Legal Translation Services in UAE
Legal Translation Services
In the United Arab Emirates, legal and official documents must comply with strict language and regulatory requirements. Arabic is the official language, and documents submitted to courts and government authorities must be in Arabic or translated by a Ministry of Justice (MOJ)-approved legal translator to be considered valid. At Reyson Badger, we offer professional legal translation services in UAE, providing accurate, certified, and legally compliant translations for individuals, businesses, and law firms, ensuring your documents are accepted by UAE courts, ministries, and regulatory bodies without delays or rejection.
What Is Legal Translation in the UAE?
Legal translation is the translation of legal, official and business documents while maintaining their original meaning, legal terminology and context. In the UAE, certain documents submitted to courts or authorities may need to be translated by a translator or translation house registered under the applicable UAE regulations.
Unlike general translation, legal translation requires a strong understanding of legal terminology and the specific requirements associated with official documents.

Our certified legal translation services in UAE are designed to meet the official requirements of courts, government authorities, and regulatory bodies, where documents must be accurately translated into Arabic for legal acceptance. At Reyson Badger, we provide professional legal translation in UAE, ensuring every document preserves its original legal meaning, terminology, and intent. Our services cover contracts, court documents, certificates, power of attorney, and corporate records, delivered with precision and compliance. We also offer Arabic legal translation in UAE along with multilingual support, including English, French, and other major languages, enabling smooth communication for individuals and businesses across legal and official processes.

Arabic-English Legal Translation Services
Arabic and English are widely used for legal and official documentation in the UAE. Our Arabic-English legal translation services help individuals and businesses translate documents while preserving their original legal meaning, terminology and structure.
We also provide multilingual legal translation based on the requirements of your document and the authority where it will be submitted.
Legal Translation for Businesses
Businesses may require legal translation during company formation, licensing, commercial transactions, employment procedures and regulatory activities. Accurate translation helps businesses maintain consistency across important documents and communicate effectively with government authorities, clients and business partners.
Our business legal translation services cover contracts, agreements, corporate documents, shareholder documents, board resolutions, employment documents and other commercial records.
Legal Translation for Individuals
Individuals may need legal translation for immigration, education, employment, family matters and other official procedures. We assist with the translation of personal and official documents such as certificates, passports, powers of attorney, court documents, academic records and police clearance certificates.
Legal Translation for Courts and Government Authorities
Legal documents submitted to UAE courts and certain official authorities may be subject to specific translation requirements. Under Federal Decree-Law No. 22 of 2022, the UAE regulates the translation profession and maintains a list of registered translators and translation houses. The law also sets requirements regarding the acceptance of translated documents by courts and authorities.
We help clients prepare accurate translations according to the intended use of their documents, reducing the risk of errors, delays or rejection.
Legal Translation and Document Attestation
Legal translation and document attestation are separate services. Depending on the document and the authority receiving it, a translated document may also require notarisation, attestation or other legalisation procedures.
Before starting the process, it is important to identify the receiving authority and understand its specific document requirements. Our team can help you determine the appropriate translation and related documentation services for your requirements.
