Common Questions
Questions people usually ask
What are certified koseki translation UK services?
These services provide accurate translations of koseki documents, certified for official use.
Do you translate koseki documents for official use?
Yes, we specialize in certified translations suitable for submission to authorities.
Can I do this online?
Absolutely! You can upload your documents and receive a quote online.
Will you translate stamps and seals?
Yes, all visible text, including stamps and seals, will be accurately translated.
What's the difference between certified, notarised, and sworn translation?
A certified translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy and meets the requirements of most UK official bodies. A notarised translation adds verification by a notary public, required by some courts and embassies. A sworn translation is a formal legal declaration by a recognised translator, required by certain countries and courts. We help you identify which level is right for your document and destination.
Can I send a photo from my phone rather than a scanned PDF?
Yes — a clear, well-lit photo is fine. We'll confirm whether it's readable and let you know if a better image is needed before we start. Where a document has text on the reverse, please send both sides.
How much does a certified translation cost?
Pricing depends on document length, language pair, and turnaround option. We provide a clear, fixed quote before any work begins — no hidden fees.
Is my document kept confidential?
Yes. Your documents are handled securely and only shared with the translator and reviewer working on your project. We treat personal and legal documents with care and strict confidentiality throughout.
