Certified Document Translation in Cardiff
As the capital of Wales, Cardiff is a dynamic hub for government, media, and legal sectors, all requiring high-quality bilingual and multilingual support. With the Welsh Government and Senedd based in Cardiff Bay, there is a critical need for accurate English-Welsh translation as well as international language services for diplomatic and trade missions. Lingo Service provides certified translations that meet the strict bilingual standards of Welsh public sector bodies.
Cardiff's thriving media industry, home to BBC Cymru Wales, S4C, and Bad Wolf studios, demands rapid and precise translation for scripts, subtitles, and production logistics. We support Cardiff's creative sector with fast turnaround times and culturally nuanced translations that resonate with diverse audiences. Additionally, our services cover the legal needs of firms in the Civic Centre, handling bilingual contracts and court documentation.
We also serve Cardiff's diverse communities in Riverside, Grangetown, and Butetown, providing certified personal document translation for visa applications, academic transcripts for Cardiff University students, and medical records. Whether you need a birth certificate translated for the Home Office or a complex technical manual for an aerospace manufacturer in St Athan, our digital-first service connects you with expert linguists without the need to visit an office.
Cardiff is also home to our Welsh translation team: native Welsh translators working in both directions for the Welsh Government, health boards, councils and businesses, with certified Welsh documents from £35 and same-day options for short jobs.
