China is one of Egypt's largest trading partners and investors, from the Suez Canal Economic Zone to the New Administrative Capital. COT Translation provides certified Chinese ⇄ Arabic and Chinese ⇄ English translation for Chinese companies operating in Egypt, Egyptian businesses trading with China, and students and professionals heading to China — by specialist human translators, since 1992.
Articles of association, board resolutions, powers of attorney and licences translated into Arabic for GAFI, the commercial registry, tax authority and banks.
Technical manuals, safety procedures, HR policies and employment contracts for projects in the Suez Canal Economic Zone and industrial zones.
Supplier contracts, invoices, packing lists, certificates of origin and product specifications for trade with China.

Thanaweya Amma, degrees, transcripts, medical and police certificates for Chinese universities, scholarships and work permits.
Degrees, experience certificates and civil documents for Egyptian work permits and residence.
Egypt is not part of the Apostille Convention, so documents moving between the two countries still go through consular legalization.
