Saudi Arabia is the largest economy in the Arab world and one of the UK's most important trading partners in the Middle East. With a large Saudi community in the UK — including thousands of students, professionals, and business owners — there is strong demand for certified Arabic translation of Saudi documents.
Saudi government documents follow specific formatting conventions set by the Ministry of Interior, Ministry of Education, and other agencies. Our translators are experienced with Saudi-specific terminology, stamps, and administrative language that differs from other Arabic-speaking countries.
Understanding Saudi Document Formats
Saudi Arabian documents have several distinctive features that require specialist translation knowledge:
- Hijri Calendar — All Saudi documents use the Islamic (Hijri) calendar. Accurate conversion to Gregorian dates is essential for UK authorities.
- Ministry Stamps & Seals — Saudi documents carry specific ministry stamps and authentication marks that must be accurately described in translation.
- QR Codes — Newer Saudi documents include QR codes for digital verification through the Absher or Najiz platforms.
- Eastern Arabic Numerals — Some Saudi documents use Eastern Arabic numerals (٠١٢٣٤٥٦٧٨٩) rather than Western numerals. We convert these accurately.
