In Co. Carlow, 219 people spoke Arabic at home at Census 2022, a county figure that includes Carlow town.
Carlow's Arabic-speaking community is small but diverse, and each country's documents look different, from Egyptian birth certificates to Syrian family registers. None of these countries is in the EU, so some Irish uses need an apostille or embassy legalisation on the original. Typical Carlow requests are degrees for SETU or QQI, medical qualifications for St Luke's, and civil records for Child Benefit and citizenship.

Some Arabic-speaking families in Carlow came through international protection and cannot easily request new documents from home. Send us clear scans of whatever you have, even if damaged, and we will translate what is legible and mark anything that is not.
