How the Process of Certificate Attestation for Business Setup in Dubai works
Corporate documents go through Indian Embassy/Consulate attestation followed by MOFA Attestation completed digitally as part of the Home Country First process. Once the Indian Embassy or Consulate completes its verification, MOFA issues its digital attestation directly from there — a separate physical MOFA visit in Dubai is no longer required
