Certified Translation

A certified translation refers to a translation that has been officially authenticated by a legally certified translator. This type of translation is required for legal contexts such as judicial actions, so that it is deemed valid and official by the relevant authorities.

A certified translator legally swears to a notary public or judicial body that a translation is accurate to the original text and signs the translation to make it legally binding. It is worth noting that certified translations are different from unofficial translations, as both have a unique purpose and specific legal validity.
