Interpreting in Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi Interpreting Services for the UAE Capital's Government and Energy Sectors

Abu Dhabi is the UAE's capital and the seat of the federal government, with a concentration of sovereign wealth funds, state energy entities, and government-linked enterprises that is unique in the region. ADNOC, ADIA, Mubadala, and ADQ collectively manage trillions in assets and engage in negotiations across Arabic, English, French, Mandarin, and other languages. The Abu Dhabi Global Market (ADGM) operates an independent English-language court system alongside the Arabic-language Abu Dhabi Judicial Department.

BeTranslated provides professional interpreting in Abu Dhabi for government meetings, ADNOC energy contract negotiations, ADGM court proceedings, and sovereign fund investment discussions. Our interpreter network covers Arabic, English, French, Mandarin, and Hindi as priority pairs, with additional language coverage available for the city's diverse professional community.

“Reliable, trustworthy and customer-centric This is the summation of Michael, Suzy and their team of translators. I have worked with them for over a year, and they have been my translation service for advertising in many European languages - from Swedish to German to Russian, and not always from English! Consider them a rare find.”
