Affidavit means written declaration or a statement under oath. Most importantly, an affidavit in Pakistan involving family matters, money matters or any declarations about child travelling requires confirmation by UAE authorities. Due to the fact that affidavits can be used for any kind of private matter, UAE Embassy assumes that the attested affidavit is the only proper way to establish that the stated document was duly sworn in Pakistan.
What is UAE Embassy affidavit attestation and why it matters?
Attestation guarantees that the affidavit has been sworn in the above-mentioned way in Pakistan and its contents have been unchanged till the moment of attestation. Most often, this attestation is required for getting no-objection declaration from the spouse, financial support affidavit for dependent visa and parental consent for a child going to the UAE.
Essential documents needed for attestation
- Original notarized affidavit
- Copy of CNIC belonging to person who swore the affidavit
- Copy of passport
- Any additional documents referred to in the affidavit (confirmation of relationship, financial documents)
Affidavits that are vague or missing notary stamps are often sent back for correction, so we thoroughly check the wording and stamps beforehand.
