Arab Council Australia initiated a new Translation Service on 28 March 2007. This service is in line with Council’s vision and principles of advancing the interests of the community and of improving access to affordable and relevant services.
The Translation Service is available to members of the community, government departments and agencies, private and commercial organisations and to community groups.
Translation services are offered for personal documents, qualifications, multilingual pamphlets and books, as well as technical and more complex material.
Translations will be conducted by accredited and certified translators (minimum NAATI level 3) and are available from Arabic into English and from English into Arabic.
Fees for this service apply and are set at below standard charges. Financial members of the Council are eligible to further discounts
Bookings for the translation service are available during work hours, Monday to Friday (excluding public holidays) and may be made in person at Council offices.
