What is a notarized translation?

A certified translation with an additional notarial act

A notarized translation begins with a complete professional translation and a signed certification statement confirming its completeness and accuracy.

A notary public then completes the required notarial act for the signature or sworn statement. The notary does not replace the translator and does not perform the linguistic quality review.

Because requirements differ between courts, universities, registries, consulates and overseas authorities, the wording from the receiving office should be checked before ordering.

Ask About Your Document
What is a notarized translation?

A notarized translation is a certified translation that has gone through an additional notarial process for the relevant signature or sworn certification statement.

Does the notary confirm that the translation is accurate?

The translator remains responsible for the translation and its accuracy certification. The notary completes the applicable notarial act for the signer, signature, oath or acknowledgment.

Do all certified translations need to be notarized?

No. Many organizations accept an ordinary certified translation. Notarisation should normally be added when the receiving authority specifically requests it.

Is notarisation the same as an apostille?

No. Notarisation is a notarial act connected with a signature or sworn statement. An apostille is a separate authentication certificate used for qualifying documents intended for use in another country.

Which documents can be translated and notarized?

Common examples include birth, marriage, divorce and death certificates, academic transcripts, diplomas, powers of attorney, contracts, court records and company documents.

Can I upload a photograph of my document?

A clear photograph can be reviewed when every page, edge, field, stamp, seal and handwritten note is visible. A replacement file may be requested when information is blurred, cropped or covered by glare.

How long does a notarized translation take?

Timing depends on the language pair, document length, complexity, translation availability, notarial route and whether additional authentication is required. The delivery time is confirmed after the files are reviewed.

How much does notarized translation cost?

Pricing depends on the translation scope, language pair, document length, deadline and notarial requirements. Upload the complete document and instructions for a fixed quote.

Can the translation also be apostilled or legalized?

Additional authentication may be possible where required. The correct sequence depends on the destination country, document type and the authority’s instructions.
