The Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced to strengthen cooperation with the Emirates School Establishment by integrating its documents attestation service with the school certificate issuance service, enabling customers to obtain three government transactions in one procedure and through a unified online platform.
The integration process reduces service completion, where students in Abu Dhabi can now have their school certificate in 3 minutes, rather than 6 days. Previously, the transaction delivery time was 3 days inside the UAE and 3 days abroad. The move also eliminates courier service costs.
The initiative grants easy access to the attestation service, and offers it proactively, allowing customers to apply for the “issuance and attestation of a school certificate-public education” service through the website, ‘ese.gov.ae’, and choose ‘MoFA’ attestation while applying. They can obtain the service without the need to visit the websites of both authorities separately.
This goal aligns with the objectives of the Zero Government Bureaucracy Programme of the UAE.
The Zero Government Bureaucracy Programme is an initiative of the country aimed at modernizing the current work structure to enhance service quality and efficiency. The programme seeks to eliminate outmoded government procedures and requirements, simplifying processes.
Providing the school certificate attestation service by MoFA through the website will save time and effort and the required service will be provided through one channel without the need to visit more than one service channel.
