School or College Diploma – Embassy Legalization for Arab Countries

Get Your U.S. Degree Certified for Use in the Middle East and North Africa

The Arab American Chamber of Commerce (AACC)®, located in Washington D.C., provides fast and professional embassy legalization services for U.S.-issued diplomas from high schools, colleges, universities, and technical institutes. If you're planning to work, study, or immigrate to an Arab country, your diploma must be properly legalized to be accepted by foreign ministries, employers, and educational institutions.

We handle the entire authentication and legalization process—so you can use your degree abroad without delays or rejections.

Why Do You Need to Legalize a Diploma?

Arab governments, universities, and employers do not recognize foreign diplomas unless they are authenticated and legalized by the proper U.S. and embassy authorities. This process validates your degree’s authenticity and confirms its legal standing.

Legalized diplomas are required for:

• 📚 University enrollment or transfer
  
  

• 👨‍🏫 Job applications and professional licensing
  
  

• 🛂 Visa, immigration, or family sponsorship cases
  
  

• 👩‍⚕️ Medical, engineering, and teaching credentials
  
  

• 🏛 Ministry of Education or labor approval
  
  

What Types of Diplomas Can Be Legalized?

We legalize diplomas from:

• Public and Private High Schools
  
  

• Accredited Colleges and Universities (Associate’s, Bachelor’s, Master’s, PhD)
  
  

• Trade Schools, Technical Institutes, and Online Programs (if properly accredited)
  
  

📌 The diploma must be signed and issued on school letterhead.
🖊 You will also need to obtain a notarized copy or notarized verification letter from the school registrar.

Full Legalization Process

We take care of every step to ensure your diploma is accepted overseas:

1. Notarization
