Birth Certificate Translation English to Arabic

Most people who need a birth certificate translation English to Arabic are dealing with an embassy here in London, not an office overseas. The Iraqi, Egyptian and Sudanese missions all want UK papers in Arabic before they will open a file.

We prepare a certified Arabic translation of a UK birth certificate for embassies and consulates in the UK, and for civil status offices, courts and ministries in Arabic-speaking countries. Tell us which one asked for it and we will follow what they wrote.

Your name spelt the way your passport spells it

Embassy letters followed word for word

An Arabic Birth Certificate Translation Built for Embassy Files

Names cause more trouble on Arabic files than anything else, because an English name can be written several ways in Arabic script. What follows shows how an Arabic translation of a UK birth certificate keeps your name consistent with what an embassy already holds.

So our English to Arabic birth certificate translation service starts by asking you for that spelling. We then use it throughout, so the Arabic page and your passport agree. An official comparing the two should never have to wonder whether they are looking at one person or two.

We also keep the layout of your original, translate the stamps and anything on the reverse, and set the Arabic out so it reads naturally right to left without the English details getting lost.

You can also get a trusted notarised translation if the embassy has asked for one in writing.

Birth Certificate Translation English to Arabic

A Fast Start on Your Arabic Birth Certificate Translation

Embassy appointments are not easy to rebook. Send us a photo and forward whatever the embassy sent you. We will come back the same working day with a price, a date, and a clear answer on whether a notary is needed.

A Translated UK Birth Certificate for Arabic-Speaking Offices

A UK birth certificate in Arabic is usually bound for an embassy in London, a ministry abroad or a court in the Middle East. Below are the usual reasons people need it and what each office wants to see when the translation arrives.

If an embassy has written to you with a list, forward it. Each one words things differently and we would rather follow theirs than guess.

Embassies and Consulates in London

The Iraqi, Egyptian, Sudanese and Gulf missions in London all ask for UK papers in Arabic. This is our most common Arabic job. Send us their letter and we will match the format they asked for.

Residency and Long-Stay Permits

Immigration offices in Arabic-speaking countries check identity before anything else. Your birth certificate in Arabic is usually the document that opens the file.

University and Ministry of Education Files

Public universities and education ministries ask for civil documents alongside your qualifications. One certified Arabic set normally covers both.

Marriage Registration Abroad

Marriage is recorded through civil status offices or religious courts, depending on the country. Both want your birth certificate in Arabic, and often a Certificate of No Impediment with it.

Work Permits and Employment Files

Labour ministries and employers ask for identity papers when a contract is being registered. We can translate your certificate and supporting documents together.

Family, Inheritance and Court Matters

Registering a child, an inheritance claim, or a family court file all rest on proving how people are related. A translated birth certificate is the usual proof.

A Simple Path to a Certified Arabic Translation

You can order without leaving home, and your original never goes in the post. Here we walk through what to upload, how your name spelling and any notary needs are checked, and how the finished Arabic translation is sent to you or the embassy.

Step-1

Take a clear scan or photo of your English birth certificate and upload it securely to our platform. We accept all formats and ensure your personal data stays protected.
Step-2

Review the document summary, confirm spelling of names, and approve the final price. You’ll receive full cost transparency before anything begins.
Step-3

Our team completes your Arabic translation, checks it for formatting and accuracy, and delivers it to your email—certified and ready to submit.

A Careful Arabic Translation, Checked Line by Line

An embassy clerk checks facts rather than style, and small details decide whether a page is accepted. Below you can read how name spelling, family names, seals and the notary and apostille order are managed in every certified Arabic translation we send out.

Your Name Matched to Your Passport

This is the single biggest cause of trouble on Arabic files. Send us the spelling on your passport and we use exactly that, so the two documents never contradict each other.

Father's and Grandfather's Names

Arabic naming carries the father's and often the grandfather's name, and UK certificates set this out differently. We lay it out the way an Arabic official expects to read it.

Stamps, Seals and the Reverse

Photograph both sides. UK certificates often carry registry notes on the back, and a missing line looks like a missing page to whoever is checking.

We Follow the Embassy's Wording

Every mission asks in its own way. Forward the letter or email you were sent and we work from that rather than from a general template.

Notary and Apostille in the Right Order

When an embassy wants a notarised or apostilled set, the order matters. We will tell you which comes first so you do not pay for the same work twice.

We Ask About Unclear Words

Faded ink or an unusual place name gets a question from us before we start, not a guess. One email now is cheaper than a rejected file later.

A Few Words From Our Arabic Translation Clients

These are the words of people who sent UK papers to the Iraqi, Egyptian and Gulf missions in London, registered a marriage overseas or filed with an education ministry. They describe what happened when the embassy or office opened the translated file.

Frequently Asked Questions

From £25 a page. What moves the figure is how much is written on the certificate and how soon you need it.

Translation, the signed certification page and UK postage all sit inside that figure. If the embassy has asked for a notary, that is a separate fee and we show it in the same quote so you see the full cost at once.

The one on your passport. Tell us and we use exactly that, all the way through.

This is the single most common cause of trouble on Arabic files. A name written in Arabic script genuinely has three or four correct English spellings, and an official comparing your translation with your passport has no way to know that two versions mean one person.

One line from you at the start prevents the whole problem.

Yes, and embassy work in the UK is most of what we do in Arabic.

We handle files for the Iraqi, Egyptian, Sudanese and Gulf missions in London. Forward the letter or email they sent you. Each embassy words its request differently and we would rather follow theirs than work from a general template.

Only if they have asked for it in writing. Some missions do, particularly when documents are sent by post rather than handed in.

Notarisation costs more and adds a day or two. Show us what the embassy sent and we will tell you whether it is needed — we would rather say no than sell you something you do not need.

Before. The apostille goes onto your original UK certificate, and then the certificate and the apostille page are translated together as one set.

Get that order wrong and the translation has to be done again. If an apostille is part of your file, say so at the start and we will set the order properly.

Arabic records normally carry the father's name, and often the grandfather's, as part of a full name. UK certificates set this out differently, with parents listed in separate fields.

We lay the Arabic page out the way an official there expects to read it, while keeping every detail from your UK certificate in place. If your family uses a particular form of the name, tell us.

Most Arabic jobs are finished inside 24 to 48 hours. Same-day is possible when an embassy appointment is close.

An older certificate with handwriting takes longer, and an apostille page adds a little because it is translated too.

Tell us your appointment date with the photo. Your date is checked first, and only then do we ask for payment.

Yes, all of it.

  • Official stamps and embossed seals
  • Signatures and the titles beside them
  • Registry notes written in the margins
  • Anything printed on the reverse
  • The apostille page, if one is attached

Photograph both sides when you send it. A line on your original with nothing matching it in the Arabic looks like a missing page to whoever is checking.

Either. Put the address on your order and that is where it lands.

You get the PDF by email as well, so you can check every page before the paper set leaves us. Delivery works to any UK address or abroad. Standard UK postage is inside your quote.
