Separate translator qualification requirements from requirements for a translation certificate, notarization or an apostille.
Check the required qualification or provider
Ask the recipient which credential, register or translation service it accepts. France's official guidance explains court-listed approved translators in France and how to seek information abroad. Australian visa and NSW licence procedures have different requirements.
Our incorporation and membership of the Japan Translation Federation are company information, not evidence of compliance with a foreign translator qualification. Having “Translation” in a company name is not an acceptance criterion.
Check certification separately
A translation certificate is a translator's or company's statement about a translation. Confirm the required signature, contact details, qualifications and delivery format. Notarization or an apostille does not necessarily substitute for a required translator credential.
How to request a quote
Send the official instruction or request letter, document images, deadline and required format. Where a specific credential or provider is required, we check whether we can meet it; requirements we cannot meet are outside our service. Where authentication is also needed, we confirm the document and procedure before quoting.
