What is a Certified Translation?

Legal or certified translations differ from private ones in that the former are made by Certified Translators, who, with their signature, certify that it is a true translation, assuming legal and even criminal responsibility for their work. Certified Translators have a University degree, and they specialize in legal and commercial subjects.

When is a Certified Translator required?

When filing a public document before any Authority requiring it.

What are public documents??

Any document legally certifying something. For example: personal documents (certificates and entries of the Registry of Civil Status, passports, diplomas), deeds, wills, agreements, commercial papers, orders and decrees, powers of attorney, analytical certificates, certain technical documents and studies, patents.

When is it necessary to legalize a Certified Translation?

In order for a public document to be valid in the country it must comply with a series of pertinent legalizations. As a last step, the document should bear the legalization of the foreign embassy in the country of origin (in this case it must be filed with the Foreign Office), or, if the foreign country has signed the Hague Convention, the Apostille.
