When your employer asks for diploma attestation
The request may be connected to recruitment, onboarding, a work permit, professional licensing or verification of your qualification.
Start with the exact UAE instruction
“Attestation” can refer to more than one document step. Share the employer email, HR checklist, visa instruction or licensing request before arranging legalisation or translation.
Arrange the route from outside the Netherlands
If you already live in the UAE, Apostille Assist can coordinate the agreed Dutch-side handling so you do not need to return solely for appointments or document submission.

Frequently asked questions
What does diploma attestation for UAE employment mean?
It generally means preparing a diploma for official use by an employer or another organisation involved in employment, visa processing or professional registration.
Is attestation the same as an apostille?
Not necessarily. Attestation is often used as a broader term. The correct route depends on the document and the current instruction from the UAE receiving party.
Does my Dutch diploma need DUO legalisation?
It may. This depends on the type of education document, the issuing institution and the route required for its intended use.
Can this be arranged while I am in the UAE?
Often much of the Dutch-side handling can be coordinated remotely, depending on the document, its current location and the required appointments.
Does attestation guarantee recognition of my degree?
No. Document legalisation and professional or academic recognition are separate processes decided by the relevant UAE organisation.
