Understand certified translation, who accepts it and when you need it.
Certified legal translation is an official translation accepted by courts, notary public offices, government departments, embassies, and other authorities.
In the UAE, legal documents often require translation by an approved legal translator, especially when submitted to official Arabic-speaking authorities.
Examples include contracts, court documents, certificates, powers of attorney, memorandums of association, judgments, and legal notices.
A normal translation may not be accepted for official use if certified legal translation is required.
