I faced the same problem month ago but I think I found a great solution. 1) Change your TabLayout direction to ltr in xml:

2) Create custom adapter for ViewPager and override methods getItem(int position) and getPageTitle(int position):

@Override
public Fragment getItem(int position) {
    if (mIsRtlOrientation && mTabs != null && mTabs.length > 0) {
        return mTabs[mTabs.length - position - 1].getFragment();
    } else {
        return mTabs[position].getFragment();
    }
}

@Override
public int getCount() {
    return mTabs.length;
}

@Override
public CharSequence getPageTitle(int position) {
    if (mIsRtlOrientation && mTabs != null && mTabs.length > 0) {
        return mTabs[mTabs.length - position - 1].getTitle();
    } else {
        return mTabs[position].getTitle();
    }
}

3) Set the adapter to ViewPager and then apply this ViewPager to TabLayout.

private void setAdapters() {
    // initialize adapter
    mTabsAdapter = new TabsAdapter(getSupportFragmentManager(), mTabs, true);
    // set adapter to ViewPager
    vp.setAdapter(mTabsAdapter);
    // set ViewPager to TabLayout
    tl.setupWithViewPager(vp);
    // if RTL orientation, go to last item
    vp.setCurrentItem(vp.getAdapter().getCount() - 1, false);
}
