UAE Certificate of Exportability Legalization Services

For U.S.-based manufacturers and exporters, the Certificate of Exportability is an essential document that confirms compliance with U.S. regulations for exporting certain products, particularly pharmaceuticals, biological products, and medical devices to foreign markets.

Importance of Legalizing Certificates for International Trade Compliance

In today’s global marketplace, compliance with international documentation standards is not just a regulatory formality, it’s a vital part of doing business across borders. The certificate of exportability, when properly legalized, becomes an internationally recognized assurance that your product is safe, certified, and ready for foreign markets like the UAE.

Why is Legalization required in the UAE?

Legalization is a mandatory  requirement for any U.S. document intended for official use in the UAE. Without proper legalization, the UAE authorities may:

  • Reject the certificate upon inspection.

  • Deny customs clearance for your goods.

  • Delay your shipments and increase holding costs.

Legalization validates the authenticity and origin of the Certificate of Exportability, confirming that it was issued by a recognized U.S. federal agency and is not fraudulent or altered.
