Why Birth, Marriage & Education Certificates from the UK, USA & Canada Must Be Attested for Use in Kuwait

If you're relocating to Kuwait with your family, your birth, marriage, and educational certificates are among the most critical documents needed for dependent visas, family sponsorship, school admissions, and various employment or legal procedures.
Since Kuwait is a non-Apostille country, documents issued in the UK, USA, or Canada must go through the formal certificate attestation (legalization) process:
-
Home Country Authentication
-
UK: Solicitor verification → FCDO authentication
-
USA: Notary → State Secretary → U.S. Department of State
-
Canada: Notary → Global Affairs Canada or Provincial Authentication
-
Kuwait Embassy Attestation (in the country of issuance)
Why Is This Necessary?
-
Authenticity Verification: It confirms that certificates are genuine and valid.
-
Legal Acceptance: Unattested documents are not recognized for official use in Kuwait.
-
Key Use Cases: Required for family visas, education enrollment, employment proof, and legal matters like inheritance.
