What Is an Apostille?
An Apostille is an international certificate issued under the Hague Apostille Convention that authenticates public documents for use in other member countries.
The Philippines is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, meaning Philippine public documents intended for use in another Hague Convention country are generally issued with an Apostille by the appropriate Philippine authority.
However, the UAE is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Therefore, documents intended for official use in the UAE generally require embassy legalization and UAE MOFA attestation, rather than an Apostille alone.
