A salary certificate is a short letter in which an employer confirms that a person works for it, in what position, since when, and for how much. In the UAE it is asked for constantly: for a personal loan or credit card, a tenancy, a family visa application or a school place. Many employers issue it in English only, and the bank or office receiving it sometimes wants it in Arabic.

The experience certificate travels the other way. Someone who worked for a government department or a local company in the region often holds an Arabic certificate listing the years of service and the positions held, and the new employer, the professional licensing body or the immigration office abroad needs it in English. These letters can use formal Arabic job titles that have no single English equivalent, so we translate the title by its meaning and keep the duties in the order the employer listed them.

The salary table is where mistakes cost the most. Basic salary, housing, transport and other allowances are translated line by line, the currency and every figure are carried over exactly, and the total is left as the employer stated it, even if the lines do not add up. A reader comparing the translation with the original should find the same numbers in the same places.

What these certificates look like

  • A letterhead with the company name, an outgoing reference number and a date, addressed to a named bank or "To whom it may concern".
  • The employee's name, nationality, passport or Emirates ID number, job title and date of joining, sometimes with the employee number used by HR.
  • A salary table showing basic salary, housing, transport and other allowances, with the gross monthly total written in figures and often in words.
  • The HR manager's name, title and signature over the company stamp, and a footer with the trade licence or establishment card number; Arabic certificates from public employers may show both Hijri and Gregorian dates.

What to send

  • The signed and stamped certificate as a PDF or a clear photo, with the stamp and signature readable.
  • Your full name as it appears in your passport, so the translation matches your other documents.
  • Any payslips, salary transfer letter or offer letter that must go with it, if the receiving body asked for them.
  • Who will receive the translation, for example a bank, an embassy, a new employer or a licensing body.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about our translation services.

How much does it cost to translate a salary or employment certificate?

We do not publish a fixed price here, because a salary certificate is often a single page while an experience certificate can list ten years of positions and duties, and some clients send a salary certificate, a salary transfer letter and payslips together. We would rather confirm an honest figure for your own file. Send the certificate on WhatsApp. A real person on our team replies on WhatsApp within 1 to 3 minutes and then confirms the exact price for your file before you pay.

My employer issues the certificate only in English. Can you put it into Arabic?

Yes. Many companies in the UAE, especially international and free zone employers, issue salary certificates in English only, and some banks or offices ask for an Arabic version. We translate the certificate into Arabic, keeping the salary table, the dates and the signatory exactly as your employer wrote them. Ask the receiving bank or office first whether it wants a translation or a certificate issued in Arabic by the employer.

Can you change the salary, the job title or the dates in the translation?

No. The translation states exactly what the certificate says: every figure, allowance, title and date is carried over as written. If something on the certificate is wrong, the employer has to issue a corrected certificate, and we then translate the new one.

Do you translate payslips and salary transfer letters too?

Yes. Payslips, a salary transfer letter addressed to a bank, the offer letter or the employment contract can go in the same order, each translated as its own document. Sending them together keeps your name, your employer's name and the salary figures written the same way in every translation.

Will the bank, embassy or employer accept the translation?

The bank, embassy, employer or licensing body receiving the translation decides whether to accept it, and some also check the certificate directly with your employer. We translate the certificate exactly as issued. We do not verify your employment or salary, and we do not contact your employer.
