Fast, MOJ‑certified, and 100 % acceptance‑ready translations—delivered the same day.
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.


The Importance of Accurate Birth Certificate Translations
Accuracy is more than word‑for‑word conversion; it’s total compliance with legal stipulations. Even a single typo can derail a court case or visa application. Our QA workflow combines native‑speaker review, legal‑linguist checks, and MOJ stamps to guarantee precision.
Who Can Provide Certified Translation in Dubai?
Only translators licensed by the UAE Ministry of Justice can issue legally valid translations. OT House of Translation is proudly MOJ‑certified, so every birth certificate we translate carries full legal weight with immigration, courts, and government entities across the Emirates.
