How Private Notaries Work in Dubai
Private notaries in Dubai are regulated under Law No. 4 of 2013 Concerning Notaries Public in the Emirate of Dubai and Resolution No. 36 of 2014. They must be registered on the roll kept by the Notary Public Affairs Committee, practise through an authorised firm, and process transactions through the official electronic system. They can only carry out the notarial functions the Committee has authorised.
Private Notary or Court Notary?
Both produce notarised documents. A private notary is often chosen for flexible timing and a more personal appointment, while court notary offices handle a wide range of standard transactions. Some documents can also be notarised online by video call through official channels. We help you choose the route that fits your document and timing — see our main notary services in Dubai page.

FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a private notary in Dubai?
A private notary is a notary public who practises through an authorised firm rather than at a court notary office. In Dubai, private notaries must be registered on the roll kept by the Notary Public Affairs Committee under Dubai Courts, under Law No. 4 of 2013 and Resolution No. 36 of 2014.
What is the difference between a private notary and a public notary?
Both carry out notarial acts. Court (public) notaries work within the courts, while private notaries work through authorised firms and can usually offer more flexible appointment times. A private notary may only perform the notarial functions the Notary Public Affairs Committee has authorised.
Are private notary documents legally valid?
Yes, when the notary is registered and acting within their authorisation. Transactions are processed through the official electronic notary system, so the notarised document carries the same standing as other notarised documents.
What can a private notary notarise?
Commonly powers of attorney, affidavits and declarations, contracts and agreements, company documents and signature attestations, within the functions the notary is authorised for. Tell us your document and we will confirm the right notary route.
Can a document be notarised online?
Many documents can now be notarised by video call through official channels such as the Ministry of Justice e-Notary service and online notary routes in Dubai, with the notarised document issued digitally. Some documents still need an in-person appointment.
Do I need my document in Arabic?
Notarised documents in the UAE are commonly prepared in Arabic or as bilingual Arabic-English documents. We can draft or translate your document before the appointment through our POA and legal typing services.
What should I bring?
Usually your original passport or Emirates ID, the document to be notarised and any supporting documents. Requirements vary by document, so we send a checklist before your appointment.
How much does a private notary cost in Dubai?
Fees depend on the document, the notary’s charges and any drafting or translation. We confirm the total in a written quote before booking.
