Higher Education reports credential fraud cases to authorities
The article focused on the efforts of the Ministry of Higher Education and Scientific Research in the UAE to combat the forgery of academic qualifications. The Ministry stated that it refers limited cases of forged qualifications to the competent judicial authorities, which issue rulings that include imprisonment and fines of up to 30,000 dirhams. This is to protect the integrity of the education system and ensure the reliability of both local and international certificates. The Ministry also emphasizes the strengthening of digital verification systems for applications, which reached 178,600 in 2025 and 253,000 by September 2026. It urges relevant entities to verify the authenticity of qualifications whenever there is suspicion or remarks, in order to enhance trust in approved competencies and credentials.
