Why Foreigners Need Legal Translation in Dubai

Dubai, a global hub for business, real estate, tourism, and investment, welcomes millions of expatriates and visitors from around the world. With this cultural and linguistic diversity comes the increasing need for legal translation services—especially for foreigners navigating legal, governmental, or commercial processes.

Whether you're setting up a business, applying for residency, signing real estate contracts, or dealing with legal disputes, accurate and certified legal translation is essential to ensure your documents are legally valid and clearly understood by UAE authorities.

That’s where Amazon Attestation and Translation Services plays a vital role—providing professional, MOJ-approved translation services across all Emirates.

Common Scenarios Requiring Translation

Foreigners in Dubai may need legal translation for:

• Visa and immigration applications
