Understanding the Mosadaqa Process for KSA Legalization
If you’re planning to obtain a visa to Saudi Arabia, ensuring that your educational documents are properly legalized is a crucial step in the process. Recently, Saudi Arabia introduced a new system called Mosadaqa—a digital verification process designed to simplify and streamline the document legalization procedure. Available in over 50 countries across the Middle East, Asia, Europe, and South America, Mosadaqa represents a significant move towards efficiency and digitalization in document processing.
Why is Mosadaqa Verification Required?
Mosadaqa verification is a necessary step for anyone seeking to have their educational documents attested by the Saudi Arabian embassy. Without going through Mosadaqa, the embassy will not process your documents. While Saudi Arabia has joined the Hague Apostille Convention—meaning documents from Hague-member countries no longer need embassy stamps—educational documents still require Mosadaqa verification for submission to the Saudi authorities.
A Key Rule for Mosadaqa Verification
If you’re looking to verify your Master’s degree, you must first have your Bachelor’s degree verified through the Mosadaqa system. The system will not allow you to proceed with the higher-level qualification verification until your Bachelor’s degree has been completed through the process.
Basic Requirements for Mosadaqa Verification
To ensure a smooth process, here’s a list of documents you’ll need for Mosadaqa verification:
- The certificate requiring verification
- Transcript
- A copy of your passport and local ID
- Authority letter (if applicable)
- Offer letter (for further confirmation)
- Passport-sized photograph
Timeline for Mosadaqa Verification
There is no fixed timeline for Mosadaqa verification, and the time it takes can vary depending on factors like:
- The response time from your educational institution
- The accuracy and completeness of the submitted documents
To avoid delays, it’s essential to ensure that all information is accurate and your documents are complete when submitting your application.
