Not Sure What Your Document Needs?
We check the document type, receiving authority, and required steps - then tell you exactly what comes next, before any work begins.
Before We Quote
What We Check on Your Document
Most rejections happen because someone paid for the wrong step. We check the route first - for free - so you don't waste time or money.
Document Type
Birth certificate, contract, court judgment, POA, degree - the type drives the certification format and attestation path.
Issuing Country
UAE-issued vs foreign-issued documents follow different attestation chains. We identify which applies.
Receiving Authority
Court, MOFA, embassy, university, employer, bank - each has its own acceptance rules and format requirements.
Existing Stamps
What has already been attested, notarized, or apostilled? We check what is already done so you do not repeat steps.
Target Language
Arabic ↔ English under MOJ #701. Other pairs via contracted MOJ translators. No MOJ option? Arkan company certification.
Deadline
Hearing date, visa cut-off, submission window - your deadline drives whether standard or express workflow applies.

Sound Familiar?
These are the situations people send us every day. If any of these match yours, the route check is for you.
Someone told me I need legal translation.
But you are not sure if that means MOJ-certified, notarized, or just translated. We check and confirm the exact certification tier your receiving authority requires.
I need attestation but I am not sure of the steps.
MOFA, embassy, notary - the order matters and varies by document. We map the correct sequence and tell you which steps we handle vs which require you personally.
I have a deadline and do not know where to start.
Visa cut-off, court hearing, university submission - send us the deadline and we prioritize accordingly. We tell you what is realistically achievable in the time available.
My document was rejected - what now?
Send the rejected document and the rejection reason. We identify what went wrong - wrong tier, missing step, incorrect format - and tell you how to fix it without starting over.
I need both translation and attestation but do not know the order.
Translation usually comes before attestation, but not always. We confirm the correct sequence for your specific document and receiving authority.
I genuinely have no idea what my document needs.
That is exactly what this page is for. Send the document. We tell you what it appears to need. No commitment, no payment until you decide to proceed.
