The Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research has outlined four conditions for recognising academic qualifications obtained from institutions outside the UAE. Meeting at least one of these four conditions is mandatory for a degree to be officially recognised.

In a virtual media briefing, Dr Mohammad Al Mualla, Undersecretary for Higher Education and Scientific Research, emphasised that the goal is to ensure students enroll in reputable, internationally accredited institutions.
