Arabic-speaking residents of Co. Mayo come from Syria, Iraq, Sudan, Egypt, Libya and other countries, and include doctors, students and families who settled in Castlebar, Ballina and beyond. When a Mayo registrar, school or registration body needs an Arabic certificate or degree in English, we translate it into certified English for €29.95 per page, handling right-to-left text and seals with care.
Census 2022 recorded 584 Arabic speakers at home in Co. Mayo, a county-wide figure.
Arabic is Mayo's sixth most common foreign home language, and the community includes medical professionals as well as families building new lives in the west. Arabic records reach Mayo from a dozen countries, each with its own format, from a Syrian family register extract to a Sudanese university transcript, and names can be spelled in several ways. We agree one English spelling per person at the start and apply it across the order.

Doctors from Sudan, Egypt or Iraq joining Mayo University Hospital register with the Medical Council. We translate the degree, transcripts and internship certificate, with our stamp, name and address on the translation.
Arabic-speaking students applying to ATU in Castlebar translate their secondary school certificate and any university transcripts. We keep grades, percentages and the issuing school's details exactly as issued.
Maintenance or custody cases on The Mall may rely on an Arabic marriage contract or divorce certificate. We translate it with every seal. Your solicitor can explain whether the Castlebar sitting needs a translator's affidavit too.
Parents registering a birth may be asked for a marriage contract. We translate the عقد زواج and any attached authentication so the registrar can record the parents' details.
إخراج قيد عائلي
Syrians marrying in Castlebar or Westport may use the family register extract to show marital status. It lists every family member recorded in the civil register, and the registrar may want it legalised or apostilled in the country that issued it.
صحيفة الحالة الجنائية
Care homes and childcare services in Mayo may ask new staff from Egypt, Sudan or Syria for a police certificate from home beyond Garda vetting. The certificate states whether any record exists, and we translate the official stamps.
رخصة قيادة
Rural Mayo relies on driving, and newcomers from Arab countries may be asked by a rental desk or insurer for the licence in English. We translate the categories and dates and match the romanised name to the passport.
Arabic names may be romanised differently on a passport, an IRP card and a Mayo employer's records. Send us a photo of your passport page with your order and we use that spelling everywhere. If a Syrian or Sudanese document needs legalisation for a Castlebar registrar, that happens in the issuing country; we then translate the stamps too.
