Why You Need This

A Judgment Is Only as Useful as Its Translation

Courts and execution judges act on what the operative part says. A translation that blurs who owes what, misstates an amount or renders "final" as "first-instance" can delay an enforcement request or a filing abroad. We translate judgments with the precision of a legal document, not a general text.

1

Court Terminology, Correctly Mapped

Plaintiff and defendant, appellant and respondent, decree absolute, res judicata, writ of execution — rendered with their established Arabic or English equivalents, not literal guesses.

2

Every Stamp and Certificate Included

Finality certificates, execution formulas, court seals, apostilles and legalisation stamps are translated too — they are often what the receiving court checks first.

3

Consistent Names Across the File

Party names, case numbers and amounts are kept identical across the judgment, the appeal and related records, and matched to passports or trade licences you provide.

FAQ

Common Questions

I have a foreign judgment I want to enforce in the UAE. What translation do I need? +

Proceedings before onshore UAE courts are in Arabic, so a foreign judgment usually needs a certified Arabic translation, together with its supporting certificates (such as proof that it is final). The judgment is normally legalised or apostilled in the issuing country first. Requirements vary by court and by country, so your lawyer should confirm the exact bundle — we then translate all of it.

Can you translate a UAE judgment for use in another country? +

Yes. We translate Arabic judgments into English and other languages. Many countries also require the judgment to be attested in the UAE before or after translation — the order depends on the destination. Tell us where it is going and we confirm the steps for your case.

Do you translate divorce and custody judgments? +

Yes — divorce decrees, custody, maintenance and visitation rulings are among the judgments we translate most. They are often needed to update marital status, register a child, travel with children or file in another country's family court.

Can you advise whether my judgment will be enforced? +

No. We are a translation company: we provide accurate certified translations, not legal advice, and we cannot predict how a court will rule. For enforceability, deadlines or strategy, please consult a UAE-licensed lawyer — we regularly work alongside law firms on their translation needs.

My judgment comes from the DIFC or ADGM courts. Does it need translating? +

DIFC and ADGM courts work in English, so an English judgment may be used there as it is. If it is to be executed through an onshore court or used in an Arabic-speaking jurisdiction, an Arabic translation is usually needed. We translate in both directions.

How long does a judgment translation take? +

It depends on length. A short decree can often be ready the same or next day; a long commercial judgment takes longer. We give you a delivery time with the quote, and rush service is available when a filing deadline is close.
