ICV Certification Services in Dubai, UAE

Strengthen Your Tender Opportunities with Atharidca's ICV Expertise

The UAE Ministry of Industry and Advanced Technology (MoIAT) has introduced the National In-Country Value (ICV) Program, with the objective of accelerating local economic development through Emiratization, the development of local industries, and attracting foreign direct investments. Businesses seeking to collaborate with government and semi-government organizations — including ADNOC, ADDED, and Aldar — need to obtain an ICV Certificate in order to enhance their competitiveness at the time of procurement.

At Atharidca, we offer end-to-end ICV Certification services in Dubai to help businesses achieve full compliance and boost their ICV scores efficiently.

What is an ICV Certificate?

An ICV Certificate reflects a company's economic contribution within the UAE. The score is calculated based on several financial and operational metrics, including local investment, Emirati workforce, exports, and third-party spending. Higher scores can improve your company's chances of winning high-value government contracts.

Atharidca, as a trusted ICV advisor, helps you understand your eligibility, optimize your ICV score, and submit compliant documents to the approved certifying bodies.

Who Needs an ICV Certificate?

• Tier 1 Suppliers (direct suppliers to participating entities)
• Tier 2 & 3 Suppliers (indirect vendors looking to support larger contracts)
• UAE-based and foreign companies bidding for public-sector projects

Even though not mandatory in all tenders, having a valid ICV certificate significantly strengthens your bid.
