What is certified translation Service?

As a full member of the Association of Translation Companies in the UK, we provide certified translation service for almost all languages and type of documents.

Your document will be translated, and a certificate of authenticity will be issued in English. The certificate will be on our headed paper, signed and stamped by us. We will also stamp the translation and the copy of the source document.

The certificate of authenticity will confirm:

• That it’s to the best of our knowledge and belief a true and accurate translation of the original document.
• The date of the translation.
• The full name and contact details of the Project Manager/Translator.

Certified translation is usually requested by The Home Office, Passport Office, DVLA, UK ENIC, employers, courts, embassies, universities, professional councils, and banks. However, certification requirements of different UK and foreign organisations may vary. Therefore, we recommend contacting the organisation for which your translation is intended before purchasing.

Legalisation is not the same as certified translation. Legalisation might be required if you want to use your certified translation abroad. You may legalise your documents first, then send us scanned copies of your legalised documents by email to be translated and certified as above. Please always seek your independent legal advice. 

Finally, unlike in other countries, there is no such thing as a ‘‘Sworn Translator’’ or ‘‘Official Translator’’ in the UK, as no recognised public body gives this authorisation to translators.
