What Is Certified Translation in Saudi Arabia?
Certified translation (ترجمة معتمدة) is a professional translation prepared and certified for official use. Depending on the purpose of the document and the receiving authority, the translation may need to include the translator's certification, stamp, signature, or other required details.
Certified translation is commonly required when submitting foreign or Saudi documents to government authorities, embassies, universities, courts, immigration authorities, employers, and other organizations.
At JCT, we understand that official documents require more than a word-for-word translation. Names, dates, document numbers, stamps, signatures, legal terminology, and formatting must be handled carefully to minimize errors and avoid unnecessary delays.
When Do You Need Certified Translation in Saudi Arabia?
Certified translation may be required for many personal, legal, educational, business, and immigration-related purposes.
Common examples include:
Birth certificates
Marriage certificates
Divorce certificates
Death certificates
Police clearance certificates
Passports and identity documents

University transcripts
Employment certificates
Experience certificates
Medical reports

Certified Translation for Government Documents in Saudi Arabia
Official documents submitted in Saudi Arabia may be subject to specific requirements depending on the receiving authority.
Before translating a document, it is important to identify:
Who will receive the document?
What language is required?
Does the authority require certification or a specific format?
Does the original document require attestation or authentication?
Is the translated document intended for use inside or outside Saudi Arabia?
These requirements can differ from one application to another.
JCT can help customers understand the translation requirements and prepare their documents accordingly.
Certified Translation for Embassies in Saudi Arabia
Embassies and consulates may require translated documents for visa applications, family-related applications, immigration procedures, education, employment, marriage, and other official matters.
The required language and certification requirements vary by embassy and application.
If you are submitting a document to an embassy, provide JCT with the name of the embassy and the purpose of the document. This allows us to advise you about the appropriate translation service before you place your order.
Certified Translation and Document Attestation
Translation and document attestation are not always the same process.
A document may require:
Original Document → Attestation/Authentication → Certified Translation → Submission
or another sequence depending on the receiving authority and destination country.
For documents intended for use outside Saudi Arabia, additional authentication, legalization, embassy procedures, or other formalities may sometimes be required.
JCT can provide translation services and guide customers on the translation-related requirements. However, the final requirements should always be confirmed with the authority receiving the document.
