Affidavit & Declaration UAE
Affidavit & Declaration UAE
In the UAE, affidavits and declarations are crucial legal documents used to confirm facts, statements, or intentions under oath. Whether you’re verifying your marital status, financial situation, or legal identity, a properly drafted and notarized affidavit is required for many official purposes including visa applications, property transactions, and legal claims.
Affidavits and declarations serve as legal proof and are recognized by UAE courts, immigration departments, embassies, and private institutions
UAE Affidavit & Declaration Guidelines (Updated Rules)
- An affidavit is a sworn statement confirmed by oath, while a declaration is a written statement made without oath. Both are considered valid legal instruments in the UAE.
- Documents must be drafted in a formal structure, stating the identity, intent, and truthful nature of the content.
- Most affidavits require legal translation into Arabic and attestation by a Notary Public or private notary.
- These documents are often required for embassy submissions, immigration cases, court procedures, and employment documentation.
