Certified Arabic Translation
Professional Arabic translation of documents by certified translators, with full attestation of both original and translated versions for Jordanian authority acceptance.
GreenAttest provides professional certified Arabic translation paired with full attestation processing for documents intended for use in Jordan. Our qualified legal translators produce accurate Arabic translations that meet Jordanian government standards, followed by complete attestation through all required stages. The combined service takes 10-15 business days.
Arabic is the official language of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, and government ministries, courts, universities, and employers require all foreign-language documents to be accompanied by certified Arabic translations. The Jordanian Ministry of Justice, Ministry of Higher Education, and Ministry of Labour all mandate that translations be performed by qualified legal translators and carry proper certification before they will be accepted alongside the original documents.
The quality of Arabic translation matters significantly in Jordan because legal and administrative terminology must be precise. A poorly translated employment contract, educational certificate, or court document can change the meaning of critical terms, leading to misunderstandings with Jordanian authorities or, in legal contexts, adverse outcomes. Machine translations and informal translations by bilingual friends or colleagues are not accepted and will result in your application being returned without processing.
GreenAttest employs certified legal translators who specialize in official document translation for Jordanian requirements. Our translators understand the specific Arabic terminology used in Jordanian legal, educational, and administrative contexts, ensuring your documents read naturally to Jordanian officials. Once the translation is complete, our attestation team processes both the original and the certified translation through the full chain, from notarization through Jordanian Embassy stamping, delivering a complete attested set ready for use in Jordan.
