German Translation

German-language documents come from three countries with distinct formats — Germany, Austria and Switzerland — and the difference matters when a UAE authority is checking a seal against what it expects. Engineering and technical qualifications also carry terminology that a general translator will approximate rather than render correctly.

Send Your Document

We translate between German and Arabic or English for submission anywhere in the UAE. Every translation is produced by a translator licensed by the UAE Ministry of Justice and carries the official MOJ stamp, which is what makes it acceptable to courts, ministries, embassies and banks.

German documents we translate

Birth, marriage and death certificates
Degree certificates, diplomas and Ausbildung records
Engineering and technical qualifications
Commercial contracts and company registration extracts
Powers of attorney and notarised declarations
Court judgments and official correspondence

If your document is not on this list, send it anyway. Most of what we handle between the German-speaking countries and the UAE falls outside a tidy category.

Where these translations are accepted

Our German translations are accepted by UAE courts, government departments, embassies, banks and GDRFA. Where a document needs attestation as well as translation — which is common for anything issued outside the UAE — we handle the chain rather than sending you to work it out. See certified translation and attestation for how that process runs.

Turnaround

Standard turnaround is 24–48 hours. Same-day and urgent delivery are available when you are working to a court date or a visa appointment — tell us the deadline when you send the document and we will say honestly whether it is achievable before you commit.

How we work

No machine translation, and no passing the file to an unknown subcontractor. German work is done by a translator who works in the language, and every document gets a second pair of eyes before it is stamped. That is the whole reason a certified translation is worth paying for.

Getting a quote

Send a photo of each page on WhatsApp and you will get a firm price rather than a range. Starting rates for our main language pairs are published on the pricing page; German is quoted per document, since page count alone rarely reflects the work.
