How Indian Shipping Professionals Are Contributing to the UAE's Ports And Global Trade Growth

SiZA Global2 May 20268 min readReviewed by SiZA Global Documentation Review Team

Indian shipping talent is helping Gulf ports connect Asia, Africa and Europe.

Why UAE shipping and logistics files run on commercial attestation

Jebel Ali, Khalifa Port, Sharjah Hamriyah and the wider UAE shipping ecosystem host Indian senior shipping professionals across freight forwarding, customs clearing, ship agency, port operations, container terminal management and maritime trading. The commercial documents that move with each shipment need the standard UAE attestation chain.

The chain is Chamber of Commerce attestation, then MEA attestation, then UAE Embassy attestation in New Delhi and UAE MOFA ratification on arrival. Power of Attorney to the UAE shipping agent or freight forwarder needs the same route. Certified Arabic translation by listed translators applies where the UAE customs or the destination authority specifies it.

What this kind of file usually carries

  • Commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading or airway bill
  • Certificate of origin (chamber-issued)
  • Power of Attorney to the UAE shipping agent
  • Indian company incorporation, MOA, AOA, GST, PAN
  • Trade licence and export registration (IEC, RCMC)
  • Shipping professional's degree, experience and PCC

Where SiZA Global fits in this preparation

We handle the India side: Chamber of Commerce attestation, MEA attestation, UAE Embassy attestation in New Delhi, certified Arabic translation by listed translators, MEA apostille on personal documents for the shipping professional's visa and tracked return of originals. The UAE customs decision, the visa stamping and the MOFA ratification belong to the UAE side. We do not promise outcomes there.
