Settlement of a bounced cheque for defaulting on a bank loan
Naser, Salaam alaikum
We want to file a case against X related to a bank issue in Ajman. We are submitting the relevant proof/documents like memorandum, emails...etc.
They will be translated into Arabic, legal translation. The case also involves bank statements that show that we paid as proof.
My question:
Do we need to do the legal translation of all 24 pages of bank statements in Arabic?
They are given by the bank in English and exported as PDF from the bank account (electronic) and has all the details, bank logo, etc...
Please clarify.
Shukran
In such instances, the bank statements do not need to be translated into Arabic.
It would normally be handed over to an independent forensic auditor appointed by the court who will go through the details and provide an opinion to the court.
So, the translation of bank statements is not necessary.
