Why You Need This

One Card, Many Numbers — All of Them Must Match

An ID card is short, but it is the document a bank or court uses to tie you to everything else in your file. A wrong digit in the ID number or a name spelled differently from your passport is enough to stop a KYC check or a case filing. We treat ID translations as identity documents, not as quick jobs.

1

Numbers Checked Twice

ID number, dates of birth, issue and expiry are proofread digit by digit against the original — including conversions between Hijri, Persian or other calendars and the Gregorian dates shown.

2

Name Matched to Your Passport

We spell your name exactly as it appears on your passport and existing UAE records, so banks and courts see one person across every document.

3

Both Sides, Every Field

Front and back are translated in full — address, place of birth, family or parent names and issuing authority — with seals and security features described, not ignored.

FAQ

Common Questions

My Emirates ID is already in Arabic and English. Do I need it translated? +

Usually not for use inside the UAE or where English is accepted. You need a translation when a foreign embassy, visa centre, court or bank asks for the document in its own language — for example French, German, Spanish or Chinese. Check what the receiving body asked for, or send us the requirement and we confirm.

Why would a UAE bank ask for my home-country ID translated? +

Banks verify identity and address as part of KYC. When a supporting document such as your national ID is not in Arabic or English, the bank may ask for a certified translation so its compliance team can read it. Requirements differ between banks, so follow the list your relationship manager gives you.

Can I use the translated ID in a UAE court or family case? +

UAE courts work in Arabic, so foreign documents filed in a case generally need a translation by a translator licensed by the Ministry of Justice — which is what we provide. Some files also require the original to be attested first; your lawyer or the court will confirm, and we can advise on the usual sequence.

Does the embassy also need the translation attested? +

It depends on the country and the purpose. Some embassies accept a certified translation as is; others want the original or the translation legalised, for example through MOFA attestation. We check the receiving country requirement with you before translating and can arrange the attestation step.

My ID shows dates in the Hijri or Persian calendar. How do you handle that? +

We translate each date exactly as printed. Where the card shows only a non-Gregorian date, we keep the original date and can add the Gregorian equivalent as a clearly marked translator note, so the receiving body is not confused.

My name on the ID is spelled differently from my passport. What happens? +

This is common with names transliterated from Arabic, Urdu or Cyrillic. We follow your passport spelling for consistency where the source allows it, and flag any real difference before delivery. If the documents genuinely conflict, the receiving body may need a supporting document — we tell you upfront rather than after rejection.
