Romanian to English Translation

Romanian Community in the UAE

The Romanian community in the UAE has grown steadily over recent years. Romanian professionals work across healthcare, engineering, construction, hospitality, and financial services sectors throughout the emirates.

Romanian nationals frequently need certified translation of their personal and professional documents for UAE visa applications, residency renewals, employment processing, and credential verification.

Romania is an EU member state. Romanian documents benefit from the EU apostille framework, which simplifies the certification chain for UAE submission in most cases.

Romanian Diacritical Characters

Romanian uses five diacritical characters that are distinct from other Latin-script languages: ă, â, î, ș, and ț. Government documents issued in Romania use these characters consistently.

Many translation services fail to distinguish Romanian diacriticals from visually similar characters in other languages. This creates errors in names, place names, and official titles that can trigger rejection by UAE authorities.

Our Romanian translators are native speakers who read and write the full Romanian character set accurately. Names on translated documents match the source document exactly to prevent discrepancies.

Romanian Trade Registry Documents for UAE Business

Romanian entrepreneurs and investors setting up companies in UAE free zones require translation of their ONRC (National Trade Register Office) extracts and articles of association.

The ONRC extract (extras ONRC) confirms a company's legal status, registered capital, and shareholder structure. Free zones including DMCC, DIFC, and JAFZA require this document in English with MOJ certification.

Board resolutions authorizing UAE business activities, financial statements, and shareholder agreements from Romanian companies are all translated for corporate setup and regulatory filing purposes.

Romanian Employment and Visa Documents

Romanian workers transitioning from EU employment to UAE jobs often need their previous employment contracts (contract de muncă) and reference letters translated. MOHRE requires certified translation for work permit processing.

Termination documents, salary certificates, and social security contribution records are commonly requested for UAE employment visa processing. We translate all standard Romanian HR documents with MOJ certification.

Romanian citizens working in healthcare, engineering, or education need their professional licenses and degree certificates translated for UAE regulatory authority submissions and degree equivalency applications.

Romanian Educational Diplomas for MOHESR

Romanian degrees — including the bacalaureat (secondary education diploma) and university licentă (bachelor's degree) — are required for UAE degree equivalency through MOHESR.

Romanian university transcripts list course names, credit hours, and grades in Romanian. We translate these into English following the format that MOHESR requires for academic assessment submissions.

Postgraduate Romanian degrees, including master's (master) and doctorate (doctorat) qualifications, are also translated for professional licensing, academic employment, and Golden Visa applications in the UAE.

Romanian Legal Documents for UAE Courts

Romanian court judgments (hotărâre judecătorească) are sometimes needed as evidence in UAE legal proceedings. These require precise translation of legal terminology from Romanian into Arabic.

Criminal record certificates (cazier judiciar) from Romanian police are required for UAE long-term residency and professional licensing applications. We translate them with MOJ certification accepted by all UAE authorities.

Divorce decrees, inheritance documents, and property title deeds from Romania are also handled by our translators. These documents frequently involve complex legal phrasing that requires experienced legal translation expertise.

Romanian Apostille Process for UAE Submissions

As an EU member state, Romania operates under the Hague Apostille Convention. Romanian documents can be apostilled through the designated Romanian authority before submission to UAE government bodies.

The apostille is placed on the original Romanian document. The translated version then carries MOJ certification for the UAE submission. Both elements together form the complete documentation chain.

We advise clients on which documents need apostille and which can be submitted with MOJ certification alone. The requirement varies depending on the receiving UAE authority and the type of proceeding.
