What Trips People Up

Name Transliteration Inconsistencies in Egyptian Documents

Egyptian Arabic names transliterate into English in multiple ways, and different documents may use different spellings — Mohamed vs. Muhammad, Sherif vs. Sharif, Hany vs. Hani. When these appear across USCIS applications, it triggers RFEs. We carefully review all name spellings across your documents and prepare a name variation explanation letter where needed.

Frequently Asked Questions — Egypt Visa in Valleydale

What is an Egyptian Katb Kitab and do I need it translated?+
Katb Kitab (كتب كتاب) is the Islamic marriage contract used in Egypt. Yes, it needs certified English translation for US immigration applications — including the names of both parties, the dowry terms, the date, and the witnesses. We translate these accurately.
My Egyptian family member needs a Coptic marriage certificate translated. Can Asal help?+
Yes. Coptic Christian marriage certificates from Egyptian churches are in Arabic and have a different format than civil or Islamic marriage contracts. We translate all types of Egyptian marriage documents, including Coptic church certificates.
How do I get certified copies of Egyptian documents from the US?+
You generally need a contact in Egypt to request certified copies from the Civil Status Authority office (شهر عقاري) in your family's district. Once you have the documents, bring them to us for translation. We advise on what level of certification (notarization, apostille) is needed for your specific application.
Can Asal help me sponsor an Egyptian family member for a US visa?+
Yes. We help you prepare the support and invitation letter package for a B-2 visa application, plus translated copies of your relationship documents (birth certificates, marriage certificates) to demonstrate the family connection.
