Question 1

What documents do I need to bring for notarisation?

Accepted Answer

A valid Emirates ID is required for every notarisation, along with the original document to be notarised and, where the signatory acts for a company, a trade licence and proof of signing authority. Send us the document in advance and we will confirm exactly what to bring.

Question 2

Do I need an appointment or can I walk in?

Accepted Answer

Both work. Appointments are handled the same day in most cases, and walk-ins are welcome during office hours at API Tower on Sheikh Zayed Road. Booking ahead means the paperwork is prepared before you arrive.

Question 3

What are your working hours?

Accepted Answer

The office is open Monday to Friday, 09:00 to 17:30. WhatsApp enquiries are answered around the clock, and messages received during business hours are typically answered within 30 minutes.

Question 4

Do you provide services in Arabic and English?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Documents are handled and explained in both Arabic and English. Where a document is in another language, an attested legal translation is arranged before notarisation.

Question 5

How much does notarisation cost?

Accepted Answer

Notary fees in Dubai depend on the type of document and, for contracts, on the contract value. Share the document with us and you will receive a clear quote covering the notary fee and any translation or drafting work before anything proceeds.

Question 6

Can you notarise a power of attorney for use outside the UAE?

Accepted Answer

Yes. A power of attorney intended for use abroad is notarised and then routed through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the relevant consulate for legalisation. We handle the drafting and advise on the steps that apply to your destination country.

Question 7

Can a non-Muslim expatriate register a will in Dubai?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Non-Muslim residents can have a will notarised in Dubai covering assets and guardianship arrangements in the UAE. We prepare the wording, confirm it meets the registration requirements, and handle the notarisation.

Question 8

What is a notary warning and when do I need one?

Accepted Answer

A notary warning is a formal notice served through the notary public, most often used to demand payment, demand performance of a contractual obligation, or place the other party on record before starting court proceedings. It creates dated, official evidence that notice was given.
