The real estate registry
The Real Estate Registry Law No. 39 of 1991 set up a Real Estate Registry Authority (مصلحة السجل العقاري) in which each property unit has its own page, giving its number, location, boundaries, area and buildings, with a plan. The deed (السند) is the document matching the register after registration; a certificate (شهادة) is a copy of the register's data. Under the law, a sale, exchange, division or mortgage has no effect even between the parties until it is recorded.
Older records come from base registers kept by the Ministry of Awqaf, the Sharia courts and the state lands authority, so a family's documents may include court or endowment papers as well as a registry deed. We translate each with its plot number, boundaries as described (often by the neighbouring owners), any plan labels and every stamp. See our Arabic page.
Contracts written by an amin
Under the Documentation Law, a licensed amin may write real-estate transactions and must file copies with the court's documentation section every two months. A Yemeni land document may therefore be a handwritten contract by an amin rather than a printed registry form. We translate them in full, including the witnesses, the amin's certification and any later notes in the margin, and mark any word we cannot read rather than guess.
Inherited land must be recorded with an inventory of the estate showing each heir's share, so an estate case may involve that inventory too. Names of owners, neighbours and witnesses are translated as the chains printed. Areas are kept in the units used, including local units, with no conversion unless you ask for a note. See the Yemeni death certificate and Yemeni lease agreement pages.
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.
