Any questions?

It is best to clarify with the authorities of your destination country what type of certification you need for your documents. As a rule, official documents require notarisation. For countries that are part of the Hague Agreement, an apostille is also required; for countries that are not part of the Hague Agreement, you also need legalisation.

Depending on the complexity and subject area of the text, experienced translators complete around eight standard pages a day. That’s about 240 standard lines or 2,400 words.

For faster delivery, a text can be distributed among two or more language professionals. The use of machine translation can also be considered on request; in this case, post-editing by language professionals may be required depending on the requirements and purpose of the translation.

Express deliveries are possible around the clock, 365 days a year.

Yes, we rely exclusively on native-speaking professionals for all our services, whether for translation, copywriting or interpreting.
