Why Certified English Translations Are Crucial
Certified translations are more than just a direct linguistic conversion. These translations carry the authority and accuracy required for official use. Institutions such as universities, courts, government bodies, the Home Office, and immigration services require certified translations to verify the authenticity and precision of documents. These documents can range from birth certificates, marriage certificates, academic records, to legal contracts and more.
Certified English translation ensures your documents are officially accepted and comply with the specific requirements of these institutions. With Diplomat Translation, we guarantee that all translations are handled by certified, native English-speaking translators who possess the necessary expertise to maintain the integrity of your documents.

Understanding the Process of Certified Translations
Certified translations are essential when submitting documents to UK authorities, including legal documents, academic records, or immigration forms. Unlike standard translations, certified translations come with a declaration from the translator stating that the translation is a true and accurate representation of the original document.
This certificate of authenticity makes the document legally valid and acceptable in official proceedings. It assures institutions that the translation accurately reflects the original content, ensuring that no details are lost or misinterpreted.

What Are Certified Translations?
Certified translations are a specialised form of translation that is authenticated and validated for use in official and legal contexts. These translations are typically required when documents need to be submitted to various institutions, such as governmental bodies, universities, courts, and immigration offices. Unlike standard translations, certified translations come with a guarantee of accuracy and authenticity.
A certified translation is accompanied by a certificate or statement signed by the translator or a representative of the translation agency. This certificate attests that the translation is a true and accurate representation of the original document. It serves as proof that the translated document can be relied upon for its content and can be legally used as a replacement for the original in official proceedings.

Legalization and Notarization
Certified translations are a critical requirement for various institutions and organizations in the UK. However, the legalization and notarization of these translations may be necessary based on specific circumstances.
If you’re submitting your translated document to a UK court, the rules have changed in recent times. While it was previously necessary to have your translation certified by a solicitor, the process is now more straightforward. The translator can simply sign a standard statutory declaration, which we use at Diplomat Translation. This simplifies the process and ensures the acceptance of your translated document by UK courts.
International Use of Certified Translations
If your translation is intended for use outside the UK, it might require further steps. In addition to translation and certification, it may need to be certified by a Notary Public and legalized by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO). This ensures the document’s authenticity and compliance with international legal standards.
To determine the precise requirements for your document’s legalization, it’s advisable to contact your local consular service or the relevant authorities. This ensures that you follow the correct procedure and acquire the necessary level of certification for your document’s intended use abroad.
