Know This First
Türkiye issues apostilles, many records come as e-Devlet printouts, and Turkish names do not map neatly onto Arabic. Each of these can hold up a file.
Türkiye is a party to the Apostille Convention; the UAE is not. For a non-Apostille country, Türkiye's Foreign Ministry describes this route: the governorship or district governorship (Valilik or Kaymakamlık) where the document was issued, then the Ministry's legalisation unit. After that comes the UAE Embassy in Ankara or the Consulate in Istanbul, then MOFA in the UAE. Commercial papers may also need a chamber of commerce stamp.
Barcoded e-Devlet documents can be verified online in Türkiye, but the legalisation chain needs a document an authority can stamp. If a printout is refused, ask the issuing office (nüfus müdürlüğü, the university or the court) for a signed and sealed copy.
A Turkish divorce or custody judgment carries a finality annotation (kesinleşme şerhi) once appeal periods end. UAE courts usually want to see that the judgment is final, so get the annotated copy before you start the legalisation chain.

How It Works
For a UAE authority, complete the Valilik or Kaymakamlık stamp, the Foreign Ministry stamp, UAE mission legalisation and MOFA attestation first, unless the receiving body tells you otherwise.
WhatsApp a scan of all pages, including every page of a marriage booklet and every stamp. We confirm the page count and price first.
A legal translator renders the document and its stamps. Names, ID numbers (T.C. Kimlik No) and dates are checked against your passport and UAE records.
You receive the signed, stamped translation as a PDF, e-Devlet printouts included. A hard copy is available on request, and many register extracts can be delivered the same day.

Apostille, legalisation and MOFA fees are outside our price and are paid to the issuing bodies. We do not notarise; if your file needs it, our legal partner handles notarisation.
FAQ
Our public rate is AED 150 per 200-word page, excluding 5% VAT, in either direction. A population register extract is usually one or two pages. We confirm the total from your scan before starting.
Türkiye's Foreign Ministry describes the route for non-Apostille countries as the Valilik or Kaymakamlık of the place of issue, then the Ministry's legalisation unit. The UAE Embassy in Ankara or Consulate in Istanbul then legalises it, and MOFA attests it in the UAE. Confirm the current requirements with the UAE mission before you start.
Not by itself. The UAE is not a party to the Apostille Convention, so it expects embassy legalisation and MOFA attestation. Our apostille vs attestation guide explains why.
We match the Arabic spelling already on your UAE visa or Emirates ID. Where there is none, we transliterate by Turkish pronunciation: the dotless ı and dotted İ are different letters, ğ lengthens the vowel before it, and c is pronounced like the Arabic ج. Names of Arabic origin such as Mehmet or Ayşe can be written as pronounced or in their classical Arabic form, so we ask which you use.
Yes. The full family extract (tam vukuatlı nüfus kayıt örneği) lists parents, spouses and children with their status, which makes it useful for proving relationships. Ask the receiving authority which extract it wants before you legalise one.
UAE courts usually want proof that the judgment is final. Turkish courts add a finality annotation (kesinleşme şerhi) to the judgment once it becomes final. Legalise the annotated copy, and we translate the annotation with the judgment.
Yes. Legalise the UAE document first. Turkish authorities often ask for a translation by a sworn translator approved by a Turkish notary (yeminli tercüman), so check with the receiving office whether a translation made in the UAE is enough.
Same-day delivery is available for many single documents such as register extracts and diplomas. Court files and company documents take longer, and we confirm the time with the quote.
Requirements differ by free zone, but parent-company files commonly include the Trade Registry Gazette showing incorporation and current officers, an activity certificate, the signature circular and a board resolution. Ask the free zone for its list first, then legalise and translate in one batch.
