Birth Certificate – Embassy Legalization & Authentication for Arab Countries

At the Arab American Chamber of Commerce (AACC)®, located in Washington D.C., we provide fast and secure embassy legalization services for U.S.-issued birth certificates intended for use in Arab countries. Whether you are applying for dual citizenship, sponsoring a family member, getting married abroad, or handling legal matters overseas, your birth certificate must be properly authenticated and legalized before it will be accepted by foreign authorities.

We simplify the entire process, ensuring your document is valid, certified, and fully compliant with your destination country's legal and embassy-specific requirements.

Why Do You Need to Legalize a Birth Certificate?

When submitting a U.S. birth certificate for official use in the Arab world, the destination country often requires that the document undergoes a multi-step authentication and legalization process. This applies to situations such as:

• Immigration and visa applications
  
  

• Marriage abroad
  
  

• Family sponsorship
  
  

• Dual nationality or passport issuance
  
  

• Legal representation or estate matters
  
  

Our Legalization Process for Birth Certificates

AACC offers a complete legalization solution for birth certificates. Here’s how it works:

1. State-Level Certification
   Your birth certificate must first be a certified long-form copy issued by the state vital records office.
   
   

2. U.S. Department of State Authentication
   We submit your certified document to the U.S. Department of State in Washington D.C. for federal authentication (processing time: 9 business days).
   
   

3. Embassy Legalization
   The authenticated document is then submitted to the embassy of the destination Arab country for final legalization.
   
   

4. Final Delivery
   Once completed, we return your fully legalized birth certificate—ready for official use abroad.
