Certified Arabic Translations
Need your Arabic documents accepted by the UK Home Office, UKVI, a university, a solicitor, or a bank? You’re in the right place.
With certified Arabic translation, you get an accurate Arabic-to-English translation plus a signed certification statement that confirms it’s a true and accurate translation of the original. It’s the format UK authorities expect—and it helps you submit your application confidently, without delays caused by missing certification details.
Why Arabic translations are often rejected
(and how you avoid that)
Arabic documents can be tricky—not because the language is “hard”, but because official reviewers need consistency and traceability.
Common issues we prevent:
- Name spelling mismatches (passport vs certificate vs family book)
- Right-to-left formatting errors that change meaning or confuse layouts
- Hijri/Gregorian date confusion or incomplete date conversion
- Missing certification elements (signature, date, contact details, accuracy statement)
- Poor handling of stamps and annotations, especially on civil status documents
You get a translation that reads naturally in English and keeps official details precise—so your submission stands up to scrutiny.
