Certified English–Arabic Translation in the UAE — Legal and Official Documents
Certified translation between English and Arabic for documents that need to be accepted by UAE government entities: contracts and agreements, birth, marriage and academic certificates, court documents, and immigration paperwork. Official processes in the UAE generally require an Arabic version of foreign-language documents, and the translation must come from a certified legal translator — an ordinary translation, however accurate, is typically not accepted.
Legal translation is a discipline of precision: defined terms, party names, dates and figures must carry over exactly, and the certified output mirrors the source document's structure including stamps, seals and signature blocks noted in place. I translate contracts both directions — Arabic originals into English for foreign counterparties, and English agreements into Arabic for use before UAE authorities — serving businesses and individuals across Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Sharjah.
Confidentiality is built into the process: documents are handled only by the translator, stored encrypted during the job, and deleted on request after delivery. An NDA can be signed before you send anything. Pricing is per page in AED, agreed up front from a scan of your documents — no surprises after the work starts.
