Certified translation services
Certified Translation –
Quick, Accurate & Reliable
Certified translation services are professional translation services where the translator or translation agency provides a signed statement (often called a certificate of accuracy) declaring that the translation is a true, complete, and accurate representation of the original document.
These services are typically required when submitting translated documents to government agencies, courts, embassies, universities, or regulatory authorities.
Certified translations give official assurance that the translation can be trusted for legal, academic, or official purposes.
Common documents needing certified translation include:
- Birth, marriage, and death certificates
- Academic transcripts and diplomas
- Immigration documents (passports, visas, residency papers)
- Court documents and legal contracts
- Business registration and financial records
Comparison of Certified, Notarized, and Sworn Translations
| Type of translation | What it is: | Purpose: | Where used: |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1. Certified Translation | A translation accompanied by a signed statement (certificate of accuracy) from the translator or agency. | Confirms the translation is complete and accurate. | Immigration, academic, and some legal submissions (e.g., USCIS in the U.S., universities, courts). |
| 2. Notarized Translation | A translation where the translator’s signature on the certification statement is notarized by a notary public. | The notary verifies the identity of the translator, not the quality of the translation. | Often required for official documents in countries where notaries have legal authority to validate signatures (e.g., Vietnam, Russia). |
| 3. Sworn Translation | A translation completed by a sworn translator who has been officially appointed/authorized by a government or court. | Carries the same legal value as the original document. | Common in countries like France, Spain, Italy, Brazil, where translators must be “sworn” before a court or ministry to perform this service. |
