Arabic-speaking residents of Kerry include doctors at University Hospital Kerry, students at MTU and families granted international protection who have settled in Tralee and nearby towns. We translate the شهادة ميلاد, عقد زواج, family register extracts, degree certificates and court documents into certified English at €29.95 per page, with names spelt to match each passport. Short orders are usually emailed within 24 hours.
Census 2022 recorded 487 people speaking Arabic at home in Co. Kerry, the same number as spoke Croatian.
Arabic speakers in Kerry come from Syria, Iraq, Sudan, Egypt, Libya and North Africa, and their documents vary as much as their countries do. Handwritten entries, several stamps and ministry attestations are common. Since none of these countries is in the EU, a full translation is needed, and some Irish uses also want an apostille or legalisation from the issuing country.
See our full Arabic translation service or every language we translate for Tralee.
Arabic-speaking doctors joining UHK send the Medical Council their medical degree, internship certificate and good-standing letters. We translate each Arabic page, with its seals and attestations described.
Families who came to Kerry through international protection and now apply for naturalisation provide what civil documents they have. We translate each one with consistent transliteration of every name.
Students from Arab countries enrolling at MTU's Tralee campus may need a شهادة الثانوية العامة and transcript in English. We keep grades, percentages and school stamps exactly as issued.
Parents whose baby is born at University Hospital Kerry may be asked for their عقد زواج when registering the birth. We translate the marriage contract so the Civil Registration Service can proceed.
بكالوريوس الطب والجراحة
Doctors from Sudan, Egypt or Iraq seeking posts at University Hospital Kerry need Medical Council registration before starting. The MBBCh degree certificate often names the faculty and graduation session only in Arabic, and we translate it with every seal and signature noted.
عقد زواج
Tralee residents bringing a spouse from Syria or Egypt include a translated marriage contract in the visa file. Certified and signed within the EEA, the visa translation needs no apostille; add the hard copy ISD requires at checkout.
شهادة الثانوية العامة
Young people from Arabic-speaking countries applying to MTU's Tralee campus submit their secondary certificate with results. We translate the subject list, the total score and the percentage, which varies by country, exactly as the ministry printed them.
Many Arabic-speaking countries are outside the Apostille Convention, so a Tralee visa or civil registration file may need the original document legalised through that country's foreign ministry and the relevant embassy. Check the requirement with ISD or the registrar first, arrange it in the issuing country, and then send us the document with every stamp visible.
€29.95 per page (300 source words) for certified Arabic translation, with free delivery by email. Add a hard copy by tracked post (€14.95) or an apostille for use abroad (from €149.95) at checkout. See all services.
