# Notary on call in Dubai: home visit notary public services

Our notary on call service brings a notary public to you: at home, in hospital or at your office anywhere in Dubai. It is for the person who must sign but cannot travel, such as a patient, an older parent, or a family with several signers in one place. We draft the document before the visit, so the notary public only has to check, read, witness and seal.

Before you go

## What to have ready before the notary arrives

* The document, already drafted in Arabic, or Arabic and English, and checked. A visit is not the time to discover a spelling mistake.
* The signer's original ID, and the ID details of every other party.
* Any supporting paper the document relies on, such as a title deed or a vehicle ownership certificate.
* For a hospital: the ward, bed and visiting rules, and permission from the hospital if it needs one.
* A table and good light, and a quiet room.

Send your request on WhatsApp at any hour; it is answered 24/7. We confirm the visit time, the government fee and our price before anyone travels. If the signer can come in, our in-house notary public at [our Business Bay office](https://notaryservicesindubai.com/notary-services-business-bay/) is the quicker route.

* In Dubai, a private notary registered on the Dubai Courts roll may act outside the office. The Dubai Courts decision on private notary fees, in force from 2 January 2026, sets AED 1,000 per trip outside the notary's place of work.
* On the federal system, a notary may act outside the office for AED 200 per application for a Muslim woman in her waiting period, a person with a disability or a person too ill to attend, and AED 100 in approved emergencies.
* The visit changes the place, not the rules. The notary still checks identity, capacity and consent, and reads the document out.
* Remote attendance is another option for some documents, when the person can join a video session.
* Our home visit service, with the document drafted before the visit, is priced on request.

## Who can come to you

Notarial acts in the UAE are done only by public notaries, private notaries and accredited UAE consuls. For a visit in Dubai, the route is a private notary. Dubai Law No. 4 of 2013 created the private notary, a person registered on a roll kept by Dubai Courts, and the Dubai Courts fee decision sets a fee for a trip outside the office.

On the federal system the public notary also has narrow grounds to act outside the office, listed in the federal fee schedule: a Muslim woman within her waiting period, a person with a disability, a person too ill to appear, and emergencies approved by the department director. These are exceptions for people who cannot come, not a general home service.

Questions

## What the notary checks at a visit

A mobile notary visit is still a notarisation, so every check applies:

1

### Identity

The signer must show an original Emirates ID, passport or other official document.

2

### Capacity

The notary must be satisfied that the signer is legally able to sign. In a hospital this is the step that most often decides the visit. If the patient is sedated, confused or cannot communicate, the notary may not proceed.

3

### Consent

The notary makes sure the signer is acting by choice. Family members may be asked to step out.

4

### Understanding

The notary reads the document out and explains it, with an interpreter if needed.

Plan the visit for a time of day when the signer is at their clearest, and tell the notary in advance about any hearing, sight or speech difficulty.

## When a remote session is better

If the signer can hold a video call, our online notary public services may avoid a visit altogether. They run through the official remote channels: Dubai Courts remote attendance and the Ministry of Justice E-Notary System. Remote does not suit everyone: some documents and some receiving authorities need an in-person signing. See [our notarization services](https://notaryservicesindubai.com/our-services/) for the three ways to sign.

Questions

## Frequently asked questions

Not answered here? Call or WhatsApp [+971 50 264 8766](tel:+971502648766).

### Can a notary come to a hospital in Dubai?

Yes, a Dubai private notary can act outside the office, and the federal system allows it for a person too ill to appear. The notary must still be satisfied that the patient can understand and agree to what they sign.

### How much does a notary home visit cost?

The Dubai Courts fee decision sets AED 1,000 per trip for a Dubai private notary, on top of the fee for the act itself. Our preparation and booking are quoted on request.

### Is a notary on call available 24/7?

WhatsApp requests are answered 24/7. The visit itself is set for a time the notary public can attend; we confirm it when you book.

### Can a family member sign for a patient who cannot sign?

No, not in place of the patient. The person giving a power of attorney or making a statement must sign personally. If the patient cannot understand or agree, the notary cannot proceed, and the family may need a court route instead.
