Witnessing of Signatures in UAE

Witnessing of signatures is carried out by a lawyer on documents such as statutory declarations, affidavits and application forms. As part of the witnessing, the lawyer confirms that the person in question has signed the document in his presence and the lawyer has verified his identity through passport or other applicable ID. This type of witnessing is often required by government authorities, embassies, banks and other private bodies around the world to confirm that the person in question has indeed signed the document.

What is witnessing of signatures in Dubai and across the UAE?

Witnessing of signatures is carried out by a lawyer whereby he acts as a witness to the signing of a document.

The person signing the document shows his valid passport or other relevant ID and signs the document in the presence of a lawyer. The lawyer then signs and stamps the document to confirm that the person in question has signed the document in the presence of the lawyer.

What is the difference between notary and lawyer witnessing in the UAE?

The notary public in the UAE typically witnesses documents that are permitted to be witnessed by the notary public under the law. There are a number of situations where the documents intended to be used outside the UAE are not witnessed by the notary public. These documents are thus witnessed by lawyers in the UAE in line with the requirements of the government body or embassy requesting the witnessing of signatures.
