Electronic powers of attorney on Najiz

Most Saudi powers of attorney (wakala) are now issued electronically through Najiz, the Ministry of Justice platform, or by a notary. Each has a number. Anyone with that number and the ID number of one of the parties can check it on Najiz, which shows whether it is valid or expired and gives a copy to view or print. That is the simplest way for a US bank, court or lawyer to confirm it.

We translate the whole document: the principal and agent with their ID or iqama numbers, each power granted, the term, and the verification details. Each power is translated separately and in order, because a US bank or court reads it clause by clause. A translation shows the document as of its date; whether it is still in force is for the receiving office to check on Najiz. See our Arabic page.

Using it in the US, and US documents for Saudi Arabia

A Saudi power of attorney usually enters a US file when a relative acts for you in Saudi Arabia, often over property; see the Saudi property deed page. A power limited to a single matter is translated with that limitation clearly stated. If a US court wants an apostille, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs issues them; USCIS does not require one. See apostilles and translation.

The other direction is common too: a power of attorney signed in the US for use in Saudi Arabia. The Arabic translation follows the Saudi terms for each power. The Ministry of Justice requires a foreign power of attorney to be certified before it is used, for example to conclude a marriage contract through an agent. We translate US documents into Arabic for that purpose as well.

What USCIS requires

Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.

State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.

How it works

Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.

A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.

Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.

Certified vs. standard translation

A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.

A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.
