Why a power of attorney needs the full chain for the UAE
A power of attorney lets you handle property, inheritance and company matters in the destination country without travelling there yourself. The UAE is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so an apostille alone is not accepted. The document goes through the full consular chain: attestation in Finland, MFA legalisation, embassy legalisation and confirmation by the destination's foreign ministry. We handle every stage for you.
Process
How the chain proceeds for the UAE
- 01
Notarisation
The signature on the power of attorney is attested by a notary public, the first and mandatory step of the chain.
- 02
Ministry for Foreign Affairs
The Finnish MFA legalises the notary's or DVV's signature (€30 per signature).
- 03
Embassy legalisation
The document is legalised at the UAE embassy in Helsinki (fee €39–511 depending on document type).
- 04
Confirmation at destination
On arrival the document is attested at the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFAIC). We brief the recipient in advance.
The total consists of authority fees (MFA €30 per signature, embassy €39–511) and our service fee (€100). You get an exact quote before we start.
