Please what and how do I go about my school certificate attestation. I'm about to tell my agent to pause the 3months visa since I haven't done the "attestation thing"

NONNYG:
you're right and also wrong, I will advice him to do the attestation before coming over, you don't know where his own ship is sailing to, some categories of job (mostly menial jobs) doesn't require attestation of result .

Moreover, he has 60 days grace period to still remain in 9ja after the issuance of the visa, 2 months is big enough to get everything done.

From February 4: Certificate of good conduct must for UAE work visa applicants

Expatriates applying for a job in the UAE must first obtain a certificate of good conduct in order to be issued a work permit, a UAE government body has announced.

The new rule will take effect from February 4, 2018.

The official news agency WAM reported on Monday that the UAE Coordination Committee approved a Cabinet Resolution issued in 2017 stipulating that expatriates who apply for work visa in the UAE must first obtain a certificate of good conduct — issued by either by his home country or the country where he lived for five years.

The certificate must then be attested by UAE diplomatic missions, or oversees Customer Happiness Centres at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation.

The committee, which consists of members representing relevant UAE government bodies, said the move comes as part of efforts to create a safer society.

The rule also stems from the UAE’s belief in the importance of protecting community members and ensuring that they enjoy a safe life, making the UAE as one of the most secure countries in the world.

The committee clarified that the certificate is not required from those who come to the country on a visit or tourist visa.

Congrats man because you're so lucky you pull through before the mail was sent to the UAE embassy by the MOFA. I was actually delayed at the MOFA because of the meeting were this resolution was made last Thursday.

Pursuance to this, the eligibility letter issued from the MOE will cost you just #500 & 5 working days to be ready..but if you beg the woman in charge she might sort you in 2 days (submitted mine last Friday n got it today).
NB: no extra charges!
More so, if you fail or have any grade less than C5 in English language and/or mathematics in your O'level, I'm sorry you're doomed to go rewrite your O'level nii ooO
..no begging or wuru wuru here! #beGuided

MOFA: I got there past 12pm n as stated above, I connected the man that did the signing on my initial authentication, he said "it'll take 2 days to be ready. since Friday everything has changed. we have a new Director now" pleaded buh to no avail..!
..to be continued!

Please read.

For all you Dubai prospects. It's better you gather accurate information before you make a step that will jeopardise your life.

The best way to enter Dubai is through a job offer i.e an employer applying for your work permit.

Don't believe these agents that are looking for money all over the place.

They will do a 3 months visa for you and leave you to your fate when you arrive.

And you can't hustle in Dubai like western countries. it's highly controlled.

Have counselled so many people who fell into the hands of these agents.

I met a guy on the metro one day who walked up to me asked if I was Nigerian, I said yes and he asked me to buy him a meal. My heart broke into pieces. He had a good job in naija before leaving.

I know of a marketing manager who fell into the hands of an agent. Got to Dubai after two months ticking on her visa she had to take on a maid job for two years.

So many girls forced into hard labour in hair salons at Deira for a paltry sum of 70000 naira upon conversion.

They live in unhealthy conditions, no standard medical insurance? Cant open bank accounts cos their salaries are low

Is it worth it I dare ask?

My advice if you want to go to Dubai. Don't zero out Nigeria till you are certain of a job in Dubai.

Go there for a month with your attested certificates and money to move around. Remember you can't do a side job there.

See for yourself and apply for jobs. If it clicks then your employer will process work permit for you.

If it needs for you to exit for the visa processing your employer will pay for your ticket. You get to go home and say goodbye properly without any cost on your part.

Wisdom is profitable biko!

nattybanta:

Is this your Experience? Cos they are not applicable anymore.

Cafisis:
This upcoming new law let's look into it a bit.

The Certificate of good conduct
For those that already have their visa like me and yet to enter UAE, rushing in to UAE to beat the dead line may not really be the best decision.
As it stands now 24 days is left before it comes into effect
Let us be realistic here, if 50 persons should enter UAE today, not all will get a job quickly enough before 4th February.

So if the date catches you and you don't have the certificate of good conduct then where in UAE will you get it from? Can you get it from Nigerian Embassy in Abu Dhabi?
Even if you get it from Nigeria Embassy can you attest it in MOFA UAE?

If the answer is No then every every should be done in Nigeria.
Now in Nigeria must it be issued by MOFA in Abuja? Or any other entity like state/Local Govt, Court etc.?
If it can be issued by other entity will you take it to MOFA Abuja for attestation before taking it to UAE embassy for final attestation or just directly to UAE embassy?

So guys let us reason for this matter on how best to go about it.

Maxwelu1993:


read is well
is for those applying for work visa
if you are going on tourist visa you are safe
Did they say you must present it before you get work?

beekaf:
So for the good conduct certificate.how does it look like and where do we get it and attest.

Danny4show:
please try and read like few pages back, this question has been well answered by some peeps that did theirs recently. Page 439 and 440 to be specific..You will get to know all the information you needed about attesting your documents in MOE, MOFA and UAE embassy. Wish you the best.

haywire07:



Hello house, I've gone through the attestation discussion pages of this thread and 'i think' I understand

But I misplaced my original Neco result and that's the only o'level result that I make use of. Although I have the scanned copy, will it be accepted?

justi4jesu:



No it won't be accepted, they have to see the original before your photocopy and original will be attested.

haywire07:
then must I compulsorily attest my o'level ?

Cos I don't wanna waste money attesting my waec since I didn't pass English and physics

Or is there any other way I can go about it

FYI...

Certificate of Good Conduct is called Police Character Certificate (PCC) in Nigeria. It may have another name in other countries e.g. Police Clearance Certificate.

As far as I know, you can only get the PCC at CID Headquarters, Alagbon, Lagos. Thereafter, it should be attested by MOFA Abuja and UAE Embassy Abuja before coming to UAE.

Please see below for more clarification on the new law coming into effect February 4.

Cafisis:
For those that have been contacting and disturbing me or anticipating to do so on how much I did my UAE 3months Visa and the agent who did it pls take note:
1. A travel agency did it for me @ 240k(price may have changed) 110k initial deposit and 130k when visa is out.
2. The person who introduced me to them charged me 20k
3. Total 260k
4. They asked for scanned copy data page
of my international passport and White background passport photo. When the visa came out they sent a guarantor form that will be filled by 2 guarantors in case you violate UAE visa regulations(over stay etc.) a fine of $2,200 will be paid by you or the guarantors.

Biko if you have your own agent/agency use him or them or look around for one.

But if you insist on contacting me for the agency you know what is involved.

Ibroh24:


�Please, for how long did you wait for the visa (how many weeks did the agent use to process it)?

Because I've been under processing since early December, 2017 (upto a month now). And the agent was telling me that there is too much request that's what cause delay.

Please kindly advice me on what to do because I have authenticate my certificates and collect eligibility letter.

Please kindly help me o!

Cafisis:


It took a month. I paid on 5th December and it was issued on 3rd January. I Received and printed it on 6thJan . Probably the holidays slowed it down but I don't know.
