The two Kuwait attestation tracks
Kuwait splits attestation into two tracks. The standard track is HEC, MOFA, and the Kuwait Embassy stamp used for most employment and family visas. The second track adds Kuwait Cultural Office degree verification, which hospitals and some government employers ask for after the embassy step.
We confirm the exact requirement with your sponsor before filing, so the document does not bounce between offices. If your employer needs the Cultural Office step, we file that separately after the embassy stamp.
Family documents (marriage, birth, FRC) follow the standard NADRA, MOFA, Embassy sequence. They do not usually need the Cultural Office step.
The Kuwait Embassy takes about 5 to 7 working days after MOFA. Cultural Office verification can add another 2 to 3 weeks depending on the qualification.

Embassy stamp (and Cultural Office if needed)

What Kuwait customers told us
Feedback from people who filed Kuwait visa documents through us.
"Kuwait Embassy attestation plus Cultural Office verification, Attestdone did both. The Cultural Office part added three weeks but the team kept following up and my Kuwait City hospital employer accepted everything."

MOFA Attestation
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs is the second stamp on any Pakistani document heading overseas. After the issuing body confirms the document (HEC for degrees, IBCC for school certificates, NADRA for personal documents), MOFA adds its own stamp that confirms the prior verification. MOFA runs two routes. The traditional attestation feeds into the embassy step for non-Hague destinations like the UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, and Malaysia. The apostille route is a single stamp valid in Hague Convention member states that accept Pakistani apostilles, including Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, China, the UK, Australia, and others. Germany, the Netherlands, and Poland are members but objected to Pakistan's accession, so the apostille is not accepted there and we verify each case with the receiving office. Pakistan acceded to the Hague Convention, and the apostille route entered into force on 9 March 2023. Our main office is in Lahore, where we coordinate intake, customer support, and nationwide dispatch. MOFA operates from offices in Lahore and Islamabad, so we file at the location that fits your document and route. Legal documents such as power of attorney, court orders, and affidavits, and commercial documents such as board resolutions, certificates of origin, and export invoices, run separate tracks at MOFA with their own fees and timelines. Legal papers must be notarised first. Commercial papers must be verified by the Chamber of Commerce or SECP before MOFA will accept them. Both classes are covered on this page. Personal and educational documents run 2 to 3 working days at MOFA, and legal and commercial files 3 to 5. Express service can finish in about a day for eligible files.
Saudi Embassy Attestation
Saudi Arabia is a Hague Convention member (since 7 December 2022), so the MOFA apostille is accepted for most filings. Many Saudi employers and regulators still ask for the embassy stamp, and some regulated professions add Mosadaqa, so we confirm the route for your specific case before filing. Where the embassy route applies, HEC or NADRA verifies the document first, then MOFA attests it, and finally the Saudi Embassy in the Diplomatic Enclave adds the embassy stamp. The Saudi Embassy processes documents in batches. Submission windows and processing schedules can shift without notice, which is why having someone at the counter regularly matters. Our team visits the embassy most working days and knows the current acceptance window. For medical professionals, engineers, and teachers, some Saudi employers also need Mosadaqa verification from the Saudi Cultural Mission. That is a separate process that can add 3 to 5 weeks. We confirm with your employer whether Mosadaqa is needed before starting, so you do not pay for a step you may not need. Family visa files for Saudi usually need a NADRA marriage certificate, birth certificates for dependents, and sometimes a family registration certificate. All of these follow the same NADRA, MOFA, Saudi Embassy sequence.
UAE Embassy Attestation
Dubai and Abu Dhabi employers need your degree attested before they will issue a work visa or process your residency. The sequence is the same as Saudi Arabia. HEC or NADRA first, MOFA second, UAE Embassy third. Once you land in the UAE with a UAE Embassy-stamped degree, the final step is a UAE MOFA stamp at a typing centre in the UAE. That step takes about a day and can be done locally. Everything before it must be completed in Pakistan. Family sponsorship files for the UAE follow the same pattern. NADRA marriage certificates, birth certificates, and family registration certificates all need the three-stamp sequence before the UAE visa office will accept them. Our team files at the UAE Embassy in the Diplomatic Enclave through VFS Global, which handles document submission for the embassy. Documents that have already completed HEC and MOFA go straight to the embassy queue. If any prior step is missing, we complete it first as part of the same order.
