FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is an apostille translation service?
It is a service that prepares documents for overseas use, involving certified translation and apostille handling.
Do I need the translation before or after the apostille?
It depends on the document and authority; we recommend checking requirements first.
What is the difference between apostille and certified translation?
An apostille verifies the authenticity of a document, while a certified translation ensures the content is readable.
Can you translate the apostille certificate too?
Yes, we can include the translation of the apostille certificate if required.
What must a certified translation include?
A certified translation must include a complete translation of all visible text, a signed Certificate of Accuracy, and the translator’s full name, contact details, and date. This is the standard required by the Home Office, UKVI, courts, and most official bodies.
Can I send a phone photo instead of a scanned PDF?

Yes. A clear photo is fine. We’ll confirm whether it’s readable and advise if a better image is needed for any page before we start. Scan quality can affect whether same-day delivery is feasible.

How much does a certified translation cost?
Pricing depends on document length, language pair, and turnaround. Short standard documents are typically priced per page. Send your file for a fast quote — we confirm price and turnaround before any work begins.
Is my document kept confidential?
Yes. Your documents are handled securely and only shared with the linguists and reviewers needed to complete your translation project.
