OVERVIEW

Degree Certificate Translation in Dubai — What Is Required

In Dubai, any degree, diploma, or educational certificate issued in a language other than Arabic must be accompanied by a Ministry of Justice certified Arabic translation before UAE professional licensing authorities, visa departments, and regulatory bodies will accept it. This applies to all degree levels — Bachelor’s, Master’s, PhD, MBBS, Diploma, and all other educational qualifications — from every country.

Degree certificate translation is required for UAE employment visa processing, professional licensing with DHA (Dubai Health Authority), HAAD (Abu Dhabi), MOE (Ministry of Education) teacher licensing, KHDA school staff registration, DED business setup, and free zone company formation. In every case, the authority requires both the attested original degree certificate and its MOJ-certified Arabic translation — submitted together.

Taw-Theeq translates degree and educational certificates from every country and every language into Arabic — and from Arabic into English or any other language — by in-house MOJ-licensed translators. No outsourcing. No rejection. Standard 4–6 hours. Same-day available. If your degree also needs attestation first, see: Educational Certificate Attestation Dubai.

⚠️

4 Reasons Degree Certificate Translation Is Rejected in Dubai

❌ Not MOJ-certified — DHA, HAAD, MOE, KHDA, and all UAE professional licensing bodies only accept translations from Ministry of Justice licensed translators. Typing centre translations, online services, and university-provided translations are all rejected.
❌ Translation submitted without attestation — For professional licensing with DHA or MOE, the degree certificate must be attested (HRD + MEA + UAE Embassy + MOFA) before translation. Submitting an unattested translated degree causes immediate rejection at the licensing counter.
❌ Transcript translated instead of degree — Some applicants translate their academic transcript instead of the degree certificate itself. DHA, HAAD, and MOE require both the degree certificate and the transcript to be separately translated — not one in place of the other.
❌ Wrong language pair — UAE authorities require Arabic as the target language for all professional licence submissions. English-only translations are not accepted by DHA, HAAD, or MOE for UAE professional licensing applications.

📌

Degree Certificate Attestation Must Come Before Translation

For DHA, HAAD, MOE, KHDA, and most UAE professional licensing authorities, your degree certificate must be fully attested before the Arabic translation is done. The attestation chain for degree certificates is longer than for personal certificates — it includes HRD (Human Resource Development) verification in some countries, MEA or country MOFA attestation, UAE Embassy attestation, and finally MOFA attestation in Dubai — before the MOJ-certified translation step.

Taw-Theeq handles both in-house — educational certificate attestation first, then MOJ-certified Arabic translation — in the correct order, one provider. WhatsApp us your degree and the authority you are applying to and we map the complete process for you.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Frequently Asked Questions — Degree Certificate Translation Dubai

Yes. Dubai Health Authority (DHA) requires MOJ-certified Arabic translation of both your degree certificate and your academic transcript as part of the professional licence application. Both documents must be translated separately — translating one in place of the other is not accepted. The degree must also be attested through the full attestation chain before translation. Taw-Theeq handles DHA-specific translation requirements in-house.
Yes, for most UAE professional licensing authorities — including DHA, HAAD, MOE, and KHDA. The degree certificate must be attested through the complete chain (HRD verification if applicable, MEA or country MOFA, UAE Embassy, MOFA Dubai) before the MOJ-certified Arabic translation is done. Translation must come after attestation — not before. Taw-Theeq handles both in the correct order in-house.
For DHA, HAAD, and MOE professional licence applications — yes. Both the degree certificate and the academic transcript must be separately translated into Arabic by an MOJ-licensed translator. Translating only one of them causes rejection at the licensing counter. Taw-Theeq translates both documents in the same appointment and at the same per-page rate.
MOJ-certified degree certificate translation is quoted individually once we see the document. Academic transcripts are also quoted the same way. Urgent same-day service is quoted individually once we see the document. Multi-page degrees and transcripts are quoted in full upfront — no surprises.

All translations are done by in-house MOJ-licensed translators. We also translate Arabic-language degrees into English or any other language for use abroad.
DHA requires translation of medical or health-related degree certificates and transcripts — both separately — alongside the attested originals. MOE requires translation of teaching qualifications, education degrees, and transcripts for teacher licensing. Both require attestation before translation. The format and specific documents required differ slightly between authorities — Taw-Theeq confirms the exact requirements for your specific authority when you contact us.

Final Guidance — Degree Certificate Translation Dubai

Degree certificate translation in Dubai is not simply about converting text from one language to another — it is a legal requirement with specific authority-by-authority rules about which documents to translate, the order of attestation and translation, and the format the translation must take. The most common and costly mistake is translating before attestation, or translating the degree without the transcript when both are required.

Taw-Theeq provides MOJ-certified degree certificate translation for DHA, HAAD, MOE, KHDA, DED, and all UAE authorities — for every degree type, from every country, in every language. We also handle educational certificate attestation in-house. Standard 4–6 hours. Same-day available. Free quote on WhatsApp in 1 hour.
