Private and mobile notary services for families
Private Notary Services in Dubai, at Home, in Hospital or at Work
We draft the letter or affidavit you need, book the notary, and bring the signing to the place that suits you: your living room, a hospital ward, your office or your hotel.
Where do you want to sign?
Pick a place. The notary follows the same rules in every one of them; only who travels changes.
At home
For elderly parents, new mothers and anyone who cannot sit in traffic and a waiting room with small children. We confirm the address, who signs and the ID each one will show.

Notary at home in Dubai
In hospital
The ward has to agree to the visit, and the notary has to be satisfied the patient understands and signs freely. We speak to the family first, then the hospital, then book the notary.

Hospital notary service
At the office
Useful when one signer cannot leave work. The notary comes to a meeting room, checks ID and seals the document there.

At a hotel
For visiting parents or grandparents who are only in Dubai for a few days and need to sign before they fly home.

How a visit works
A remote session
UAE law lets a notary use IT tools in place of personal appearance, and the Ministry of Justice runs an E-Notary System. Not every document or signer suits a video session; we tell you which route fits.
How e-notary worksWould rather go to the notary? We book the slot at a Dubai private notary office, send you the address and have the document on the desk when you arrive. This avoids the trip fee.
Private notary services
Personal and family paperwork, drafted and signed
Our work is built around the papers a household needs, not company files. We draft the document, check it against each signer's passport and book the notary.
Travel consent for children
A signed letter from the parent or parents who are not travelling, prepared from our child travel consent template.
NOC letters
A no objection letter for a visa, a job change or a family member, built from the wording on our NOC letter for visa page.
Affidavit of support
The sworn statement a resident signs when sponsoring a relative's visit, with every step explained.
Declaration of residency
A signed statement of where you live, for banks, schools and embassies that ask for proof of address.
Personal declarations and undertakings
Statements of name, income, marital status or employment, from our declaration letter templates.
Witnessing of signatures
When a document only needs a signature confirmed before a notary, at home or at work.
Translation
English, Arabic or bilingual versions, with a legal translator registered with the Ministry of Justice where the receiving office needs it.
Mobile notary visits
How a visit runs, what to have on the table when the notary arrives, and how evening and weekend requests are handled.
Company resolutions, share transfers and court cases are handled by firms that specialise in them.
How it works
Five steps up to a sealed document
1
You tell us the document and who signs it
A short call or WhatsApp message is enough: what it is for, who signs, and whether it will be used in the UAE or abroad.
2
We draft the wording
In English, Arabic or both. You check names and passport numbers before anything is printed.
3
We book the notary
We agree a time and place with you, then book the notary for that slot.
4
The signer signs before the notary
The notary checks the Emirates ID or passport, reads the content out, confirms consent and applies the seal.
5
You receive the sealed document
If it is going abroad, we tell you whether MOFAIC attestation or an embassy step comes next, and can take care of it.
Documents we prepare
Send us the details, and we prepare the document
Start with the request letter from the bank, school, embassy or visa office. We collect the names exactly as printed in each passport, write the text and send it to you as a PDF to check line by line.
Open a document below to read its guide, or ask us to prepare it for you.
Not on the shelf? Send us a photo of the request letter you received. Its wording usually tells us which document the office wants.
Prices
What a family document costs
The document templates are free to use. A home or hospital visit adds the Dubai private notary trip fee of AED 1,000 per trip, and we include it in the quote before you book.
Our service prices are starting prices. The government fee is separate and is charged exactly as the authority sets it.
Notarised is not the same as attested
- Notarisation confirms who signed and that they signed willingly. It happens at the signing.
- MOFAIC attestation is a later step, usually needed when a UAE document will be used in another country.
- Embassy attestation may then be needed by the country where the document will be used.
The UAE is not a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so a document signed in Dubai does not get an apostille.

Before the notary arrives
Get the table ready the day before the signing
A visit is most often held up by something small: an ID left in the car, or a signer who has gone out. Tick off this list before the notary comes to your home, office, hotel room or hospital ward.
The notary checks each original ID against the document, reads it out and confirms each signer agrees before sealing it.
Document templates
Free templates before you book
Many families arrive with a letter copied from a forum that the notary will not accept: a missing passport number, no dates, a signature block for the wrong parent.
Our templates give you clean starting wording. Fill one yourself and ask us only for the signing, or send it to us to check and complete.

Using a template yourself
From a blank template to a signed document
1
Pick the right document
Read the office's request letter first. A consent letter and an affidavit are drafted differently.
2
Fill every bracket
Names in the same spelling and order as the passport, and passport and Emirates ID numbers in full.
3
Leave the signature blank
You sign in front of the notary. A letter signed at home in advance has to be printed again.
4
Check the language
In Dubai, an English text is signed with an Arabic translation by a certified translator beside it.
5
Choose where to sign
At home, in hospital or at the notary's office, or send it to us to check first.
Most refusals come from small slips: a name order that does not match the passport, open dates such as "travel in the summer", or the wrong person signing. The templates library lists the five we see most.

What families ask first
Is a private notary in Dubai the same as a notary public?
Both can notarise. The Dubai Courts notary public is the government notary, and a private notary is a lawyer Dubai Courts has licensed and placed on its notary roll. Our guide to the duties of a private notary explains the difference.
Can the notary come to my home?
Yes. A Dubai private notary charges AED 1,000 per trip outside the place of work, set by Dubai Courts, on top of our service price. We quote the full cost before booking.
Can a patient sign a document in hospital?
Yes, if the hospital allows the visit and the notary is satisfied the patient understands the document and agrees to it. The notary decides this at the bedside.
Can I just walk in for a signing?
No. The notary's time is booked for your document and your address, so every signing has an appointment. Send us the document type and the signers' names and we will propose a time.
Can you prepare the document in Arabic?
Yes. We prepare English, Arabic or bilingual versions, and a legal translator registered with the Ministry of Justice translates where needed. See translation and notary services.
How soon can a family document be signed?
If you need a fast private notary in Dubai, send us the details today and we tell you the earliest appointment available. A document with the details ready can often be drafted and signed quickly, but the date depends on the notary's diary and, for hospital visits, the hospital.
