Certified Translation

A certified translation, also known as legalized, sworn, notarized, official, or public translation, must be done by a translator registered and licensed by an official Translator’s Association. The association will verify the translator’s seal and signature and make sure that the document follows all guidelines regarding formality. A certified translation holds the same legal standing as the original document.

I am registered with the Sworn Translators Association of the City of Buenos Aires (Colegio de Traductores de la Ciudad de Buenos Aires) and have my digital signature available to expedite the process.

Any document can require a certified translation. Here are some examples of documents I have translated:

• Birth certificates for citizenship applications.

• Syllabus and programs to continue studies abroad.

• Diplomas and transcripts to request validation (homologation) abroad.

• Death certificates and wills to initiate probate and succession proceedings.

• Powers of attorney to demonstrate power over an estate or individual.

• Income certificates for visa, residency, or citizenship applications.

• Marriage certificates to register the union abroad.

• Court orders for divorce, alimony, child support and custody.

• Disability certificates to request benefits in another country.

• Medical history to be transferred and continue treatment abroad.

• Employment contracts to demonstrate the employment relationship.

• Travel authorizations for minors travelling abroad without both parents.

• Vaccination certificates to present to health authorities.

How much does this service cost?

The Sworn Translators Association made the minimum suggested rate for certified translations available here. However, these are tentative and should be considered part of my professional transparency, not as a definite service quote.
