Menu Translation Services
In Dubai’s vibrant and multicultural hospitality scene, accurate menu translation plays a crucial role in customer experience, brand reputation, and food safety. Since 1996, Communication Legal Translation Est. (CLT) has been providing professional Menu Translation Services in Dubai and across the UAE, supporting restaurants, cafés, hotels, resorts, food chains, catering companies, and hospitality groups.

Poor translation can confuse customers, misrepresent dishes, or even cause allergen-related issues.
