Instituted by the 'Hague Convention Abolishing The Requirements of Legalization for Foreign Documents' of 1961 obviates the objective of “ the requirements of diplomatic or consular legalization” in turn replacing the burden of 'chain authentication method' that calls for verification by multiple authorities.

UAE (United Arab Emirates) is not a member of the Hague Apotille Convention and so any official document destined for this country will receive a Certificate from the Secretary of State.

Legalizing documents for UAE may require additional steps before the documents can be presented to the UAE Embassy or Consulate Office.
