Questions before ordering
If your document does not match one of these situations, send it anyway. Support replies in 15–30 minutes during support hours.
How much does an Arabic passport translation cost?+−
The certified translation is priced per physical page. A data page on its own is one page, and each stamp or endorsement page you add is another.
Do I need the whole passport translated?+−
Almost never. Most filings want the data page, and some add a visa or entry stamp as evidence of status or travel. Send what you have and we will tell you which pages to drop before you pay.
Will my Arabic passport translation be accepted by USCIS?+−
The delivery includes your source-document scan, a complete English translation, and a signed and stamped Certificate of Translation Accuracy. If a receiving authority rejects the translation for a translation-related reason, we revise it free. If it is still rejected, we refund the translation cost.
My passport shows four names. Which one is my last name?+−
The final element is normally the family name, but the ones before it are not middle names. They are your father’s and grandfather’s given names, so we carry the whole chain in printed order and label each element rather than dropping the middle of it.
My Saudi passport dates look wrong against a normal calendar.+−
They are hijri dates, and the lunar year runs about eleven days shorter than the Gregorian one. We print the date as it appears and set the Gregorian equivalent beside it, marked as a conversion so a reviewer can check the arithmetic.
My name is spelled differently on my other documents. Which spelling wins?+−
The one on your passport. محمد is written Mohamed, Mohammed, Muhammad, and Mohammad on different records, all defensible, so we copy the passport line exactly and flag where another document differs.
Is the national number on my Egyptian documents translated?+−
It is transcribed digit by digit and labelled as the national number, never converted or shortened. The fourteen digits encode a date and governorate of birth, so a reviewer compares them against your birth certificate.
My passport has French beside the Arabic. Do you translate both?+−
Yes, both sides. Moroccan, Algerian, and Tunisian passports are commonly bilingual, and where the Arabic and French spell a name differently we show both rather than choosing one on your behalf.
Do you translate the machine-readable lines?+−
Yes, both of them, in full. They repeat the name, number, nationality, and dates in a fixed format that a reviewer may compare against the printed fields.
My passport is expired. Can you still translate it?+−
Yes, and expired Arabic-language passports are common evidence of prior status or travel. The translation states the validity dates as printed rather than presenting the document as current.
How long does an Arabic passport translation take?+−
A data page is usually delivered within 24 hours after we receive a clear scan. Adding several stamp or endorsement pages extends that slightly, and we confirm the window before work begins.
Is there a word cap on a page?+−
No. We bill the physical page you upload, never a 250-word unit. A stamp-covered page stays one billed page.
Do you need my physical passport?+−
No. A clear scan or phone photo of the pages you need is enough, and the passport never leaves you. Photograph the page flat, in even light, with all four corners visible.
