Secure handling with strict confidentiality.
Certified vs Notarized: what’s the difference?
Certified translation is required by USCIS: a complete English translation accompanied by a signed statement that it’s accurate and complete and that the translator is competent. USCIS does not require notarisation; if an agency asks for it, the notary verifies the identity of the person signing the certification — not the translation itself.
When do I need notarisation?
Some receiving bodies (e.g., consulates, courts, universities) and many apostille processes ask for the translator’s certification to be notarised. If you need to use your notarised document abroad, we can guide you on obtaining an apostille from the appropriate authority.

When an apostille is needed

FAQs
Do I need a notarized or just a certified translation for USCIS?
For USCIS filings, a certified translation is required; notarisation is generally not required by USCIS. Some other institutions may ask for notarisation.
What exactly does the notary do?
The notary verifies the identity of the person signing the translator’s certificate and witnesses the signature. The notary does not certify the translation quality.
Can you help with apostille after notarisation?
Yes. We’ll guide you on obtaining an apostille (for Hague countries) or an authentication (for non-Hague countries) from the right authority.
Can I visit a retail notary to get my translation notarised?
Retail notaries (e.g., shipping centres) provide notary services but typically don’t produce translations; you need a translator’s signed certificate first, which the notary can then notarise.
Do you offer same-day notarized translation?
For short documents, yes. Upload your file and choose Express; we’ll confirm feasibility and timing immediately.
