What to lock in before sending
A little context here usually saves a lot of back-and-forth later.
- Say upfront which transliteration of the name must stay aligned with the passport or other certificates.
- Send all pages, stamps and annexes of the Arabic document.
- Flag whether the French version must stay aligned with another record already filed.
- Say whether an apostille, legalisation or previous translation already exists in the file.

What the receiving authority will check

Stamps and official mentions
Bilingual stamps, numbers and handwritten mentions need to stay usable, not merely readable.
Cross-document consistency
These files rarely stand alone: every name, place and date needs to stay aligned from one record to the next.
