Notarised document translation
Professional document translation prepared for an additional notarial step when a court, overseas authority, institution or other receiving organisation specifically requests it.
The reported acceptance figure relates to translation documents and does not guarantee the outcome of a visa, court, legal or other application.
About the service
A notarised translation is a translated document supplied with an additional notarial formality. The precise form depends on what the receiving organisation has requested.
The document is first translated and checked. The relevant certification, declaration or signature can then be presented to a notary public in the required form. This creates an additional layer of authentication beyond a standard certified translation.
Notarisation should not be ordered simply because a document is important. It is normally appropriate when the authority, court, overseas institution, embassy, business or legal adviser handling the matter has explicitly asked for it.
Choose the correct route
These services perform different functions. The correct option is the one named in the receiving organisation’s current instructions.
A complete translation accompanied by a signed statement confirming accuracy and completeness.
A translated document prepared with an additional notarial act relating to its declaration, signature or supporting copy.
A separate process used to authenticate an eligible UK signature, stamp or seal for official use in another country.

Straightforward requests may take approximately one to three business days. The confirmed delivery time depends on the document, language, required notarial act, deadline and notary availability.

Provide clear copies of every relevant page, the source and required languages, the intended country or authority, your deadline and any written instructions explaining what must be notarised.
