The Equivalency Certificate Process
Getting an equivalency certificate is a multi-step process with strict documentation. Here's a summary:
1. Attestation of Educational Documents: Educational certificates need to be attested by:
- Issuing the country's Ministry of Education
- UAE Embassy in the issuing country
- UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA)
2. Issuance of a Genuineness Letter: Some countries require a letter from the university stating that your qualification is authentic
3. Submission to UAE Ministry of Education: Send your attested documents and transcripts, passport copy, visa copy, and other documents required either online through the MoE portal or in person.
4. Evaluation and Approval: The Ministry evaluates your academic program, university accreditation, length of study, and curriculum to ascertain equivalency.
5. Issuance of Equivalency Certificate: The official equivalency certificate is then issued and used for employment, licensing, or educational purposes upon approval.

For the issuance of an equivalency certificate, the following conditions should be fulfilled:
