Frequently asked questions

Why don't you publish fixed prices?

The price depends on the document type, length, language pair, required certification and destination country. Instead of a price list that rarely fits, we give every client a free fixed quote.

Which payment methods do you accept?

Bank transfer and card payment. Payment details are included with your quote.

Which documents need certified translation in Bahrain?

Bahraini authorities generally require a certified Arabic or English translation of any official document that is not already in Arabic or English, and sometimes of English documents as well.

What is the difference between apostille and legalization?

An apostille is a single certificate valid between Hague Apostille Convention countries. Legalization is a chain of verifications ending at the destination country's embassy, used when an apostille is not accepted.
