About This Document

Indian degree certificates are issued in English by universities across India. They confirm the degree title, field of study, and date of conferral. For use in the UAE, they need to be translated into Arabic by an MOJ-licensed translator.

Since India joined the Hague Apostille Convention in 2023, degree certificates can be apostilled through the MEA (Ministry of External Affairs) e-Apostille portal. This streamlined process replaces the older Embassy attestation route.

The translated and apostilled degree is accepted by MOHRE for work permit processing, MOHESR for degree equivalency, and GDRFA for Golden Visa applications.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our translation services.

How much does Indian degree certificate translation cost in Dubai?
Standard translation of an Indian degree certificate costs AED 200 for MOJ-certified legal translation from English to Arabic. This covers 1-2 pages. Express same-day and urgent 1-hour delivery are available at additional cost. Your price may vary based on document length.
Do I need MOHESR equivalency for my Indian degree?
If using your degree for employment, most employers and MOHRE require degree certificate translation but not always MOHESR equivalency. For regulated professions (medicine, engineering, teaching), MOHESR equivalency is mandatory and requires a translated and attested degree.
Does an Indian degree certificate need apostille?
India is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Indian degrees can be apostilled by the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA) via the e-Apostille portal. After apostille, the document is recognized in the UAE without requiring embassy attestation. You still need a certified Arabic translation.
Can I use this translation for Golden Visa application?
Yes. The Golden Visa requires MOJ-certified translation of your degree certificate. Your degree must be from a recognized university and may also require MOHESR equivalency depending on the visa category.
Which Indian degrees are accepted for UAE employment?
The UAE recognizes degrees from universities approved by the University Grants Commission (UGC) or AICTE. Distance-learning degrees from IGNOU and other recognized institutions are also accepted. Unrecognized degrees may be rejected during DataFlow verification.
How long does the translation take?
Standard delivery is 1-2 business days. Express same-day delivery is available. If you need it within 1 hour during working hours (9 AM - 9 PM UAE time), urgent delivery is available. Send your document via WhatsApp and we confirm the timeline immediately.
What if my degree has a different name spelling than my passport?
Name discrepancies between your degree and passport are common with Indian documents. We check all name spellings against your passport and Emirates ID before starting translation. If there is a mismatch, we discuss the correct transliteration with you first.
Do you translate mark sheets and transcripts as well?
Yes. If you need your academic transcript translated alongside your degree certificate, we offer that as a separate product. Many clients order both together for MOHESR equivalency applications.
What documents do I need for MOHESR equivalency?
For MOHESR equivalency you typically need: (1) translated and attested degree certificate, (2) translated academic transcripts, (3) passport copy, (4) Emirates ID copy, and (5) completed MOHESR application. All translations must be MOJ-certified. Government fees are separate.
Can you translate degrees from any Indian university?
Yes. We translate degree certificates from all Indian universities — central, state, private, or deemed universities. This includes IITs, IIMs, and all UGC-recognized institutions.
