Every time you need to use important documents in legal, educational, or governmental settings, attestation becomes essential. Sheen Services WLL offers trusted attestation services in Qatar to ensure your papers are accepted promptly.
Document attestation confirms that your certificates, records, and legal papers are genuine and recognised by local and international authorities. Whether applying for a job, pursuing higher education, arranging a family visa, or handling business contracts, properly attested documents can save time and prevent complications.
What is Document Attestation and Why It Matters
Document attestation services in Qatar certify documents to confirm their authenticity. These processes are required for:
- Educational certificates, degree transcripts or professional credentials;
- Health-related certificates;
- Personal documents such as birth or marriage certificates;
- Commercial and legal documents for business, contracts or immigration.
Without correct attestation, documents may be rejected by authorities, employers, universities or immigration offices. The reliability of an official attestation service in Qatar ensures that authorities accept documents as valid and properly certified.
Who Provides Attestation in Qatar?
In Qatar, several government bodies handle attestation depending on the document type:
- The Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) attests documents that need international legal status or will be used abroad.
- The Ministry of Public Health (MoPH) handles health and health-related documents, such as medical certificates, vaccination records and professional health credentials.
- The Ministry of Justice oversees notary attestation, required for affidavits, powers of attorney, contracts and other legal documents.
When Do You Need Attestation?
You may require an official attestation service in Qatar when:
- Using your documents abroad: work visa, foreign university admission, family visa, etc.
- Applying to governmental authorities or agencies within Qatar, demanding validated credentials.
- Engaging in legal or contractual matters where the authenticity of signatures, seals, and origin matters.
- Submitting health-related documentation: medical reports, licences, immunisation certificates, etc.
How the Process Works with Sheen Services
Here is how professional attestation services in Qatar work when you engage Sheen Services WLL:
Step | What Happens |

Submission to Relevant Authority | Depending on the document type, we submit to MoPH, MOFA, Ministry of Justice or other authorities. |
