MOJ-Certified Legal Translation & Judicial Services
Precision-engineered legal translations for the UAE’s most demanding law firms and government entities. Fully accredited by the Ministry of Justice, we ensure your contracts, litigations, and corporate filings are legally binding and technically flawless.
Why Legal Translation is Mission Critical
In law, words create rights, obligations, and consequences. A single mistranslated clause can invalidate contracts, derail litigation, or trigger regulatory penalties. Studies show that 43% of international legal disputes involve translation issues, with average resolution costs exceeding $175,000 per case.
Professional legal translation isn’t just recommended; it’s essential for legal certainty.

Uphold Justice Across Languages
Eliminate jurisdictional risk with MOJ-certified legal translations that uphold the technical rigors of the UAE judicial system. Tarjim provides the linguistic precision required for high-stakes litigation, cross-border M&A, and regulatory filings. We don’t just translate words; we ensure your documents are judicially sound and legally binding in every jurisdiction from the DIFC to the Dubai Courts.
FAQ'S
1. Are Tarjim’s translations officially certified for the UAE Ministry of Justice (MOJ)?
Yes. We provide sworn legal translations that carry the official stamp and signature of translators accredited by the Ministry of Justice. Our work is legally binding and accepted by the Dubai Courts, the Notary Public, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), and all UAE government and free zone authorities.
2. Do you have specialized expertise in DIFC and ADGM Court requirements?
Absolutely. We recognize the distinction between the UAE’s Civil Law system and the Common Law systems of the DIFC and ADGM. We provide specialized legal linguists who are fluent in the specific terminology required for these international financial jurisdictions, ensuring your filings meet their unique procedural standards.
3. How do you handle high-stakes litigation and confidential M&A data?
We treat every document as a privileged asset. Our legal translation teams operate under strict enterprise-grade NDAs within an ISO-certified environment. We offer secure, encrypted file transfers and restricted-access protocols to ensure that sensitive discovery materials and corporate secrets are never compromised.
4. Can you provide sworn interpreters for court hearings or arbitrations?
Yes. We provide MOJ-sworn interpreters authorized to provide official interpretation for judicial hearings, witness depositions, and international arbitration sessions. Whether at the Dubai Courts or a private mediation, we ensure every statement is captured with total legal fidelity.
5. What is the turnaround time for urgent contracts or Powers of Attorney (POA)?
We specialize in expedited legal delivery. Because we maintain an in-house team of sworn legal experts, we can often provide same-day or 24-hour certified translations for critical documents like POAs, MOAs, and urgent court filings without sacrificing technical precision.
