How to Get a KHDA Student Academic History Certificate
Request an official KHDA certificate showing a student’s enrolment history at Dubai private educational institutions.
What the official route means
A KHDA student academic history certificate is the official record showing a student’s enrolment history at Dubai private educational institutions recorded in KHDA’s system. It is useful when an authority, school or overseas institution needs verified history rather than an informal school letter.
What to do next
1. Check the student record first
Confirm the student’s Emirates ID or passport details, school names and attendance years. Ask the current school to correct a mismatch before ordering a certificate.
2. Use the KHDA parent or student service
Sign in through the official KHDA channel with UAE Pass and select the academic-history service. Use the guardian relationship registered in the education record.
3. Review the displayed history
Check spelling, institutions, grades or years before payment or issue. A missing old school may require evidence and a record correction.
4. Verify the electronic output
Download the attested certificate from the official account and retain the transaction reference. Send the verifiable digital file rather than an edited scan.
Important: Academic history is not the same as a leaving certificate, grade card or certificate attestation. Ask the receiving organisation which document it needs.
Before you act
KHDA lists the service for students and guardians. Live fees, output language and processing time should be checked in the service before submission.
