Middle East · Non-Hague Member
United Arab Emirates is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Documents intended for United Arab Emirates require a different authentication pathway — typically consular legalization rather than a standard apostille.
Does a standard Hague apostille route apply to the UAE?
Do not assume a Hague apostille-only route. The current authentication and legalization requirements must be confirmed for the document type and UAE receiving authority before execution or release.
How are U.S. documents prepared for use in the UAE?
The pathway depends on the document and receiving authority. The Milano Seal reviews the U.S. issuing authority and current authentication/legalization requirements before confirming the route.
The Milano Seal provides document coordination, notarization support, apostille/authentication routing review, courier custody, and release support. International use remains subject to destination-country, receiving-authority, document-type, and signer-location requirements.
