What is a sworn Standard Arabic translation?
A sworn Standard Arabic translation is an official translation between Dutch and Standard Arabic made by a translator who has been sworn in by a Dutch court and listed in the Register of Sworn Interpreters and Translators (Rbtv). The translator binds a signed statement, an official stamp and a signature to a copy of your document, which is what lets Dutch authorities such as the IND, your municipality, the courts and universities treat it as the official version.

What is the difference between a certified and a sworn translation?
In the Netherlands the two terms describe the same thing. A certified translation here means a sworn translation: one produced by a court-sworn, Rbtv-registered translator who attaches a signed statement and an official stamp. In some other countries a certified translation can be a simple signed declaration without that legal standing, so when a Dutch authority asks for a certified translation it means the sworn version.
If you are sending a document abroad, check with the receiving authority whether they need the sworn translation legalised with an apostille as well.

Sworn Arabic translations — where and why they are used
Arabic is the official language of 22 countries in the Arab League and is spoken by around 422 million people. For applicants in the Netherlands the demand falls into three clusters: the Gulf states (the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Qatar) for commercial documents; Morocco, Egypt and Tunisia for migration and family matters; and Lebanon and Jordan for humanitarian procedures.
A fundamental distinction is the one between Modern Standard Arabic (Fusha) — the written language and the language of official documents — and the regional spoken varieties (Egyptian, Moroccan Darija, Levantine, Gulf Arabic). Sworn translations are always written in Fusha, because that is the legal register every Arab authority accepts. Names follow a transliteration standard; a wrongly transliterated name leads to rejection.
Only some Arab countries are part of the Hague Apostille Convention — Morocco (2016), Tunisia (2018), Bahrain and Oman. For Egypt, Lebanon, Jordan and Saudi Arabia, consular legalisation through the Dutch embassy is still required. We guide you through either route, but the consular path takes longer (two to four weeks) than an apostille (three to five working days), so plan for that.
Common use cases
- Moroccan municipality — marriage registration with a Dutch partner
- Saudi work permit (Iqama) — Dutch employment statement
- UAE free zone — Dutch BV registration in Dubai or Abu Dhabi
- Egyptian inheritance procedure — Dutch certificate of inheritance
- IND — translation of Arabic originals for humanitarian procedures
