a chain of authorities, ending with the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA).

Why Is It Required?

An attested death certificate is essential for:

Settling insurance claims
Transferring ownership of property or assets
Closing bank accounts or legal obligations in the UAE
Repatriation of mortal remains
Updating immigration or residency records
Filing inheritance or succession documents

Who Needs This?

Family members of a deceased expatriate
Legal representatives or lawyers handling estate matters
Insurance companies or banks requesting validated documentation
Individuals managing funeral or repatriation formalities
