What Is a Certified Translation?

A certified translation is a translated document supplied with a signed certification statement confirming that the translation is a true and accurate rendering of the original document.

This type of translation is commonly requested when documents are being submitted for official or formal use. Requirements can vary depending on the organisation receiving the document, so it is always sensible to check the exact format they expect before ordering.

Definition

A certified translation is a translated document accompanied by a signed statement from the translator confirming it is a true and accurate rendering of the original. This statement gives the receiving authority assurance that the translation has been professionally prepared.

Our Standards

Our Approach to Accuracy and Compliance

When clients order certified translations, accuracy matters and the document is being used for an important purpose. Here is how we approach every project.

 

Accuracy

We aim to ensure names, dates, figures, places and document content are translated clearly and consistently throughout the entire document.

Clear Certification

Certified translations are supplied with a certification statement confirming the accuracy of the translation, signed and dated by the translator responsible.

Professional Presentation

Where possible, we keep the translated layout neat and structured so the final document is easy to review and ready to submit to the receiving authority.

Requirement Awareness

Different institutions may ask for different forms of document support. In some cases, certified translation is sufficient. In others, notarisation, legalisation or apostille may also be required.

Always confirm the exact requirement with the receiving authority before ordering
