What Our Clients Say
We brought in this team for a two-day assignment. Our client needed an interpreter throughout, and they delivered without a single issue. Punctual, professional, and the interpreter handled some fairly technical legal discussion without missing a beat.
English is not my first language and the legal process here was quite confusing. The interpreter was patient, not just translating words but making sure I understood what was going on. The price was fair, no surprises at the end.
Excellent service! Very professional.
Very affordable and professional.
I had an excellent experience with IM translation services. They delivered fast, professional, and reliable service at a very reasonable rate. Communication was smooth, and everything was handled efficiently without any delays.

Arabic Interpreter London: How Our Service Works
Looking for an Arabic interpreter in London? We are a London-based agency with DBS-checked Arabic interpreters. They work on-site across all 33 boroughs, and by video or phone anywhere in the UK. See our full range on our interpreting services in London page.
Every booking starts with the dialect. Arabic sounds different in Cairo, Baghdad, Beirut and Rabat. So we ask where your client is from, then match the interpreter. We confirm a fixed price before you book.
What does an Arabic court interpreter do?
A court interpreter conveys everything said in the hearing and stays impartial. They do not advise or explain the law. We can supply interpreters for hearings at courts across London, such as the Old Bailey, Southwark Crown Court and Woolwich Crown Court. NRPSI-registered interpreters are available for this work.
- Crown courts and magistrates’ courts across London
- Police interviews and custody suites — see our police interpreter page
- Immigration hearings — see our immigration interpreter and asylum interpreter pages
- Solicitor meetings and conferences with counsel — see our court interpreter page
- Civil, family and employment tribunals
When do you need an Arabic medical interpreter?
Use one whenever a patient and clinician do not share a language. That includes GP appointments, hospital consultations, mental health assessments and maternity care. These conversations are sensitive, so interpreters stay impartial and confidential. You can ask for a female interpreter, and we confirm availability when you book.
Telephone or video: which Arabic interpreting is right?
Not every booking needs someone in the room. Telephone interpreting suits short calls and out-of-hours needs. Video interpreting on Zoom or Microsoft Teams adds face-to-face contact without the travel.
Most appointments use consecutive interpreting, where the interpreter speaks after each pause. Conferences use simultaneous interpreting, which needs equipment. Small meetings can use whispered interpreting.
What is NRPSI, and why does it matter?
NRPSI is the National Register of Public Service Interpreters. Registered interpreters have shown their language skills and agreed to a code of conduct. Many courts and public bodies prefer them. So we make NRPSI-registered Arabic interpreters available for court and public-service work. Ask for one when you book.
Need documents translated as well? See the Arabic translation section above, or our certified Arabic translation in London.
Do you provide certified legal Arabic translation?
Yes. Our certified Arabic translations come with a signed statement of accuracy. Typical legal documents are court papers, witness statements, contracts, powers of attorney and marriage or birth certificates. Tell us who will receive the document, and we confirm what that body requires. See our certified translation and document translation pages.
Can you also provide an Arabic translator?
Yes. An interpreter speaks, and a translator works on written text. We offer both. Our Arabic translators work from Arabic to English, English to Arabic, and between Arabic and other languages. Many clients book an Arabic interpreter for the hearing and an Arabic translator for the papers. See Arabic translation in London for prices and turnaround.
How much does an Arabic interpreter cost?
