    FAQ

    Key questions – and all the answers

    • What is a certified translation?

      A certified translation is a translation that is officially recognised by ministries, authorities and courts. It can only be produced by sworn translators because they are the only individuals authorised to do so. They ensure the translation, including stamp, signature and attestation clause, is correct, complete and remains faithful to the layout of the original document.

    • When do I need a certified translation?

      Companies with international operations frequently require translations that are recognised by ministries, authorities and courts or also by the police. We therefore produce frequently certified translations of certificates of registration, contracts, T&Cs, certificates and deeds, and financial reports. The source or target language must be German.

    • Who produces certified translations?

      Certified translations may only be created by sworn translators, who are officially authorised and have taken an oath to that effect in front of a court of law. Other terms include: sworn, authorised, certified, officially appointed, court-appointed and publicly appointed translators. The titles vary depending on the federal state; however, the oath taken in front of every court of law throughout Germany is valid irrespective of the job title and federal state.

    • What do certified translations look like?

      Certified translations have a title such as “Confirmed translation from English” and all the translated content is arranged in a similar way to the original document (true to the original). At the end is an attestation clause, which confirms that the translation is complete and correct. Place, date, signature and contact details of the translator as well as a stamp are also added here. For multi-page documents, the stamp should be seen on every page. A copy of the template is also stapled to the certified translation.

    • How quickly will I get my certified translation?

      We deliver certified translations promptly. As with any translation order, it depends on the language combination requested and the scope of the documents. You can expect a certificate in the language combination English − German to be delivered in just a few days; a multi-page contract in the combination German − Greek may take a bit more time. Our Express and Super-Express options are there to help you prioritise and speed up your order. You can get your certified translation in PDF form from us quickly by email and a little later by post.

    • How do I order my certified translations?

      The best way is to send an email and include the documents attached. Our team will need the following information so they can put together a quotation for you, which will include costs and delivery date: Number of documents, number of pages and language combination (e.g. German – British English). For English translations, please differentiate between British and American English. For the exact calculation, we also need your documents to be an easy-to-read PDF document or photo. To speed up your order, you can also request our Express and Super-Express options.
