What it means
What is an attestation service?
An attestation is a signed certificate or report from an independent auditor confirming one specific fact about your business or your personal finances — not an opinion on a full set of accounts, but a conclusion on a single figure someone else needs to rely on: your net worth, your turnover, your paid-up capital, the value of a project.
The work is governed by ISAE 3000 (Revised) — the international standard for assurance engagements other than audits or reviews of historical financial statements, in force for reports dated on or after 15 December 2015. It sits between a full audit (an opinion on your entire financial statements) and an Agreed-Upon Procedures report (factual findings only, no conclusion): an attestation certificate states a real conclusion, on a narrower subject.
In the UAE, attestation certificates are asked for constantly — a Golden Visa file, a bank facility, a tender submission, a licence renewal, a partner buyout. Entrepreneurs on the Golden Visa innovative-project route need a certified auditor's letter confirming a project value of at least AED 500,000; company investors and partners are typically asked for a certified financial report from an accredited UAE audit firm. Each recipient expects its own format and wording.
The output is a short, signed certificate — but it still has to hold up to scrutiny, because someone is making a decision on it: a bank extending credit, an authority granting residency, a partner buying in. We test the underlying numbers properly, then issue a certificate worded exactly as the recipient expects.

Common questions
UAE attestation services — FAQs
The questions we're asked most about attestation certificates in the UAE — answered plainly.
What is an attestation service?
An attestation service is a signed certificate or report from an independent auditor confirming a specific fact about your business or personal finances — such as net worth, turnover, or paid-up capital — for someone who needs to rely on it, like a bank, government authority or visa applicant.
It's narrower than a full financial statement audit, which covers your entire accounts.
What is the difference between attestation and an audit?
A financial statement audit gives an opinion on your whole set of financial statements. An attestation certificate gives a conclusion on one specific fact — a net worth figure, a turnover number, a capital amount — for a stated purpose. Attestation work is usually faster and narrower in scope than a full audit.
What is the difference between attestation and Agreed-Upon Procedures (AUPs)?
In an Agreed-Upon Procedures engagement, the auditor reports only factual findings from specific procedures, with no opinion or conclusion — the reader draws their own conclusions. In an attestation engagement under ISAE 3000, the auditor goes further and states a conclusion, such as confirming that net worth is not less than a stated amount.
Do I need an auditor's letter for a UAE Golden Visa?
Often, yes. Entrepreneurs applying through the innovative-project route need a certified auditor's letter confirming their project is worth at least AED 500,000. Company investors and partners are typically asked for a certified financial report from an accredited UAE audit firm alongside their trade licence and bank statements. Requirements vary by route and emirate, so we confirm exactly what your file needs before we start.
What is a net worth certificate and who needs one?
A net worth certificate is an auditor's signed statement of an individual's or company's assets less liabilities as at a given date. It's commonly requested for Golden Visa applications, personal loans and mortgages, visa sponsorship, and investor or partner buyouts.
How long does an attestation certificate take?
Most straightforward certificates — net worth, turnover, paid-up capital — are issued within a few working days once we have the supporting evidence. Complex or first-time engagements, or those needing extra verification, can take a little longer.
Who can sign an attestation certificate in the UAE?
It must be signed by an auditor registered with the Ministry of Economy. Banks, government authorities and visa bodies will typically only accept certificates from a registered firm, so we confirm the right registration for your recipient before we start.
