The country of the UAE (United Arab Emirates) has one Embassy in Washington, D.C. and one Consulate office in Los Angeles, California.

Legalizing documents for the United Arab Emirates is a multi-step process. The first step is certifying your documents with the State office (Secretary of State or Lieutenant Governor’s office). Certifying a document for UAE is different than an Apostille. Because the UAE is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, your documents will also require U.S. Department of State legalization in Washington, D.C. and Embassy or Consulate legalization.

Our office in New York and Washington, D.C. have the expertise to complete your documents quickly.  Some documents may also require County Clerk authentication.  Please, contact us so we can review your documents and provide you a good faith estimate and processing time.
