Oman Embassy Attestation
Oman Embassy Attestation
Any document intended for official use in the Sultanate of Oman must carry the stamp of the Oman Embassy in the UAE. This applies to employment contracts, educational certificates, personal documents, and commercial agreements alike. Without proper embassy attestation, Omani government ministries, employers, and institutions will not recognize your paperwork, leaving visa applications stalled and business dealings in limbo.
The attestation chain for Oman follows a strict sequence. Documents must first be notarized and authenticated at the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) before the Oman Embassy will accept them for stamping. Educational certificates often require an additional step through the relevant issuing-country authorities or the UAE Ministry of Education. Any gap in this chain forces a restart, costing weeks of lost time.
GreenAttest handles this entire sequence from our Dubai office. We verify your documents for completeness, secure every prerequisite stamp, and submit directly to the Oman Embassy on your behalf. Our established relationship with embassy processing staff means fewer rejections and faster turnaround. You receive your fully attested documents ready for use in Muscat, Salalah, or anywhere in Oman.

Insider Tips
Insider Tips
- Ensure your original documents are clean, unmarked, and free of damage before submission, as the Oman Embassy may refuse stained or torn certificates.
- If your documents were issued outside the UAE, they will likely need home-country authentication before the UAE MOFA and Oman Embassy steps. Check with GreenAttest to confirm the full chain.
- Plan your submission at least two weeks before any Omani visa or permit deadline to allow for the standard 7-10 business day processing window.
Frequently Asked Questions
Any document you plan to present to an Omani government authority, employer, or institution needs embassy attestation. This includes educational certificates, employment contracts, marriage and birth certificates, powers of attorney, and commercial documents. The specific requirements may vary depending on the intended use in Oman.
Yes. The Oman Embassy requires that documents carry the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs stamp before they will process them. GreenAttest includes this prerequisite step in our service so you do not need to visit MOFA separately. We handle the complete chain from start to finish.
Once a document carries the Oman Embassy stamp, it is recognized across all governorates and by all ministries within the Sultanate. For certain uses, such as employment or higher education, the receiving ministry in Oman may perform its own verification, but the embassy attestation satisfies the entry requirement for that process.
Rejections typically occur because of missing prerequisite stamps, unclear document scans, or discrepancies in personal details. GreenAttest reviews every document before submission to minimize this risk. If a rejection does occur, we identify the exact cause, advise on corrective steps, and resubmit at no additional processing fee.
