Special Requirements
- • Kenyan educational documents from institutions accredited after 2012 must include a CUE recognition letter confirming the programme was accredited at the time of study. GreenAttest verifies accreditation status with CUE before initiating the authentication process to prevent delays or rejections.
- • Employment reference letters from Kenyan employers must be on original company letterhead with verifiable contact details and a company registration number. UAE authorities may contact the employer directly for verification, so GreenAttest confirms employer details are current and accessible before submission.

Insider Tips
Insider Tips
- Obtain your Certificate of Good Conduct from the DCI (Directorate of Criminal Investigations) well in advance, as processing at DCI headquarters on Kiambu Road can take several weeks during peak periods.
- Ensure your Kenyan degree certificate matches the records held by the Commission for University Education (CUE), as any discrepancies between the certificate and CUE records will delay the authentication process.
- If applying for a UAE healthcare position, have your Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) or Nursing Council of Kenya (NCK) registration authenticated alongside your degree for a streamlined credential evaluation.
Frequently Asked Questions
Kenyan documents follow a defined chain: verification by the issuing authority, notarization by a Kenyan advocate or notary public, authentication by the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs in Nairobi, and finally attestation by the UAE embassy in Kenya. GreenAttest manages each step to ensure a seamless process.
UAE employers typically require authenticated copies of your Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE), university degree, professional registration certificate, Kenya Revenue Authority (KRA) compliance certificate, and a Certificate of Good Conduct from the Directorate of Criminal Investigations (DCI).
Kenyan degrees must be verified by the Commission for University Education (CUE) or the issuing university, notarized by a Kenyan advocate, authenticated by the Ministry of Foreign and Diaspora Affairs, and attested by the UAE embassy. GreenAttest coordinates with all four bodies to complete the process efficiently.
