Hassaniyya is the spoken Arabic of Mauritania and the Western Sahara; its records are written in Standard Arabic or French, so document work runs from those, while interpreting calls for a Hassaniyya speaker specifically, in Regina and across Canada.
Certified Hassaniyya to English Translation in Regina
We provide certified translation into English of the Standard Arabic and French civil documents behind a Hassaniyya speaker's file, including Sahrawi refugee records, labelled plainly by source.
Hassaniyya is the Bedouin Arabic variety spoken by the Beydane and Haratine of Mauritania, by Sahrawis of the Western Sahara, and by communities in parts of Mali, Senegal, Morocco and Algeria. It is a spoken variety and is not written on its own; the birth, marriage, identity and civil-status records of these communities are issued in Modern Standard Arabic, and in Mauritania often in French as well. A request for a Hassaniyya translation is therefore a request to translate Standard Arabic or French civil documents into English.
Two points need care. Mauritanian and Sahrawi names carry tribal and patronymic elements that transliterate several ways from Arabic, and we keep the spelling consistent with the passport while noting alternates against the original. Sahrawi refugee documents may come from camp administration or from Algerian authorities rather than a settled registry, and we translate them as they are and label their source plainly rather than dress them up.
Translations are issued as a certified translation by a qualified translator, or as a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, such as IRCC, the IRB or a provincial registry.
Every certified Hassaniyya translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet IRCC requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Regina gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

Hassaniyya Translator in Regina
Certified Hassaniyya translation in Regina means translating the Standard Arabic or French civil records Mauritania and the Sahrawi authorities actually issue, with tribal and patronymic names kept consistent with the passport.
Regina is Saskatchewan's capital, a centre for government, agriculture, energy and finance on Treaty 4 territory and in the homeland of the Metis. Immigration has reshaped the city, with newcomers making up a large share of recent growth. Tagalog and Punjabi are the most common non-official mother tongues, followed by Arabic, Hindi and Spanish, while Cree, Michif and other Indigenous languages remain part of the region.
This diversity creates steady demand for translation and interpreting. The Court of King's Bench for Saskatchewan and the Provincial Court of Saskatchewan both sit in Regina, and the Regina General Hospital under the Saskatchewan Health Authority treats patients across many languages. The University of Regina, the Regina Open Door Society and other settlement agencies serving IRCC newcomers, and employers in government, agriculture and energy regularly need accurate translation and interpreting.
Hassaniyya Interpreters in Regina
Our Hassaniyya interpreters cover IRB hearings, IRCC interviews and medical appointments in Regina, and we confirm the speaker's variety and the setting at booking.
The Hassaniyya need is largely spoken, and it matters that the interpreter actually speaks the variety. A Standard Arabic or Levantine interpreter will follow only part of a Hassaniyya account, which has its own vocabulary and pronunciation, so we match a Hassaniyya speaker for an IRB refugee hearing or an IRCC interview rather than a generic Arabic speaker. We confirm the client's preferred language and the interpreting requirements before the hearing so a Hassaniyya interpreter, not a generic Arabic one, is assigned.
Interpreting is available in Regina on site, and by phone or video across Canada. Remote sessions are common. Tell us at booking that the speaker uses Hassaniyya, and where they are from, so we send the right person.
For an in-person assignment in Regina we assign a Hassaniyya interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. Courts, law firms, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private clients book us directly. See Hassaniyya interpreter in Regina for the full interpreting service.
About the Hassaniyya Language
Hassaniyya is an Arabic dialect spoken by around 4 million people in Mauritania, Western Sahara, and parts of Morocco, Algeria, Mali, and Senegal. It's the language of the Sahrawi people and significantly diverged from Modern Standard Arabic, with influences from Berber and West African languages. Hassaniyya speakers in Canada are served through our national interpreter network, with records from Mauritania and the region issued in Standard Arabic or French and translated from those. Hassaniyya is usually written in Arabic script.

Hassaniyya Translation Services in Regina: FAQs
Are my Mauritanian documents in Hassaniyya?
No. They are issued in Standard Arabic, and often in French, because Hassaniyya is a spoken variety and is not written on its own. We translate the Arabic or French records into English and match names to the passport.
Why do you ask for a Hassaniyya interpreter specifically?
Because a generic Arabic interpreter will miss part of a Hassaniyya account, which differs in vocabulary and pronunciation. For a refugee hearing we match a Hassaniyya speaker so testimony is heard accurately.
