Arabic, or the file goes nowhere
A Syrian office works in Arabic. It will not read an Italian sheet, and it will not ask anyone else to. So a certified translation for Syria is the first thing to line up, before postage, before stamps, before anything. Get it wrong and every later step is wasted. Get it right and the rest of the route is mostly waiting.
Rebuilding a page right to left
Arabic runs right to left, so a page cannot simply be typed over. Columns flip. Tables mirror. Dates change shape and have to be set out in a form a clerk will know at a glance. That is real hand work, which is why a certified translation into Arabic in Verona takes a few more days than a plain letter would.
A signature, not an oath
You do not have to find a sworn Arabic translator in Verona. There is no court date, no oath and no judge on this route. A certified Arabic translator signs a short sheet instead, and puts a name, a date and a sheet count on it. That sheet is what a ministry reads first. A notary stamp can be added on top when a desk asks for one.
What it costs, and when it lands
The rate is ~€30 / page, where a page is one sheet of your Italian source. A normal run takes 3–5 business days, since the layout work is slower on this route. A tight date can be met in 48 hours on a short file. Ask for that lane when you first write, and send clean scans the same hour.
At the ministry desk
Consulates and ministries see this kind of set every day, and they check it in a fixed order: signed sheet, sheet count, then the Arabic itself. A certified translation in Verona for Syria that keeps all three in one bundle rarely stalls. Pull the signed sheet out and you have removed the only thing that ties the file together.
Names cause more trouble here than anything else. The script gives more than one fair way to write a family name, so tell us the form that already sits on your other papers and we copy it. An official Arabic translation in Verona that spells a name a new way will be queried, even when the new way is the better one.
