A translation prepared for its intended use
A certified document translation must be accurate, traceable and suitable for the organisation receiving it. We ask about the intended use before ordering because a standard certified translation, sworn certification, notarisation or legalisation may be appropriate in different situations.
Before ordering, tell us which organisation will receive the translation and in which country. This helps identify the appropriate service and avoids assuming that every authority follows the same rules.
Useful details for this service
Choosing the right certification level
Most UK administrative uses accept a standard certified translation, while courts, embassies, overseas registries and some high-formality procedures may request sworn, notarised or legalised translations. The quote journey helps you select the option, but the receiving authority has the final say.
Documents with stamps, seals and notes
Official documents often include handwritten entries, stamps, reverse-side notes and issuing-authority references. Upload the full scan so the translation does not miss details that could matter to the application.

Frequently asked questions
What makes a translation certified?
A certified translation includes a declaration, company details and the relevant signature or stamp confirming that the translation is accurate and complete for the submitted document.
Can you translate several document types in one order?
Yes. Add each document to the quote and include all pages so the estimate reflects the full scope and any certification or delivery requirements.
What type of certification should I choose?
The appropriate level depends on the receiving authority and where the translation will be used. Our quote journey provides guidance, but you should confirm whether the recipient requires standard certification, sworn certification, notarisation or legalisation.
How do I get an exact price and delivery estimate?
Use the online quote form and select the document, source language, number of pages and intended use. The estimate updates as you choose the relevant options.
