If you are working in a role in the education sector in the UAE, you have to go through a
process known as equivalency. This is a process of checking the academic qualification to be
genuine and will be verified by the Ministry of Higher Education in the U.A.E

Equivalency Certificate is required by those in Higher Education teaching positions such as
university professors, doctors and other professionals. All professionals related to the
government jobs required equalancy certificate.

IT depends on the educational level issued for each nationality; we strongly advise you to
enquire which documents you will need before you start the equivalency process. If you
present your highest Degree at the Happiness Centre, you will be given a list of documents
required for the process of completion

Some countries require additional documentation to support their education qualifications
such as a letter from the embassy were the documents are, such countries are UK, USA,
Ireland and Australia. There is an official list of countries  on the government website. This
can’t be relied we advise to go directly to the concern departments based on your
requirements
Document requirements list for a degree is:
 A legalised copy of the qualification to be equalized
 An original transcript of results
 If applicable, a copy of the transcript record of transferred hours for each institution
 An original Embassy letter verifying the authenticity of the award if required
 A legal translation of the certificate if the original is not in either English or Arabic
 An attested copy of the high school certificate, unless the graduation date exceeds
20 years
 Proof of attendance in the country of study if enrolment was after 2000 (passport
and proof of residence)
If you completed high/secondary school over 20 years ago, the Ministry of Education will
accept a letter from the Embassy of the country you studied in stating that you have
completed high school.
Some of these documents will have to be fully attested for use in the UAE – you can find
some information on what is involved in the attestation process here.
