Who needs legal translation?
Who needs legal translation?
Anyone who has to use a document in a country or language other than the one it was issued in needs legal translation. In the UAE, that includes Spanish-speaking individuals and families handling visas, Golden Visa applications, marriage or divorce papers, powers of attorney, police clearance certificates, and embassy or court submissions. It also includes companies and entrepreneurs setting up a business, signing commercial contracts, or registering in a free zone. Authorities in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and across the UAE usually require certified Arabic translation, while Spanish institutions need Spanish versions of UAE documents, so accuracy is not optional.
At Cervantes Legal Translation, we help Spanish speakers in Dubai, Abu Dhabi and the wider UAE with legal translation between Spanish, Arabic and English, including MOJ-certified translation where it is required. Each translation is handled by qualified professionals who understand legal terminology, so your documents are less likely to be delayed or rejected. If you are unsure whether your document needs certified translation, send it to us on WhatsApp and our team will guide you on the right next step.
