Translate Arabic to English – Certified & MOJ-Approved Translation Services in Dubai

Arabic is the official language of the United Arab Emirates, and many legal, governmental, and corporate documents are issued exclusively in Arabic. However, when documents must be submitted abroad, to foreign embassies, international courts, overseas universities, or multinational corporations, Arabic to English translation becomes essential.

At CLT Translation, we provide certified and MOJ-approved Arabic to English translation services in Dubai, ensuring accuracy, compliance, and official recognition where required.

Why Arabic to English Translation Is Important in Dubai

Dubai is an international hub where documents often move between local and global authorities. Arabic documents frequently require English translation for:

  • International visa applications
  • Foreign university admissions
  • Overseas employment
  • International legal disputes
  • Corporate partnerships
  • Foreign banking transactions
  • Cross-border real estate transactions

Accurate translation ensures that:

  • Legal meaning is preserved
  • Financial figures remain correct
  • Names and dates are consistent
  • Official requirements are met

Even minor translation errors can result in rejection or delays.

Certified Arabic to English Translation for Official Use

When Arabic documents are submitted to foreign authorities, embassies, or courts outside the UAE, certified translation may be required.

Certified translation confirms:

  • The translation is complete and accurate
  • The document reflects the original meaning
  • The translator is authorized
  • Proper certification is provided

In many legal contexts, MOJ-certified legal translation may be necessary.
