Translation & Interpretation Services in Embakasi and Eastlands
Certified translation for JKIA import/export documentation, visa applications, and the families and businesses of Eastlands – the neighbourhood Tiseh calls home.
This one’s personal for us. Tiseh’s own office sits right here, off Savannah Road in Donholm. We’re not claiming proximity to Embakasi and Eastlands from across the city; this is our actual neighbourhood.
Embakasi’s identity is shaped by Jomo Kenyatta International Airport and the dense cluster of clearing and forwarding agents, customs brokers, and logistics companies operating around it. Bills of lading, certificates of origin, customs declarations, and cargo documentation all need to be accurate and properly certified – a translation error here can hold up a shipment for days. Meanwhile, Eastlands neighbourhoods like Buruburu, Umoja, and Donholm have long-standing ties to the US Diversity Visa lottery and family reunification abroad, meaning certified translation of birth certificates, academic transcripts, and immigration documents is something we handle constantly for our own neighbours.
Getting to Tiseh: Tiseh Limited is based at Old, Lower, 371 Savannah Rd, Nairobi — right here in Donholm. If you’re in Embakasi or Eastlands, we’re likely closer to you than any other translation provider in the city. Call 0729 155976 or walk in to discuss your documents directly.
