Conditions, time and validity

- Processing time
- No official time published; staff confirm.
- Validity of the result
- Until the signatory is removed or the establishment data change.
- Where it is applied for
- MOHRE website and app (with UAE PASS of the owner or authorised signatory), Tasheel/business service centres and the Tawseel mobile service. The centre types the request at a Tasheel centre or files it online for you.
Steps at the authority
- Check the signatory on the immigration establishment card.
- Type the signature approval request with the documents.
- MOHRE approves; the signatory can then approve transactions (UAE PASS or the Electronic Authorisation in the MOHRE app, which replaced the e-signature card in February 2026).
Tips that save you a trip
- If you are adding a new signatory, the full 'update establishment file' service may be needed instead; we check this first.
Common reasons for rejection or delay
- Signatory not on the immigration establishment card.
- Authorisation not notarised.
