Sworn Translation in Poland

If you need to use UAE-issued documents in Poland or Polish documents in the UAE, you need a sworn translation that meets the receiving authority’s standards. LegalTranslator provides sworn translations in Poland accepted by Polish authorities and institutions.

Translating a UAE Document for Poland? Read This First

If your document is going from the UAE to Poland, it must be legalized before it is translated. It must also carry two stamps. One is from the UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA), and the other is the Polish Embassy’s own legalization stamp.

Here’s how the process works;

  • UAE Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MOFA) authenticates the original document.
  • The Polish Embassy in Abu Dhabi legalizes it.
  • Then a sworn translator translates it into Polish for use in Poland.

If you translate your document before receiving the Polish Embassy stamp, the receiving office in Poland will still ask you to complete legalization. This will require you to translate the document again once it’s properly stamped.

Sworn Translation Requirements in Poland

Poland acknowledges ‘professional’ or ‘sworn’ translations, depending on the purpose of the translation. Professional translations are usually required for business, legal, medical, and other industry-specific documents. Sworn translations, on the other hand, are used for official or legal purposes.

Sworn translations are completed by professionals who have undertaken the rigorous state examination and have been authorized by the Polish Ministry of Justice. They are required for official documents, such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, academic records, and legal documents. 

According to Polish law, a sworn translator is a recognized official; therefore, the process of obtaining their qualification is regulated in the Act of November 25, 2004, on the profession of a sworn translator – Ustawa z dnia 25 listopada 2004 r. o zawodzie tłumacza przysięgłego (art. 2 pkt 1).

To be considered a sworn translator in Poland, you must meet the following requirements:

  • Have good knowledge of the Polish language.
  • Have the full legal capacity to become a sworn translator.
  • Have no criminal record.
  • Have a master’s degree in philology or postgraduate studies in translation in a selected language.
  • Be a Polish citizen or have citizenship in one of the EU or EFTA countries.

Once you meet all these conditions, you must pass the state public exam administered by the Ministry of Justice to become a sworn translator and operate legally in Poland.

Frequently Asked Questions

Translate your documents after legalization. For UAE documents to be used in Poland, translate them after they carry both the UAE MOFA stamp and the Polish Embassy’s legalization stamp.
Some Polish certificates can be issued as EU multilingual standard forms. These are accepted without translation between EU member states. That exemption doesn’t extend to the UAE, so a legal translation is still required for documents used there.
CI Tower, Office 1502, Al Bateen Street, Khalidiya, Abu Dhabi. Appointments for legal issues, including document legalization, are booked online through the e-Konsulat system.
No. The UAE isn’t a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so a Polish apostille isn’t accepted there. Polish documents need full legalization through Poland’s MSZ, the UAE Embassy in Warsaw, and UAE MOFA instead.
Only a tłumacz przysięgły on the Polish Ministry of Justice’s list, a sworn translator authorized in another EU/EEA state, or a consul in specific procedures. General certified translations from translators outside this list aren’t accepted for official use in Poland.
It depends on the document and where you are in the chain. Single-page legalization at the Polish Embassy in Abu Dhabi is usually done the same day. Multi-page commercial documents take longer and are assessed individually. Translations from LegalTranslator are delivered in 12-48 hours.
