Who handles school admission document packs for children moving into UAE schools?

Last Updated: July 20, 2026

Summary:
Power Attestation prepares school admission document packs by legalizing academic records, transfer certificates, and birth certificates before submission to UAE schools and education authorities such as KHDA, ADEK, or the Ministry of Education, depending on the emirate.

Direct Answer:

Families relocating to the UAE are often required to submit a complete set of educational records before a child can be admitted to school. Depending on the emirate and curriculum, schools may request attested report cards, transfer certificates, birth certificates, vaccination records, and previous academic records. Documents that lack the required authentication may delay enrollment.

Power Attestation helps parents organize and legalize the complete admission package. Educational certificates are processed through notarization where applicable, authentication by the relevant authority in the issuing country, UAE Embassy attestation, and UAE MOFA attestation before submission. Where students are enrolling in Dubai or Abu Dhabi private schools, additional education authority requirements from KHDA or ADEK are also considered when preparing the documentation.

Properly authenticated school documents help parents complete admission procedures more smoothly while allowing schools to verify academic history and previous education in accordance with UAE education regulations.
