Saudi Arabia Degree Attestation

Attest university degree certificates for submission to Saudi Arabia

Attest degree certificates and university course transcripts for submission to the authorities of Saudi Arabia

Degree certificates and university course transcripts required for submission to Saudi authorities or in support of Saudi Arabia visa applications can be attested with an Apostille Stamp, issued by the competent authority of the country where the university is based.

Since Saudi Arabia joined the Apostille Convention in December 2022, Degree Certificates required for submission to Saudi authorities or in support of Saudi visa applications no longer need to be attested by the Saudi Arabia embassy or Cultural Bureau.

Instead Degrees can be authenticated with a simple Apostille Stamp when issued in any country that is a member of the Apostille Convention. The Apostille will be accepted by Saudi Authorities as confirmation of authenticity.
