Arabic to English and English to Arabic translation for personal, immigration, legal, academic and business documents, with clear formatting for formal use.
Use this page for Arabic to English documents that need to be understood by a UK organisation, or for English to Arabic documents being prepared for an Arabic-speaking recipient.
Arabic varies by country and context, especially in names, administrative terminology and document conventions. Tell us where the document was issued and where the translation will be used so the translator has the right context. For UK document requirements, see our Arabic to English certified translation guide.
Birth, marriage, divorce, death, passport and identity records often need consistent names, dates and place names.
Police certificates, immigration evidence, diplomas, transcripts and supporting certificates may need formal translation.
Contracts, company records, bank statements, property documents and legal correspondence require careful terminology.
Arabic names can have more than one reasonable Latin-script spelling. If a passport or another official record already uses an English spelling, send it with the document so names can be kept consistent across the translation.
Arabic documents may use different numeral styles, date formats and administrative references. These should be translated in context and kept easy to compare with the source rather than being silently normalised.
Official stamps, seals and handwritten notes can form part of the meaning of a document. Upload clear images of these areas and include reverse sides or continuation pages when they contain relevant information.
Send a complete scan or photograph of every relevant page.
