Certified translation and document legalisation in the UAE

Italian translation services in the UAE

Italian work here is split between corporate files — chamber of commerce extracts, statutes, shareholder resolutions — and the maritime and trade documentation that moves through Fujairah and Jebel Ali.

The visura camerale is the document that appears most often, and it is dense: company form, share capital, registered office, directors, powers, and activity codes, all in a compressed format that loses its meaning if it is rewritten as prose. We keep the table structure so a UAE bank or free zone authority can find the field it is looking for. Italian company forms — S.r.l., S.p.A., S.a.s. — are translated with the original retained, for the same reason as the German ones.

Italian civil documents are frequently issued in estratto or integral form, and the two are not interchangeable: an extract omits the annotations that a UAE family or inheritance file often needs. Where the purpose requires the full version we say so before starting, rather than translating an extract that will be sent back.

Questions we are asked

Do I need an estratto or the full certificate?

It depends on the receiving authority. Family and inheritance files usually need the integral version with annotations, because an extract omits exactly the entries they are checking. Tell us the purpose and we will confirm before translating.

Is an Italian apostille accepted in the UAE?

No. Italy is a Hague party but the UAE is not, so the document needs UAE consular legalisation in Italy and then MOFAIC attestation here.

Do you handle shipping documents?

Yes — bills of lading, charter parties, survey reports and protests, including urgent work tied to a vessel schedule in Fujairah or Jebel Ali.
