Doing Business in Egypt: Why Professional Legal Translation Matters

Egypt is a thriving business destination for investors and entrepreneurs, but operating within its legal and bureaucratic system comes with formal documentation requirements—in Arabic.

Whether you’re launching a new company, entering a partnership, signing a lease, or registering with the government, the accuracy of your translated documents can have a direct legal impact.

At COT Translation Services, we offer certified legal translation services tailored for foreign investors, startups, consultants, and corporate teams working in or with Egypt.

Which Business Documents Require Professional Translation?

Certain documents carry legal weight and should be translated with precision and industry-specific knowledge. These include:

Company formation documents

Commercial licenses

Shareholder agreements

Articles of incorporation

Employment contracts

Lease agreements

Import/export permits

NDAs, MOUs, and LOIs

Tax registration and filings

Court-related papers or dispute notices Even minor language inaccuracies in these documents can lead to misinterpretation or delayed approvals.

Why Professional Legal Translation Is Crucial

Legal documents are not just about translating words—they’re about translating intent, rights, and obligations. A skilled legal translator ensures:

 Terminology matches local legal frameworks

 The structure and formatting follow legal standards

 Contextual meanings are preserved
