Birth Certificate Translation: Legal + Accepted by Embassies in UAE

Why Do You Need Birth Certificate Translation Services in Dubai?

In Dubai, applying for a visa necessitates meeting specific documentation requirements, among which is the accurate translation of birth certificates into Arabic. The UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFAIC) and foreign embassies require translations that conform with local legal standards. OT House of Translation’s MOJ‑licensed linguists ensure your document meets every rule the first time—saving you from costly resubmissions.

Our MOJ‑certified linguists also translate marriage certificates, driving licences, contracts, agreements, and powers of attorney with the same speed and accuracy.

The Importance of Arabic ↔ English Translation for Legal Documents
