Arabic Interpreting in Tbilisi and Batumi, and Arabic Localization for Gulf and Arab Markets

Interpreting for Arab students: universities, dormitories, clinics

Arab students are among the largest international groups at Georgian medical, dental, pharmacy and nursing faculties, and while they manage in English in the classroom, the residence permit submission at the Public Service Development Agency, the biometrics appointment, the bank account opening, the lease signing, the clinic visit and occasionally the police station happen in Georgian. We provide Arabic interpreters for these appointments, on site in Tbilisi and by video for students in Batumi and Kutaisi, and we work with international student offices at several universities to cover arrival weeks, when dozens of students need the same appointments at once. Medical interpreting - at consultations, diagnostics and hospital admissions, with translation of the records afterwards - is handled with strict confidentiality, and female interpreters are available on request.

Notary, property purchases and Gulf investors

Georgian notarial law requires an interpreter for any party who does not speak Georgian, and the notary records the interpreter in the deed. Gulf and Arab buyers of apartments, hotels and land in Batumi and Tbilisi, founders of LLCs, grantors of powers of attorney and parties to marriage contracts and wills use our notary at Agmashenebeli 117 with the interpreter built into the appointment: bilingual Georgian-Arabic draft in advance, clause-by-clause interpreting at the signing, one sitting. For Batumi transactions we provide interpreters at notaries in Batumi during the summer season and by video under the e-Notary procedure. We also accompany clients to the Public Registry for title registration, to the House of Justice for company and marriage registration, and to banks, and we translate the Public Registry extract and cadastral plan into Arabic for the buyer's records and their lawyer at home.

Hospitals, medical tourism and insurance

Georgia is developing as a medical tourism destination for Arab patients - dental work, IVF, cosmetic surgery, orthopedics, rehabilitation and check-ups at prices well below the Gulf - and Georgian clinics market actively in Arabic. We provide interpreters at consultations and admissions, remote interpreting for video consultations before travel, and translation of the patient's records before treatment and the Georgian discharge summary and invoice afterward for the patient's doctor and insurer at home. Arab residents and students in Georgia use the same service for everyday medical care. Female interpreters for female patients are available on request, and confidentiality is absolute.

Courts, police and official proceedings

Georgian courts provide interpreters in criminal cases, but in civil, family and commercial cases the parties bring their own. Cases involving Arab parties - landlord-tenant disputes, contract disputes with developers, divorce and custody in mixed marriages, debt recovery, labor claims - require an interpreter who knows the procedural vocabulary of both the Georgian and the relevant Arab legal system. We also interpret at police statements, at the Public Service Development Agency's interviews for residence and citizenship, and at notary depositions, and we translate the case file so what you read matches what is said. For proceedings in Arab courts joined remotely from Georgia, we interpret over video where the court permits.

Business interpreting: trade, investment and conferences

Gulf investment funds and family offices look at Georgian real estate, hospitality, energy and agriculture; Georgian exporters of wine, mineral water, nuts, fruit and meat sell to Gulf, Egyptian and Levantine importers, with halal certification a frequent topic; and Georgian universities recruit in Arab countries. We provide consecutive interpreters for negotiations, site visits, due diligence and trade missions, in Tbilisi, Batumi and by video, and simultaneous interpreting with booth equipment for conferences, investment forums and government events in Georgian-Arabic-English configurations. Support for trade fairs in Dubai, Riyadh and Cairo - Gulfood, Arabian Travel Market, Cityscape - is available through partners in the region.

Arabic localization for Gulf tourism, real estate and medical services, and booking

Gulf tourists are one of the largest and highest-spending visitor groups in Georgia, Gulf buyers are a growing presence in Batumi real estate, and Georgian clinics and universities recruit across the Arab world. All respond to Arabic-language content that reads natively, in right-to-left layout with proper Arabic typography, rather than English. We localize hotel and tourism websites and booking engines, real estate listings and developer sites, restaurant menus with halal information, medical tourism pages, university admission pages, wine and food catalogs, mobile apps and e-commerce stores into Modern Standard Arabic or Gulf-flavored Arabic as the audience requires, working directly in your CMS, in JSON and XLIFF files or in design files, handling RTL layout, Arabic numerals and mixed-direction text, writing meta titles that match Arabic search behavior, and testing the result on the live site with native Arabic editors doing the final pass. We also proofread Arabic written by non-native speakers and offer a monthly editing retainer.

To book an interpreter, send the date, place or meeting link, the subject and any documents to prepare from. Consecutive interpreting is billed hourly with a two-hour minimum on site in Tbilisi or Batumi and no minimum beyond the first hour for remote sessions; simultaneous work is billed by half-day or day with two interpreters alternating; travel between Tbilisi and Batumi is billed at cost. Same-day bookings are usually possible during office hours, and Batumi summer bookings should be made a few days ahead.
