Sworn Translation

Requirements vary between organisations and countries. Send any instructions supplied by the recipient so they can be considered before work begins.
What certified translation services do you provide in the UK?
We provide certified translations for legal, academic, immigration, business and personal documents, including birth certificates, marriage certificates, death certificates, divorce certificates, passports, academic transcripts, diplomas, legal contracts, court documents and company records.
Will my certified translation be accepted by UK authorities?
Certified translations are prepared for formal submission to UK authorities, universities, employers, courts, embassies and immigration bodies. A receiving organisation may have its own wording, format or delivery rules, so send those instructions before ordering.
What is the difference between certified, notarised, sworn and apostilled translations?
A certified translation includes a signed statement of accuracy. A notarised translation has the relevant signature witnessed or authenticated by a notary public. A sworn translation is produced by a translator authorised for a jurisdiction that requires sworn status. Apostille support is used when eligible documents require additional authentication for international use.
How long will my certified translation take?
Turnaround depends on the language pair, document length, source quality, formatting and certification level. Common personal documents can often be handled quickly, and urgent options may be available after review. The expected delivery time is confirmed before work begins.
How is the price calculated?
Pricing is based on the document type, amount of text, language pair, formatting, certification level, deadline and delivery requirements. Send the document for a clear fixed quotation before work begins.
