Family & education · Reviewed 26 September 2026

If you need to replace lost school certificate Dubai, use the exact record and authority involved. The live official service is the final source for eligibility, documents, timing and any calculated charge.

Check that the service fits

KHDA describes this service for lost or damaged certificates from permanently closed private schools in Dubai. If the school remains open, contact it first.

Gather identity and study evidence

Prepare the student’s Emirates ID and any copy, report, school name, attendance dates or old correspondence that can help KHDA locate the record.

Submit one complete request

Use the official service and enter historic details carefully, including former names where relevant. Respond through the same application if KHDA requests more proof.

Review the replacement

Check the student, school, grade and year before using it. If a foreign authority also needs attestation or equivalency, treat that as a separate step.

Use official channels only. Never share an OTP, banking password or unrestricted UAE Pass approval with an agent.
