Moroccan Degree Attestation
Moroccan Degree Attestation
Moroccan university degrees require verification by the Ministry of Higher Education before MAEC authentication. This confirms the issuing university is accredited and the degree programme is recognised by the Moroccan government, which is essential for UAE employers and licensing authorities to accept the qualification.
Green Apple Attest handles the complete attestation chain for graduates of all Moroccan public and private universities, including Mohammed V University, Hassan II University, Al Akhawayn University, and the grande ecole system. We also process diplomas from professional training institutions regulated by OFPPT.
Our team in Rabat manages the degree verification, Tribunal legalisation, MAEC authentication, and UAE Embassy stages. Our UAE office completes the MOFA attestation and delivers the fully attested degree ready for submission to your employer or licensing body.

Insider Tips
Insider Tips
- If your degree is in French and your UAE employer requires English documentation, arrange certified translation before attestation so both documents can go through the chain together.
- Grande ecole graduates should include their diploma supplement or annexe descriptive if available, as this provides additional detail that can support recognition by UAE licensing bodies.
- Contact your university to ensure your degree has been officially conferred and registered with the Ministry before starting the attestation process.
Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Diplomas from Moroccan grande ecoles such as engineering schools and business schools can be attested provided the institution is recognised by the Ministry of Higher Education. We verify recognition status before proceeding.
Including Ministry verification, the full process takes 20 to 25 working days. If you already have Ministry verification, the chain from Tribunal to MOFA takes approximately 15 to 18 working days.
OFPPT professional training diplomas follow a similar chain but verification is done through OFPPT rather than the Ministry of Higher Education. We handle both pathways and advise you on the correct process for your specific qualification.
