Certified English translations of Arabic documents from Syria, Iraq, Sudan, Egypt, Jordan, the Gulf and North Africa, prepared for Irish use. We translate family register extracts for citizenship, medical degrees for the Medical Council, marriage contracts for the HSE and Tawjihi results for university. Native Arabic translators handle Hijri dates and Eastern Arabic numerals and spell names as your passport does. Each translation carries a signed Certificate of Accuracy, our stamp and a reference number, at €29.95 per page, most orders in 24 hours.
Census 2022 counted 23,234 people speaking Arabic at home, up from 16,072 in 2016, and 20,115 people gave an Arab ethnic background. Most live in the Dublin area: Dublin City had 3,398 Arabic speakers, and Fingal, South Dublin and Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown each had more than 2,000. Arabic-speaking clients range from medical graduates registering with the Medical Council to families building a new life in Ireland, and their documents vary enormously from one country to the next, so we match each translation to the issuing state’s format.

شهادة ميلاد
Formats differ by country: Syrian and Lebanese certificates come from the civil registry, while Egyptian computerised certificates carry the 14-digit national number. We translate every field, seal and signature.
إخراج قيد عائلي
Syrian and Lebanese families prove parentage and marital status with an ikhraj qaid. It is often used in Ireland as supporting evidence of family relationships, and we translate each family member listed.
عقد زواج
Arabic marriage contracts record the mahr, the witnesses, the guardian (wali) and any conditions. We translate every clause and court or registry stamp, with a translator’s note where a term has no English equivalent.
وثيقة طلاق
A divorce may be registered by a Sharia court, a civil court or a ma’dhun. To remarry in Ireland you need proof the divorce is final, so bring every document you hold and we translate them all.
شهادة الثانوية العامة
Called Tawjihi in Jordan and Palestine, Thanaweya Amma in Egypt and the Baccalaureate in Syria. We translate subject scores and totals exactly, because Irish universities assess applicants on those numbers.
بكالوريوس الطب والجراحة
Many medical degrees from Sudan, Egypt or Iraq are partly in English already. The Medical Council wants translations officially stamped by an official translator, so we translate the Arabic parts, seals and signatures.
صحيفة الحالة الجنائية
Names vary: فيش جنائي in Egypt, شهادة عدم محكومية in Jordan, وثيقة غير محكوم in Syria. Irish employers may ask for one from each country you lived in, and we translate whichever you have.
كشف درجات
University transcripts list courses, credit hours and grades, sometimes on a GPA scale Irish institutions do not use. We keep the original scale without conversion and leave recognition to QQI NARIC or the university.
No account required. No commitment. Exact price in seconds.
Send a photo, scan or PDF of your document through our secure portal. We count the words and show you the exact price in euro straight away.

Your certified translation arrives by email as a PDF, ready to submit. A hard copy by tracked post or an apostille can be added at checkout. 12-hour expedited service on request.
Naturalisation applicants submit a birth certificate and any marriage record, and ISD wants a translation by a professional translator with a copy of the original. We keep your name spelling identical to the passport and IRP card you submit.
Doctors, pharmacists and nurses from Arabic-speaking countries register with the Medical Council, PSI or NMBI. Each asks for stamped, signed translations with the translator’s contact details, which our certificate includes as standard.
For a marriage in Ireland, a birth certificate from outside the EU may need an apostille or legalisation. Some Arab states issue apostilles and others still legalise through the foreign ministry and an embassy; we translate the document with whichever stamp it has.
Tawjihi and Thanaweya Amma holders applying to Irish universities, and graduates starting a master’s, need certified translations of results and transcripts. The CAO’s rule is that an official translation is done by a professional translation service provider.
If you married abroad, the HSE asks for your original marriage certificate when you register your baby’s birth, translated by a certified translation service. We translate the عقد زواج in full, including the mahr and witness details.
When an Arabic divorce or custody ruling is used in Irish proceedings, the court needs a translation by a suitably qualified translator plus a translator’s affidavit. We provide the certified translation. Ask your solicitor how the affidavit should be handled.
€29.95 per page for Arabic, the same as every other language. Most certificates fit on a single page (300 source words). Digital delivery is free; a hard copy by tracked post can be added at checkout.
