How do you keep terminology consistent?

What must a certified translation include?

A certified translation must include a full translation of all visible text, a signed Certificate of Accuracy, and the translator’s full name, contact details, signature, and date. This is the standard required by USCIS, the UK Home Office, courts, and most official bodies.

Pricing depends on document length, language pair, and turnaround. Short standard documents are typically priced per page; multi-page packs are quoted as a set. Send your file for a free quote.
