MOFA Attestation

Attest official documents through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

When a Saudi document is used abroad, or a foreign document is used inside the Kingdom, it usually needs Ministry of Foreign Affairs attestation after the earlier attestations by the issuer, the chamber of commerce or the relevant embassy. Examples include academic and experience certificates, powers of attorney, contracts and commercial documents. The most common rejection reason is a missing or misordered prior attestation. At Tasami we review the document and the receiving party with you, define the exact attestation chain and follow the request through MOFA e-services until you receive the attested document.
