Certification and swearing

On occasions it is possible that you will require certification of a translation for use in court, for service overseas or for production to official bodies. We can therefore provide you with a translator's certificate, or an affidavit from the translator, sworn before either a solicitor or a notary, as appropriate. Foreign & Commonwealth Office legalisation (attachment of an apostille) for sworn translations can also be arranged.

Official bodies overseas will often ask for a translation to be provided by a 'sworn' or 'official' translator. Such translators, registered with local courts and town halls, exist throughout mainland Europe, but not in the UK. In these intances an affidavit sworn by the translator as detailed above will usually suffice, either with or without an apostille depending on which country the translation is required for.
