Documentation required for sponsoring stepson in the UAE?

Hi there, 

In order to gain sponsorship for your stepson you will need to have proof that your wife has full custody of the child. This will need to come from an Australian offcial source (such as a family court). 

Next, you will need a no objection letter signed by the birth father giving you permission to sponsor your stepson in the UAE. 

You will need to include your stepson's birth certificate in the application, in addition to your passport, labour contract and salary certificate (which must state that you earn over 6000DH), and a letter stating that you will support the child financially which needs to be attested in Australia and Qatar. It might help to include your marriage certificate in your application to show that you are the child's stepfather.

In order to make the letter legally binding you should consider consulting a legal expert in Australia or Qatar.
