What happened?
Abu Dhabi has introduced a new digital service that lets parents obtain an attested private school fees certificate through the TAMM platform in around six minutes for Dh15.
Who is affected?
Parents, students, private schools, scholarship applicants, employers and government entities that require proof of school tuition fees.
Why does it matter?
The service reduces paperwork, speeds up official processes and supports Abu Dhabi’s wider digital government transformation.
Parents in Abu Dhabi can now obtain an attested school fees certificate online in as little as six minutes through the TAMM government services platform. The new service, introduced by TAMM, enables users to receive a certified electronic certificate detailing private school tuition fees for a fee of Dh15, without uploading any supporting documents.
The move makes it easier for families to access an official document that is often required for scholarship applications, financial assistance, employer reimbursements and government transactions. It also reflects Abu Dhabi’s ongoing efforts to make public services faster, smarter and fully digital.
What is the new TAMM school fees certificate service?
The latest service allows parents and students enrolled in private schools across Abu Dhabi to obtain an officially attested school fees certificate entirely online.
According to TAMM, the certificate is generated digitally and can be downloaded after completing a simple online application. Users do not need to visit a customer service centre or provide additional paperwork, making the process significantly quicker than traditional document requests.
The service fee has been set at Dh15, while the average processing time is approximately six minutes, provided all required information is available through the government’s digital systems.
The certificate confirms a student’s tuition fee details and is recognised for official purposes where proof of school fees is required.
How can parents apply for the certificate?
Applying for the certificate has been designed to be straightforward.
Parents can complete the entire process through the TAMM platform in four simple steps:
- Log in using UAE PASS
- Submit the online application
- Pay the Dh15 service fee electronically
- Download the certified digital certificate
Since the service is integrated with Abu Dhabi’s digital government systems, applicants are not required to upload supporting documents.
Using UAE PASS also helps ensure secure identity verification while allowing users to complete the transaction remotely.
When is the school fees certificate needed?
An attested school fees certificate is commonly requested for several official purposes.
According to TAMM, the document can be used when dealing with both government and private sector organisations, including:
- Scholarship applications
- Financial aid programmes
- Employer education reimbursement schemes
- Government transactions requiring proof of tuition fees
- Other official educational documentation
For many families, obtaining these certificates has traditionally involved contacting schools, waiting for administrative processing and collecting physical documents.
The new digital option significantly reduces the time required while providing an electronically certified document that can be downloaded immediately after approval.
How does this support Abu Dhabi’s digital government strategy?
The launch of this education service is another step in Abu Dhabi’s wider digital transformation programme.
TAMM serves as the emirate’s unified digital government platform, bringing together hundreds of public services under one portal. Residents can already access services related to healthcare, housing, business licensing, transport, family services, education, and social support through the same platform.
By integrating government entities and using UAE PASS for digital identity verification, Abu Dhabi continues to reduce paperwork and improve customer experience.
The government has invested heavily in paperless services over the past few years, enabling residents to complete many applications remotely while reducing waiting times and administrative procedures.
The school fees certificate service fits into this broader vision of making government services more accessible and efficient for everyone.
Why could this make life easier for families?
Although requesting a school fee certificate may seem like a simple administrative task, it often becomes urgent during scholarship deadlines, employer reimbursement submissions or government application periods.
Being able to receive a certified document within minutes helps parents avoid unnecessary delays.
The new service also reduces the need for physical visits to schools or government offices, saving time for working parents and improving convenience throughout the academic year.
As more education-related services move online, families can expect quicker access to official documentation whenever required.
Why It Matters?
The introduction of this digital service offers practical benefits for thousands of families across Abu Dhabi.
Key advantages include:
- Faster access to officially attested school fee certificates
- No need to upload supporting documents
- Secure verification through UAE PASS
- Lower administrative burden for parents
- Easier applications for scholarships and financial assistance
- Continued progress towards paperless government services
For residents, it means less time spent on paperwork and quicker access to essential education documents whenever they are needed.
