Authenticate U.S. Medical Letters for Use in the Middle East & North Africa
The Arab American Chamber of Commerce (AACC)®, based in Washington D.C., provides professional legalization and authentication services for U.S.-issued medical letters and health-related documents. Whether you're traveling abroad for treatment, applying for medical leave, or sponsoring a family member's care, your medical letter must be legalized to be officially accepted by Arab embassies and foreign authorities.
We handle the complete legalization process—ensuring your medical documents are processed accurately and recognized overseas.
Legalized medical letters may be needed for:
🛂 Visa or travel permit applications for medical reasons
🏥 Medical treatment abroad or hospital admission
👨⚕️ Supporting documents for disability or sick leave claims
👩👩👧👦 Family sponsorship based on medical dependency
📑 Health clearance for work, study, or immigration
🧳 Proof of medical need for extended stay or entry exception
📌 Arab embassies and ministries often require medical documents to be certified and legalized before accepting them as valid evidence.
We legalize a wide range of medical records and statements, including:
Doctor’s letters or affidavits (on clinic/hospital letterhead)
Specialist medical reports
Hospital discharge summaries
Medical travel necessity letters
Sick leave certifications
Immunization and vaccination confirmations
Medical certificates issued by licensed physicians or surgeons
🖊 Documents must be signed by a licensed medical professional and notarized before they are eligible for embassy legalization.
🏥 We can assist you or your clinic in preparing notarized versions correctly.
