The Ministry of Foreign Affairs launched an electronic ratification system with the use of high-quality security tags for the ratification of official documents as well as issuing the Apostille certificate accredited by 107 countries across the world instead of using the traditional monetary stamps.
This is in line with the keenness of the ministry under the vision of the Kingdom of Bahrain and e-government to offer pioneering and outstanding services based on the best international electronic practices.
The new security tag comprises high-quality security indicators to avoid counterfeiting operations in regards to the ratification of official documents as well as a security-advanced hologram for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. This is in addition to printing the QR Code on the sticker to affirm the ratification process by the party receiving the document.
The service was launched at the ratification office at the Manama Centre building as well as the ratification office at the Labour Market Regulatory Authority (LMRA) as a first phase, to be followed by the embassies of the Kingdom of Bahrain abroad.
The new ratification system is in line with the efforts by the Consulate Directorate at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to develop and facilitate services as well as to keep pace with the technological advancements in the Kingdom of Bahrain.
