Hello Ladies,

Please I would like to understand the right way to get this document - "Affidavit from embassy/consulate certifying non-relationship, if maid from same country".

I am sponsoring a maid form my home country Nigeria and this is one of the requirements. I have however received conflicting information about what this document really is and who should be attesting it.

Please advise, on if I should be doing this affidavit from Nigeria and getting attested in the UAE embassy in Nigeria or if I should be doing the affidavit in Dubai and getting it attested in the Nigeria embassy/consulate in UAE.

Does any one also know if there is a Nigeria consulate in Dubai, I have see the address and contact of the office in Abu Dhabi. Called severally, no one picked up.:(

Please I need some urgent responses ladies as flight was already booked for next week.

I got it done at my embassy here in Dubai. They asked for my and my husband's original passport and my maid's passport copy. and then they issued a letter. You can talk to your embassy regarding this.
