Medical Certificate Attestation Services in the UAE

Medical certificate and medical report attestation for UAE visa, employment and insurance purposes.

Medical certificates and medical reports sometimes need attestation for UAE visa applications, specific employment categories, or insurance and legal purposes. We manage the attestation process with the issuing medical authority and the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs so the document is recognised for its intended use.

Where a medical certificate forms part of a broader visa or employment file, we coordinate timing with any related personal document attestation so everything is ready together.

Types of Medical Documents

  • Medical fitness and health certificates
  • Medical reports for insurance or legal cases
  • Vaccination records
  • Professional medical qualifications

How It Works

The issuing medical authority or health ministry verifies the document first. It then goes through the foreign affairs and embassy steps, and finally the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The exact route depends on where the document was issued and what it is for.

What to Prepare

The original document, a passport copy and a clear statement of where it will be used. Related personal documents can be handled in the same batch, see personal document attestation.

Frequently Asked Questions

When is medical certificate attestation required in the UAE?

It comes up most often for specific visa categories, certain employment applications, and insurance or legal matters where a medical report needs to be formally recognised.

Is this the same as the UAE entry medical fitness test?

No, that is a separate, mandatory UAE-based test for residency visas. Medical certificate attestation applies to reports or certificates issued elsewhere that need to be formally recognised in the UAE.

How long does medical certificate attestation take?

It varies by issuing country and authority, typically two to four weeks.

Can you attest a medical report issued by a private clinic?

It depends on whether the clinic and its issuing physician are recognised by the relevant attestation authority in that country. We assess this on a case-by-case basis.

Do I need the original document or is a certified copy enough?

Most attestation authorities require the original document, though requirements vary by country and by the specific authority involved.

What happens if the certificate is in a language other than English or Arabic?

We arrange certified translation as part of the attestation process where needed.
