Immigration and visa document translation in Abu Dhabi.

Immigration and visa document translation in Abu Dhabi.

Certified translation for all immigration and residency documents.

The United Arab Emirates attracts millions of residents and visitors from around the world, and immigration and residency procedures require the submission of translated and certified documents in Arabic. Whether you are applying for a residency visa, family sponsorship, residency renewal, or any immigration-related procedure, the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship, Customs, and Port Security (ICP) and the General Directorate of Residency and Foreigners Affairs (GDRFA) mandate that all foreign documents be translated into Arabic by a licensed translator.

Smart World Legal Translation (SWLT) offers specialized translation services for all immigration and visa documents. The documents we frequently translate include passports and visa pages, birth certificates, marriage contracts, certificates of good conduct, educational certificates, employment contracts, salary certificates, lease agreements, bank statements, and medical reports.

Our team fully understands the documentation requirements for each type of visa and procedure, and we ensure that every translation meets the necessary standards to guarantee acceptance on the first attempt. Contact us at +971 2 562 0022 or via WhatsApp for immediate assistance.

Documentation requirements for different types of visas.

Immigration procedures in the UAE vary and each requires a specific set of translated documents. For a work visa, educational certificates, the employment contract, and passport are typically required for translation. Family sponsorship requires the translation of the marriage certificate, children's birth certificates, proof of income, and the rental contract. The golden visa requires additional documents depending on the applicant's category, whether they are an investor, entrepreneur, or possess exceptional talent.

SWLT is fully licensed by the UAE Ministry of Justice, and our translations are accepted without exception by the Federal Authority for Identity and Citizenship, the General Directorate of Residency, UAE embassies, courts, and all government departments. We ensure that every detail is translated accurately and that the format of the translation matches the original document to facilitate review by immigration officials.

For clients who are pressed for time — as immigration deadlines are often urgent — we offer same-day translation services for immigration documents. Just bring your original documents to our office in Abu Dhabi or send a clear copy via email or WhatsApp, and your certified translation will be ready within hours.

Comprehensive support for immigration documents and visas.

Our expertise includes documents issued by civil registries, religious authorities, courts, and consulates worldwide. We have handled nearly every format and language, and our translators know how to tackle the unique challenges each presents.

In addition to translation, we offer comprehensive document authentication services.

We can advise on the specific requirements for your country and coordinate the authentication process on your behalf in many cases.

We also offer special rates for clients who need multiple document translations for a single immigration application, saving you time and money.
