Which Translation Service Do You Need?
Not every document needs the same level of preparation. Start with the intended use of the translation rather than choosing a service from the name alone.
01
Standard professional translation
Suitable when you need clear professional translation but the receiving organisation has not requested formal certification.
02
Certified translation
Typically used when a translation needs a signed declaration confirming that it accurately represents the original document.
03
Legal or official document translation
Appropriate for legal, administrative and formal paperwork where specialist terminology, document structure and complete details matter.
04
Urgent translation
Choose this when a submission deadline is close. Send the full file, exact deadline and intended use so the earliest realistic turnaround can be assessed.

How it works
A Clear Process From Document Review to Delivery
Send the complete document first. The document type, language pair, complexity and requested turnaround can then be reviewed before work begins.
Send your documents
Upload clear scans or digital files and include the source language, required target language, deadline and intended use.
Receive your quote
Your documents are reviewed so the price, turnaround and relevant requirements can be confirmed before translation begins.
Translation & checks
A professional linguist translates the content, with attention to names, dates, numbers, terminology, formatting and completeness.
Delivery & support
The completed translation is supplied in the agreed format, with certification included where required for the service ordered.
Prepare your request
What to Send for an Accurate Quote
Complete, readable documents make it easier to assess the scope correctly and reduce unnecessary questions after translation has started.
- A clear scan or photograph of every page to be translated
- The language of the original document
- The language required for the translation
- The organisation or authority receiving the document, where relevant
- Your preferred delivery date or exact urgent deadline
- Any required spelling for names and places
- Any known certification or delivery requirements
If the receiving organisation has provided specific instructions,
include them with your files. The receiving organisation should make
the final decision on the type of translation or certification it accepts.
Before you order
Clear Files Help Keep the Process Moving
Missing pages, cropped edges, faint text and unclear stamps can create avoidable questions. Send the complete document set at the outset, particularly when your deadline is close.
If several documents form part of the same application or transaction, sending them together also provides useful context for names, terminology and recurring information.
