Our Basic Certified UK translation is fully valid in the UK and includes a statement confirming details of the person who performed the Certified UK translation, the company's professional membership, that it is an accurate/complete translation of the original and our contact details. It is also dated and signed. See 'Certified UK translation Examples' opposite.
This is normally sufficient in the UK. If the translation is to be used in the Courts, or some embassies, or in some higher UK capacity, or for use overseas, a Sworn UK Certification is normally required.
We only need a scan/copy of the original for Basic Certified UK translation which you can upload in Step 3 or post/drop at 31A Crawford place, London W1H 4LL. There are exceptions (see to 'How to Send Certificates' opposite).

A Sworn UK Translation is a higher capacity certification with a declaration attached which has been sworn by the translator or translator representative in front of/signed by a Commissioner for Oaths (usually a Lawyer) confirming that it is an accurate/complete translation of the original certificate. It includes details of the person performing the translation, our details, signature, it also includes the lawyer's details and signature. See 'Certified UK translation Examples'.
This is normally sufficient for use in UKcourts, with some embassies or in some higher UK capacity or for use Overseas. If the Sworn UK Translation is for use Overseas, you may also need to have it Legalised (Apostille). Please check with whoever you are submitting the documents about Legalisation.
We usually require the original document for a Sworn UK Translation but we don't always stamp the original, instead we stamp a Certified True Copy at the Lawyer. We can get started with the translation from a scan/copy which you can upload in Step 3, but we will need the actual physical original soon after (send by post or drop off in person at 31A Crawford Place, London W1H 4LL). There are exceptions (see to How to Send Certificates).

The Translation UK Notarisation process is similar to the Sworn UK Transation process, except that the translation is sworn in front of and signed by a Notary Public, not a Lawyer. This is usually required for higher capacity commercial transactions for use abroad, some embassies, higher court cases. See 'Certified UK translation Examples'.
If the translation is for use outside the UK you may also need to have it legalised (Apostille). Please check with whoever you are submitting the translation about translation UK legalisation.

The translation will be sent to you by email only without any certification stamp on it.
