The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs has launched a digital service for the issuance and attestation of “To Whom It May Concern” certificates, enabling UAE nationals abroad to complete transactions in three steps through a single platform without visiting missions in person.
The initiative forms part of the second phase of the Government’s Zero Bureaucracy Programme and supports the UAE’s efforts to enhance government services through digital transformation.
Omar Obaid AlHesan AlShamsi, Undersecretary of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, said the new certificate issuance and attestation service “reflects the Ministry’s commitment to adopting innovative digital solutions that support the government’s drive to accelerate digital transformation, leverage advanced technologies, and advance sustainable development in government services,” the Emirates News Agency (WAM) reported.
