When Translation Is Needed
Foreign mortgage evidence needs to be easy to review
If financial or property documents supporting your mortgage are written in another language, the lender, broker, solicitor or conveyancer may ask for an English translation before the information can be assessed.
The exact requirement depends on the organisation receiving the documents. Tell us where the translation will be submitted and send the complete files so the required scope and certification can be checked before work begins.

Mortgage Documents We Translate
Financial evidence, property paperwork and supporting documents
Mortgage applications often involve more than one document. Sending the complete set at the outset makes it easier to keep names, dates, figures and terminology consistent throughout the translated pack.
Banking & Savings
Bank statements, savings evidence and financial records used during affordability, deposit or source-of-funds checks.
Tax & Earnings Records
Tax returns and related records used to support declared earnings or financial circumstances.
Deposit Evidence
Gifted-deposit letters, supporting statements and documents relating to the origin of funds.
Property Documents
Property deeds, purchase agreements, mortgage deeds and related legal or transactional paperwork.
Existing Borrowing
Loan documents, credit-related paperwork and other evidence relevant to existing financial commitments.
A payslip is one of the documents you need translated? See our payslip translation service. For broader requirements, view our document translation services.
Common Use Cases
Who uses mortgage document translation?
The service is designed around the actual paperwork involved in financing and purchasing property, rather than generic document translation.
- Borrowers applying for a UK mortgage using documents issued overseas.
- Overseas buyers purchasing residential or investment property in the UK.
- Clients remortgaging while relying on foreign-language financial evidence.
- Mortgage brokers compiling supporting evidence for an application.
- Solicitors or conveyancers reviewing foreign-language property or financial documents.
If your documents are already in English, or the receiving organisation does not require a certified translation, check its requirements before ordering.
What Your Translation Includes
Clear formatting and certification for formal review
Mortgage documents contain figures, account information, reference numbers and legal wording that need to remain easy to compare with the original.
We prepare the translated version so the receiving professional can cross-reference the content clearly. Where certified translation is required, the completed file includes the appropriate certification statement.
-
01
All visible content translated
Legible text, stamps, seals, annotations and handwritten notes are handled as part of the document rather than silently omitted.
-
02
Certification statement
Certified translations include a signed statement confirming that the translation is a true and complete representation of the original.
-
03
Translator details
Relevant translator details, signature, contact information and date are included with the certification.
-
04
Formatting aligned with the source
Headings, tables, fields, figures and document structure are presented clearly so the translation can be checked against the original.
-
05
Pre-start document check
File quality, missing pages, certification requirements, price and expected turnaround are reviewed before the work begins.
How It Works
A straightforward mortgage translation process
Send the complete documents first so we can assess the language pair, amount of content, file quality, certification and deadline before translation starts.
01
Send your documents
Upload clear scans, PDFs or readable photographs of every page that needs to be reviewed.
02
Confirm the requirement
Tell us the language pair, deadline and whether the file is for a lender, broker, solicitor or another recipient.
03
Translation & checks
The content is translated and checked for completeness, names, dates, numbers, terminology, stamps and formatting.
04
Receive the completed file
Your certified translation is supplied in the agreed format. A printed hard copy can be requested where required.
For Individuals & Professionals
Mortgage paperwork viewed from the recipient’s side
A useful mortgage translation needs to make the financial and legal information easier to review, not simply replace one language with another.
For borrowers
Keep the translated documents organised as a consistent application pack when your income, savings, deposit or property evidence was issued abroad.
For mortgage brokers
Supply translated supporting evidence that can be read alongside the original documents during the mortgage application process.
For solicitors & conveyancers
Translate relevant property, financial and legal paperwork while preserving names, dates, references and document structure for easier cross-checking.
Price & Turnaround
Know the cost before translation begins
The final price depends on the language pair, number and length of documents, complexity, formatting, file quality, certification and requested turnaround.
Mortgage packs can range from a single supporting document to several months of financial evidence, so sending every relevant page at the beginning allows the work to be assessed properly.
Urgent turnaround options may be available depending on the document set and language pair. State your actual deadline when requesting the quote.
What to Send Us
Send complete, readable documents wherever possible
Good source files reduce uncertainty and help avoid delays caused by unreadable figures, missing pages or incomplete supporting evidence.
- A clear scan, PDF or photograph of every relevant page.
- The language of the original document.
- The language you need the translation in.
- The lender, broker, solicitor or organisation receiving it.
- Your required deadline.
- Any spelling requirements for names or places.
- Whether you need an emailed PDF or a printed hard copy.
A clear phone photograph can be suitable. If any text, stamp, number or page is difficult to read, we may ask for a better image before confirming the work.

Mortgage Translation FAQs
Questions about translating documents for a mortgage
Requirements can vary between lenders and other organisations, so confirm any unusual certification or formatting instruction with the recipient before submitting the translation.
Do I need certified mortgage document translation in the UK?
If documents supporting your mortgage are not in English, the lender or another professional reviewing the application may ask for a certified English translation. Check the recipient's current requirements if you are unsure.
Which mortgage documents can you translate?
Common examples include bank statements, payslips, tax returns, employment letters, gifted-deposit letters, mortgage deeds, property deeds, purchase agreements and documents relating to existing loans or credit commitments.
Will my lender accept the certified translation?
Each lender or receiving organisation can set its own requirements. Tell us where the document will be submitted so the certification requirement can be considered, and confirm any lender-specific instruction with the recipient before ordering.
Do all transactions on a bank statement need translating?
If the lender has asked for the full statement, the safest approach is normally to provide the complete document so all visible information can be translated. If the lender specifically requires only selected information, confirm that scope with them before the translation begins.
Can I send a phone photo instead of a scanned PDF?
Yes, provided the photograph is clear enough to read all relevant text, figures, stamps and annotations. We can advise if a clearer image is needed after reviewing it.
How long does mortgage document translation take?
Turnaround depends on the language pair, number of pages, complexity, formatting and file quality. Urgent options may be available. Your expected turnaround is confirmed before work begins.
How much does certified mortgage translation cost?
Certified translation pricing starts from £40 for standard documents. The exact price depends on the document set, language pair, complexity, formatting and required turnaround. Send the complete files for an exact quote.
Is my financial information kept confidential?
Mortgage and financial documents are handled confidentially and shared only with the linguists and reviewers required to complete the translation project.
