Choosing the right option

Certification depends on where the translation will be used

Some documents only need a clear translation, while others need certification or an additional notarisation-related step. The receiving organisation’s requirements should guide the service you choose.

Service option Best suited for What to check before ordering
Certified translation Official document submissions where a signed certification statement is required. Check the receiving authority’s wording, format and document-copy requirements.
Notarised translation option Cases where an additional notarisation step is requested by the receiving organisation. Confirm whether notarisation is actually required before paying for the extra step.
Apostille-ready handling Documents that may need preparation before being used internationally. Confirm whether the apostille is needed on the original, the translation, or supporting paperwork.
Specialist document translation Legal, medical, financial, technical, academic or business records with specialist wording. Send clear files and any preferred terminology or previous translations where relevant.
