Moroccan Commercial Authentication
Moroccan Commercial Authentication
Moroccan companies expanding into the UAE or engaging in commercial relationships with Emirati entities need their corporate documents authenticated. The Registre de Commerce (commercial register) issues key company documents, which must pass through the Tribunal, MAEC, UAE Embassy, and MOFA attestation chain.
Green Apple Attest handles authentication of Registre de Commerce extracts, statuts (articles of association), attestation d existence (certificate of good standing), tax documentation from the Direction Generale des Impots, and other commercial filings. We ensure every document meets the specific requirements of UAE free zones, mainland authorities, and financial institutions.
Our bilingual team in Morocco navigates the French and Arabic administrative requirements seamlessly, ensuring documents are properly formatted and certified at every stage of the chain.

Insider Tips
Insider Tips
- Ensure your Registre de Commerce entry is current and all company changes have been registered before starting the authentication process.
- If your UAE target jurisdiction requires English-language documents, include certified translation in your order from the start to avoid doing the chain twice.
- Submit all corporate documents in a single batch. The Tribunal and MAEC process batches more efficiently than individual documents.
Frequently Asked Questions
Requirements vary by UAE jurisdiction, but typically include a Registre de Commerce extract, company statuts, attestation d existence, and a board resolution. Some free zones require additional documents. We advise based on your target UAE jurisdiction.
The documents can be authenticated in French, but UAE authorities may require certified Arabic or English translation for processing. We offer a combined translation and authentication service for French-language commercial documents.
The full chain from Tribunal to MOFA takes approximately 15 to 22 working days. If certified translation is also needed, add 3 to 5 working days. We recommend starting at least one month before your UAE business deadline.
