Free Document Templates for Private Notary Services in Dubai

This library holds a free private notary Dubai template for each family document people ask us about most: child travel consent, NOC letters, affidavits of support, declarations of residency, personal declarations and powers of attorney. Each one has its wording on the page to copy into your own document, with a guide that explains every line.

A template saves you from writing a legal letter from a blank page. It does not replace the signing. Every document here only has effect once the person named in it signs before a notary, who checks their identity and seals it. When you are ready for that step, we can bring the notary to you.

Every service, by group

Four groups, one page for each task

Pick the group that matches what the office asked you for. Each page has sample wording, what to bring and the signing steps.

How to use these templates

Pick the document the receiving office asked for

Read their request letter or email first. The name of the document matters: a "consent letter" and an "affidavit" are drafted differently.

Fill every square bracket

Names exactly as printed in the passport, with the same spelling and order. Passport and Emirates ID numbers in full.

Do not sign yet

The signature has to be made in front of the notary. A letter signed at home in advance usually has to be printed and signed again.

Check the language

A notarised instrument in the UAE is in Arabic, with foreign language drafting allowed only under conditions set by the Minister of Justice (Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022, Article 5). Dubai asks for an Arabic translation by a certified translator next to any English text (Dubai Law No. 4 of 2013, Article 27).

Send it to us if you want it checked

We compare it with the request letter and the passports before booking the notary.

Child travel templates

Child travel consent letter

For a child travelling without one or both parents: with one parent, grandparents, a school group or alone. The parent or parents who are not travelling sign it. This is our most used template, and the guide explains each field and the situations where airlines ask for it.

Guide and sample: child travel consent form UAE PDF and letter

Consent letter for travel with one parent

A shorter version for the most common case: one parent flies with the child and the other gives permission. It includes wording for separated and divorced parents.

Guide and sample: child travel consent form with one parent

Consent form for travel from the UAE to India

A version laid out for Indian families, with space for the details Indian travel paperwork usually asks for.

NOC letter templates

A no objection letter says that one person does not object to another person's visa, job, travel or study. People often search for a "private notary Dubai NOC format" because the receiving office rejected a letter with missing details. Our NOC templates all include the full identity of both people, the exact purpose, and a signature block for the notary.

01

No objection letter for visa

The general template for a visa NOC from an employer, sponsor or family member.

Guide and sample: no objection letter for visa

02

NOC for a child visa

Signed by the parent who is not sponsoring the child.

Guide and sample: NOC for child visa sample

03

For a wife taking a job or applying for a visa where the husband's NOC is requested.

Guide and sample: NOC letter from husband to wife

04

NOC from sponsor to work in another company

For an employee who needs the current sponsor's written consent before joining another employer.

Guide and sample: no objection letter from sponsor to work

Affidavit and declaration templates

Affidavit of support

The sworn statement a UAE resident signs to support a relative's visit, confirming they will cover the visitor's costs.

Guides and samples: how to get an affidavit of support in Dubai and the affidavit of support for Abu Dhabi

Declaration of residency

A signed statement of where you live, for banks, schools and embassies that ask for proof of address when you have no bill in your name.

Guide and sample: declaration of residency sample

Personal declarations and undertakings

Templates for a declaration of name, income, unemployment and a general undertaking.

If you have taken a new name, after a marriage or a divorce for example, use the name change affidavit format instead of the declaration of name.

Guide and samples: declaration letter templates

Power of attorney templates

A power of attorney gives another person authority to act for you. These templates cover the wording. The procedure for a power of attorney has its own rules, so read the guide before you print.

Special power of attorney

For one defined task, such as collecting a document, signing a tenancy or dealing with a bank.

Guide and sample: special power of attorney form

Vehicle power of attorney

For a relative or friend to register, renew or sell your car.

Guide and sample: vehicle power of attorney template

Company power of attorney

For a company appointing a person to act for it.

Guide and sample: company power of attorney template

UAE law does not give a power of attorney a fixed lifespan. It lasts for the term written into it, so put the end date, or the event that ends it, into the template.

Sample wording

A short authorisation letter sample for the UAE

Many small tasks do not need a power of attorney. A school, a courier office or a building management office will often accept a simple authorisation letter. Here is a sample you can copy. Check with the office first whether they want it notarised.

If the office asks for the letter to be notarised, the signer signs it before a notary, and the notary adds the seal below the signature.

Versions for school pick-ups, a relative caring for your children while you travel and building management offices are on our authorization letter sample UAE page, with a guide to when an office will want a power of attorney instead.

Bilingual document drafting

Most of our templates are in English. Many offices in the UAE accept English with an Arabic translation, and some want the document drafted in both languages side by side.

Why it matters

The language of a notarised instrument is Arabic, with conditional exceptions (Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022, Article 5). Under Dubai's notary law, the English and the Arabic versions are both signed, and the Arabic comes from a certified translator (Dubai Law No. 4 of 2013, Article 27).

Who translates

A legal translator registered with the UAE Ministry of Justice. Machine translation is not accepted for this.

What it costs

Notarising a translation included in the instrument carries a federal fee of AED 50 per page (Cabinet Resolution No. 19 of 2024, item 11). The translator's own charge is separate.

We prepare bilingual versions of any template here. See translation and notary services.

Step by step

Five mistakes we see on filled templates

1

The name order does not match the passport

"Mohammed Ali Khan" in the letter and "Khan Mohammed Ali" in the passport is enough for a counter to refuse it.

2

Dates left open

"Travel in the summer" is vague. Give the departure and return dates.

3

The wrong person signs

An NOC for a child visa is signed by the parent who is not sponsoring, not by the sponsor.

4

Signed before the appointment

The signature has to be made before the notary.

5

An old template

Offices change their wording requirements. If the request letter lists specific sentences, use them word for word.

Get it signed

When the template is filled, you have three choices.

Sign at home or in hospital

We bring the notary to you. See mobile private notary services.

Sign at the notary's office

We book the slot and send you the address.

Ask us to check it first

We compare it with the request and the passports, and fix what needs fixing.

Questions

Questions about the templates

Are the templates really free?

Yes. Copy, fill in and print them as often as you need. You pay only if you ask us to draft, check or book the signing.

Is a private notary Dubai sample letter accepted as it is?

A template is a starting point. It becomes a valid document only when the signer signs it before a notary and the notary seals it. The receiving office may also have its own required wording, so check their request first.

Can I sign the template without a notary?

You can sign it, but most offices that ask for these documents want the signature notarised. An unnotarised letter is usually refused for visas, travel consent and proof of address.

What is the difference between a private notary Dubai form and a government form?

Some authorities publish their own forms, for example for visa applications. Our templates are for the letters and affidavits that you write yourself and then have notarised. If the authority gives you its own form, use that form.

Do you have the templates in Arabic?

The templates are in English. We prepare Arabic or bilingual versions on request, translated by a legal translator registered with the Ministry of Justice.
