Official & Certified Translation Services UK

A certified translation is an official translation of a document, accompanied by a certification that confirms the translation is a true and accurate representation of the original. It's often required by UK authorities for legal, academic, or official purposes.

The certification must include the translator's signature, date, and company contact details — usually on official letterhead.

Yes, absolutely. We offer Home Office-approved certified translation for immigration, visa, and asylum documents.

Need something specific? Just ask — we'll do our best to accommodate.

A notarised translation is a certified translation that is:

• Signed in front of a UK Notary Public
• Sealed and stamped by the Notary

This is often required for legal proceedings, overseas visa applications, or foreign universities.

An Apostille is a government-issued certificate that verifies the authenticity of a document for use in other countries under the Hague Convention.

You might need an Apostille if:

• You're submitting documents to a foreign government
• You're involved in legal or academic matters overseas

We offer Apostille services alongside certified translation if needed.

A Statement of Truth is a formal declaration included with some certified translations. It confirms:

• The translation is a true and accurate version of the original
• The translator is suitably qualified to perform the translation

This is often required in court-related documents or legal affidavits.

The UK does not have an official "sworn translation" system like some European countries. Instead, the UK uses certified translations which serve the same legal purpose.

If you need a translation for use outside the UK in a country that requires "sworn translation," we can provide a notarised translation with Apostille, which is the internationally recognised equivalent.

Certified translation starts from £35 + VAT for the first document and £25 + VAT for each additional document.

Includes full certification, official stamp, and digital PDF delivery. Longer documents are priced per word from £0.10. See full pricing breakdown.
