Tigre Interpreter in Moncton, NB

Tigre interpreting and certified translation in Moncton and across Canada, mostly for IRB refugee hearings and IRCC files, where documentation is thin and often written in Arabic or Tigrinya rather than Tigre.

Tigre Interpreters in Moncton

Our Tigre interpreters cover IRB hearings, IRCC interviews and medical settings in Moncton, with Tigre distinguished from Tigrinya and the regional variety matched where possible.

Tigre has regional varieties across the Eritrean lowlands and into Sudan, differing in vocabulary and pronunciation, and it is distinct from Tigrinya even though the names are similar, so we confirm the language and the speaker's home area at booking. Many Tigre speakers also have Arabic, but relying on a second language in a refugee hearing is a risk when a single word carries weight.

Our Tigre interpreters work mainly in IRB refugee protection hearings and IRCC interviews, alongside hospital and clinic appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA and settlement and legal-aid meetings. The community in Canada is small, so most work is by phone or video anywhere in the country, with in-person attendance in Moncton where it can be scheduled.

For an in-person assignment in Moncton we assign a Tigre interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. We serve courts, lawyers, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private individuals; we are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor, and we say so up front.

Tigre to English Translation Services in Moncton

Certified English translation of the Arabic, Tigrinya or Tigre records a Tigre-speaking family holds, such as identity and civil-status papers and UNHCR paperwork, with the source confirmed first and nothing added.

Tigre, called Tigrayit or Xasa by its speakers, is a Semitic language of the mostly Muslim Tigre people in the lowlands of Eritrea and eastern Sudan. It should not be confused with Tigrinya, which is a separate language. Tigre has historically been written in the Ge'ez (Ethiopic) script, and some material also appears in Arabic script, but everyday literacy in Tigre itself is limited, so many speakers read and write Arabic instead.

Because of this, a Tigre speaker's civil records are frequently issued in Arabic or Tigrinya rather than Tigre, and the translation request is often for one of those languages. Refugee files usually hold limited documentation, and where a record is missing a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths can set out how a name or date of birth was established. Output is issued by a certified translator or supported by affidavit, and acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.

Every certified Tigre 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 Moncton gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada. See certified Tigre translation for the document service in full.

About the Tigre Language

Tigre is a Semitic language spoken by around 1.5 million people in northern Eritrea and adjacent parts of Sudan. It's closely related to Tigrinya and Ge'ez but distinct. The Tigre-speaking community in Canada is small, concentrated alongside the broader Eritrean-Canadian population in Toronto and other large cities. Our Tigre translation work is occasional and typically tied to IRB refugee hearings and IRCC asylum documentation.

Tigre Interpreting in Moncton: FAQs

Is Tigre the same as Tigrinya?

No. Despite the similar names, Tigre and Tigrinya are separate languages. We confirm the language at booking so the right interpreter attends and the right source is translated.

My documents are in Arabic or Tigrinya, not Tigre. Can you help?

Yes. Tigre records are frequently issued in Arabic or Tigrinya, so we confirm the source language and translate from it faithfully, keeping the original as written.

I have very few papers from a refugee background. What can be translated?

We translate whatever you hold without adding anything, and a sworn affidavit can explain how a name or date was established. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.

Do you have an office in Moncton?

Tigre translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in Moncton we assign a Tigre interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in Canada.
