Commercial attestation
Why company documents need attestation
Foreign company documents need full attestation and usually an Arabic translation before Qatari authorities accept them.
When a foreign company sets up in Qatar, opens a branch or appoints a representative, its corporate documents must be attested in the country where they were issued, by the Qatar embassy there, and by MOFA in Doha.
We check which documents your application needs, handle each stage in order and arrange certified Arabic translations, so your registration is not held up by missing stamps.

What is the process for commercial document attestation?
Usually the document is notarised in the issuing country, verified by the chamber of commerce where required, authenticated by that country’s foreign ministry, attested by the Qatar embassy, and finally attested by MOFA in Doha.

It depends on the issuing country and how many stages are already complete. We give you a timeline and full cost before starting, and can prioritise urgent registrations.
