# Private Notary Services in Abu Dhabi for Families

If you live in Abu Dhabi and need a private notary Abu Dhabi families can reach without a wasted day, the hard part is usually the paperwork. We draft your consent letter, NOC, affidavit or power of attorney, translate it with a legal translator and check it, so the day you sign is short.

We have in-house, in person notary public services, online notary public services and home visit private notary services. Abu Dhabi has its own notary authority, so we tell you the right place to sign.

## In short

* **Price from:** affidavit of support from AED 600, child travel consent and NOC for visa from AED 1,200. Government fees are paid on top at cost.
* **We do:** draft, translate, check the ID list and handle the signing.
* **You do:** bring the original ID of every signer and sign in front of the notary.
* **Where** Abu Dhabi, Dubai, your home, or online. Ask the office that wants the document which it accepts.
* **Next step** WhatsApp what the document is for to +971 52 947 5935.

## Three ways to get it notarised

In person with our in-house notary public in Dubai

Many Abu Dhabi residents work in Dubai or pass through it. On a day you are in the city, our in-house notary public checks each signer's original ID, reads the document, watches you sign and applies the seal.

A visit to your home

For elderly relatives or a parent with a newborn, a visit may be the only realistic option. Tell us where you are and we say whether a visit can be arranged. The fee depends on the notary route.

Online, or in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi courts are run by the Abu Dhabi Judicial Department (ADJD). Its [service manual](https://www.adjd.gov.ae/AR/Documents/%D8%AF%D9%84%D9%8A%D9%84_%D8%AE%D8%AF%D9%85%D8%A7%D8%AA_%D8%A7%D9%84%D9%83%D8%A7%D8%AA%D8%A8_%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%B9%D8%AF%D9%84_%D9%88%D8%A7%D9%84%D8%AA%D9%88%D8%AB%D9%8A%D9%82Eng.pdf) says applications are made on the ADJD website, then a remote meeting with the notary follows. Some offices prefer an Abu Dhabi notarisation, so ask them first. For online notarisation through the Ministry of Justice or Dubai Courts, see [e-notary in Dubai](https://privatenotarydubai.com/e-notary-dubai/).

Each has a template in our [notary document templates](https://privatenotarydubai.com/notary-document-templates/), or send us the details and we prepare it.

Checklist

## Notarization Abu Dhabi: what to have ready

What to have ready

* Original Emirates ID or passport for each person signing.
* Your Abu Dhabi tenancy contract or title deed, if the document says where a visitor will stay.
* Passport copies of any visitor or child named in the document.
* For a company signatory, the trade licence and proof of signing power.

Step by step

## How it works

1

You tell us which office asked for the document and what exactly they wrote.

2

We draft the text with names as printed in each passport and your Abu Dhabi address in full.

3

We translate it with a legal translator registered with the Ministry of Justice, where the notary needs Arabic. See [translation and notary services](https://privatenotarydubai.com/translation-services-in-dubai/).

4

You check the final version line by line.

5

You sign in front of the notary. We take care of the [MOFAIC attestation](https://www.mofa.gov.ae/en/services/attestation) if the document is going to an embassy or abroad.

## What the notary does at the signing

The notary checks each signer's identity from an official ID, confirms the person has capacity and is signing freely, and reads out the document and its effect ([Federal Decree-Law No. 20 of 2022, Article 7](https://uaelegislation.gov.ae/en/legislations/1563)). If you do not share the notary's language, a registered interpreter is used (Article 8). Then you sign, and the notary signs and seals.

All service prices are starting prices and are negotiable. Government fees are paid on top, at cost, exactly as the authority charges them. We confirm your final price before you pay.

Questions

## Frequently asked questions

### Is a private notary in Abu Dhabi different from a notary public?

Both are notaries. People often say "notary public" for the court or ministry notary, and a private notary is an individual on the register who works from a private office. The seal and the checks serve the same purpose.

### Can I use an Abu Dhabi notary public for a document going to India or the Philippines?

Usually yes. After the seal, most papers bound for another country go to MOFAIC and then often to that country's embassy.

### I live in Al Ain. Does this page apply to me?

Al Ain is in the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, so the same planning applies.

### Can both parents sign in different emirates?

Sometimes, if the document allows separate signatures. Signing together is more reliable.
