Legal Translation
Certified Arabic–English legal translation for documents that UAE courts, ministries, companies and embassies will accept. We keep names, dates, figures and legal terms consistent across every page, and where a document must follow an official template we match it — because a single mismatched name or a missing seal can be enough for a counter to refuse the whole file.
Use it for contracts, court filings, certificates, corporate records and any document a UAE authority, bank or employer asks to see in accurate Arabic or English, whether it was issued inside the UAE or abroad.
Explore translationCertificate Attestation
Support in carrying your certificates through the attestation chain — from the authorities in the country of issue to the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs — so a Dubai counter treats them as genuine. The chain differs by document and by the country that issued it, and the UAE is not a Hague Apostille member, so a foreign apostille alone is rarely enough. We help you see which stamps your particular certificate still needs.
Use it for university degrees, birth and marriage certificates, police-clearance letters and commercial documents you need recognised inside the UAE, or UAE documents you need recognised abroad.
Explore attestationRental Disputes Support
Practical support with Dubai tenancy matters: reviewing your contract and notices, gathering the tenancy agreement, Ejari registration and correspondence into one clear file, and translating what the Rental Disputes Centre needs to read. This is document and preparation support to help you act — not legal representation and not a guaranteed outcome.
Use it for rent-increase questions, eviction notices, deposit refunds and assembling an organised case file before you approach the RDC.
Explore rental supportPublication Notices
Support with notices that a case requires to be served or published — a court notice by publication when a party cannot be reached in the usual way, or a legal announcement placed in a newspaper. We help prepare the application and documents, coordinate the wording and translation, arrange the newspaper placement where it is required, and follow the steps through to the published proof, always according to what the competent court or authority asks for. MANJAZ is not a court: it does not decide whether a case qualifies for publication and does not issue the notice itself.
Use it for a notice by publication in a civil, commercial or real-estate case, or a required newspaper legal announcement, prepared and followed up according to the applicable procedure.
Explore publication noticesCorporate Services
Practical support across the life of a Dubai company — forming a new entity, amending a trade licence, updating company information, preparing corporate documents and resolutions, and following up business government transactions with the relevant authorities. We help you assemble, translate and attest what each step needs so your file arrives complete. MANJAZ is a corporate-services provider — not the Department of Economy and Tourism, and never the authority that issues the licence or approves an activity.
Use it for company formation, trade-licence amendments, company changes, corporate documents and resolutions, and government-transaction support.

Translation that stands up in front of any authority
When a document has to be accepted by a court, a ministry, a bank or an embassy, the translation is not a formality — it is the part that gets read most closely. Arabic is the language of official record across the UAE, so almost anything you submit to a government body or a court will need an accurate Arabic version, and anything you send abroad may need a precise English one. MANJAZ produces legal and certified translation between Arabic and English that keeps the meaning, the format and the legal weight of your original intact.
Legal language does not tolerate approximation. A single mistranslated clause in a contract, a wrong figure on a financial statement or an inconsistent name across certificates can stall an application for weeks. Legal Arabic in particular has settled terms of art that do not map word-for-word onto English, and choosing the wrong equivalent can quietly change what a clause means. Our translators work within the terminology that UAE courts, notaries and government departments expect, so the wording your reader sees matches the wording they are trained to accept.
Consistency is what turns a set of translated pages into a file that moves. We keep names, dates, reference numbers and technical terms identical across every document in the same matter, and we preserve the layout — stamps, seals, tables and signatures are described in place rather than dropped. A name that appears one way on a passport and another on a certificate is one of the most common reasons a file is questioned, and the way a name is transliterated between Arabic and English is exactly where that happens. That discipline is the difference between a file that clears review on the first pass and one that comes back for correction.
Certified translation carries a formal certification of accuracy so it can be submitted to the bodies that require it. Whether you are filing at a court, completing a visa or residency step, opening a corporate account or presenting records to a regulator, we advise on the form of certification your destination expects and prepare the document to match — before you submit, not after it is rejected. If a document also needs attestation, we tell you the order to do things in, because a document translated and certified out of sequence often has to be redone.
MANJAZ is a professional translation provider. Acceptance and any additional legalization always rest with the receiving authority, and we prepare your document to meet its published requirements.
Get your certificates recognized for use in the UAE
A certificate issued in one country is not automatically valid in another. Attestation is the chain of official confirmations that lets a UAE authority trust a foreign document — and lets a UAE document be trusted abroad. It is what stands between a degree, a marriage certificate or a commercial agreement and its acceptance for a job, a residency file, a marriage registration or a business transaction here. MANJAZ helps you map that chain correctly and move through it without wasted trips.
The process is not one fixed path. What a document needs depends on what it is and where it was issued: an educational degree from one country and a marriage certificate from another may pass through entirely different authorities before they reach the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. A document typically has to be confirmed in its country of origin, then endorsed by the bodies that country requires and by the relevant embassy or consulate, before the UAE stage even begins. Getting the order right at the start is what prevents a document arriving at a stage it was never prepared for.
It is worth being clear about apostilles. The UAE is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so a foreign apostille alone does not make a document usable here, and the UAE does not issue apostilles on its own documents. Instead, documents follow an attestation route through the issuing country and the relevant embassies, ending with UAE authentication. We explain exactly what this means for your specific paper so you are not caught out by advice written for other countries.
For most people the hardest part is not any single step but keeping the sequence, the translation and the copies aligned so nothing has to be redone. A document attested for the wrong purpose, or translated before a step that changes it, is wasted effort. We review your documents up front, tell you which are ready and which still need a prior step, arrange certified translation where it is required, and keep the file organized as it moves toward completion — so you spend the time once.
The exact steps vary by document type and country of issue, and requirements are set by the authorities involved. MANJAZ guides and prepares your file; it does not control or guarantee any authority decision, and the UAE is not a Hague apostille member.
Clarity and support when a Dubai tenancy goes wrong
Most landlord and tenant problems in Dubai come down to a few recurring questions: how much rent can rise, how much notice is required, and what a valid reason to end a tenancy actually is. The rules exist and are fairly clear once you know where to look — the trouble is usually that one side acted before checking them, or that a notice was worded or served in a way that does not hold. MANJAZ helps you understand where you stand and prepares your documents properly if the matter goes to the Rental Disputes Centre.
Rent increases in Dubai are governed by a published framework tied to the average market rate for a similar property, and any increase requires proper advance notice — commonly ninety days before the renewal date. Whether an increase is allowed at all, and by how much, depends on where your current rent sits relative to that market average, not on what either party feels is fair. Many disputes start simply because a notice was late, informal, or served the wrong way. Knowing what the rules require before you accept or contest an increase usually settles the question faster than an argument does.
Ending a tenancy has its own rules. A landlord who wants the property for personal use or intends to sell generally must give twelve months notice through the proper channel, and there is a separate ninety-day notice used to change the terms of a renewal. These periods and conditions matter — a notice served incorrectly often does not achieve what the sender intended, whichever side you are on.
If a case does reach the Rental Disputes Centre, it is decided on documents. Contracts, Ejari registration, notices, payment records and correspondence all carry weight, and they carry more of it when they are complete, consistent and — where needed — accurately translated into Arabic. A strong claim presented as a disorganized bundle of papers is weaker than it should be, and a weak position is rarely rescued by volume. This is where MANJAZ works: reviewing your papers, preparing and translating them, and helping you present a clear file that says what you need it to say.
On Dubai rental disputes MANJAZ reviews and prepares your documents, translates them, gives legal consultation, acts for you and represents you before the Rental Disputes Centre committees. It never guarantees an outcome.
Company formation
Setting up a company in the UAE means choosing the right structure and putting a set of official documents in order — in the language and form the authorities expect.
Formation involves memoranda and articles, shareholder and manager documents, approvals and, frequently, attestation and certified translation of documents brought from abroad — a foreign parent company's incorporation papers, a shareholder's passport, or a board resolution authorizing the setup. Getting the paperwork right at the start avoids re-doing it once the entity is live, which is far more disruptive than doing it once, in order, beforehand.
MANJAZ prepares and translates formation documents and coordinates the attestation your file needs, so you can register your company on a clean set of papers. Licensing and approvals rest with the relevant authorities.

Common questions about MANJAZ
MANJAZ is a Dubai-based corporate and translation services company specialising in five areas: legal and certified translation, certificate attestation, rental-dispute support, publication notices, and corporate services including company formation. A single thread runs through them: preparing, translating and organising documents in the form official bodies in the UAE accept, so your matter moves on first submission. If you are unsure which service you need, tell us your situation and we will point you to the right one, or combine more than one where your matter calls for it.
We produce certified legal translation intended for official use and prepare it to match the requirements of the body you are submitting to. Final acceptance always rests with the receiving authority, so we advise on the certification form your destination expects before you submit. See our translation services for what is included.
Attestation is a chain of official confirmations that makes a foreign document valid here, ending with authentication by the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The exact steps depend on the document and its country of issue. Importantly, the UAE is not part of the Hague Apostille system, so an apostille alone is not enough — see our attestation guide.
No. The UAE is not a member of the Hague Apostille Convention. Documents for use here follow an attestation route rather than an apostille, and UAE documents used abroad are attested rather than apostilled. Our apostille guide explains what applies to your case.
Rent increases in Dubai follow a published framework based on how far your current rent sits below the average market rate for a similar property, and any increase needs proper advance notice. Whether a proposed rise is allowed depends on those figures. Our rent-increase guide walks through it, and we can review your notice.
To end a tenancy for personal use or sale, a landlord generally must give twelve months notice through the proper legal channel; a separate ninety-day notice is used to change renewal terms. A notice served the wrong way often is not valid. Read our 12-month eviction notice guide, then let us review your documents.
Yes, on Dubai rental disputes. We give legal consultation, act for you and represent you before the Rental Disputes Centre committees — alongside the document review, preparation, certified Arabic translation and follow-up that make the file complete and clearly presented. Many matters are resolved on the strength of a well-organized file without going further. What we never do is guarantee an outcome. See the rental disputes section for what is included.
Yes. We prepare and translate formation documents — memoranda and articles, shareholder and manager papers — and coordinate any attestation your file needs so you can register on a clean set of documents. Choosing the structure and issuing the licence rest with the relevant authorities. Contact us to discuss your setup.
Yes. MANJAZ works natively in Arabic and English, and our core translation is between these two languages. Documents, guidance and correspondence are handled in whichever of the two suits you, which is what most official use in the UAE requires.
The quickest way is to send us your documents or describe your situation through our contact channel, including WhatsApp. We will tell you what your matter needs, what to prepare, and how it will proceed. Requirements vary by document and authority, so we confirm the details for your specific case rather than quote a fixed figure blind. A clear photo or scan of what you have is usually enough for us to give you a straight answer on the next step.
No. Approvals, timelines and fees are set by the courts, ministries and departments involved, not by MANJAZ. What we control is the quality and completeness of your documents, which is the part most likely to cause delay when it is wrong. We prepare your file to give it the best chance of a clean first review.
