Indian Degree Certificate Translation

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.

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.

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. The UAE is not a Hague member, so apostille alone is not sufficient — after the MEA apostille you still need UAE Embassy attestation in India and UAE MOFA attestation in the UAE before any UAE authority will accept the document. A certified Arabic translation is also required.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
