Certified Arabic Translation Services for USCIS & Immigration

Native Arabic-Speaking Translators. 100% USCIS Acceptance Guaranteed.

Foreign language documents submitted to USCIS, a U.S. consulate, or an immigration attorney must include a complete English translation with a signed certification of accuracy. USCIS Translations provides certified Arabic to English translation built for exactly this purpose — backed by a 100% USCIS acceptance guarantee and 24-hour turnaround on most documents.

We work with applicants, petitioners, and the immigration attorneys who represent them, so we know which document types come up again and again — birth certificates, marriage and divorce certificates, national ID cards, and police clearance letters — and where a rushed or inexperienced translation tends to create problems.

Certified vs. Notarized Arabic Translation

USCIS does not require notarization — it requires a certification statement from the translator or translation company attesting to their competence in both languages and the accuracy of the translation. That statement is included by default on every order.

✓ Certified Translation

A signed statement from the translator attesting to accuracy and competence in both languages. Required by USCIS per 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). Included with every order.

+ Notarized Translation

Adds a notary public's seal verifying the translator's identity and signature. Not required by USCIS. Some courts, universities, or consulates ask for it — available as an add-on (+$9).

Turnaround Time & Pricing

Standard certified Arabic translations are typically delivered within 24 hours of a correctly submitted document. Rush delivery is available for same-day turnaround on most single-page civil documents (birth, marriage, and similar certificates).

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a certified Arabic translation?

A certified Arabic translation is a complete, accurate rendering of your document into English, accompanied by a signed statement from the translator or translation company attesting to their competency and the accuracy of the work — this signed statement is what makes it “certified.”

Yes. USCIS requires that any document in a foreign language be submitted with a full English translation and the translator’s certification of accuracy, per 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). Every order we prepare for USCIS use meets this standard.

No. Certification is a signed statement from the translator about accuracy and competence; notarization adds a notary public’s seal verifying the translator’s identity and signature. USCIS asks only for certification, not notarization.

For USCIS filings, certified is enough — notarization is not required. Some courts, universities, or foreign consulates do ask for notarization in addition to certification, so check your specific instructions before you order.

Most certified Arabic translations are delivered within 24 hours of your document being submitted correctly and completely.

Yes, same-day delivery is available for most single-page civil documents like birth and marriage certificates — select rush service when you place your order.

Pricing depends on document length and complexity and is confirmed with a quote before you pay, so you know the exact cost before your filing deadline.

We translate Arabic civil records (birth, marriage, divorce, death certificates, national ID cards), academic documents (diplomas, transcripts, degree certificates), legal documents (contracts, powers of attorney, court records), and immigration-specific paperwork.

Yes. Official Arabic documents — birth certificates, court records, academic transcripts — are almost always issued in Modern Standard Arabic, which is what our translations are built from as the baseline.
