FAQ
Are there special procedures for certified and notarized translations ?
Certified translations:
Your source text should be sent to us by registered mail. If you don’t want to send your original by mail, inquire if you can send us a copy of the document. However, please do keep in mind that you will always have to submit our certified translation together with the original to the relevant office that requires the certification.
Notarized Translations:
In order to notarize a copy of our translation, the notary public has to see the original of the document, as well as the photocopy. The notary public will declare that the document is a true photocopy of the original. Usually an affidavit will go hand in hand with the notarization, in which the translator of the document declares that he/she translated the source document to the best of his/her knowledge.
We recommend that you collect all the necessary details on the preferred method from the relevant office before getting your document certified or notarized by us. Hand-written parts in the text may very well be illegible. As our translators can’t give their own interpretation to the text, we have to note the illegibility in your document (i.e. [illegible signature] or [illegible hand-written text]).
Will my information remain confidential ?
We pledge to keep our customers’ translation material confidential and shall not publicize the same or release it to any third party without the customers’ prior written consent. All of our translators and interpreters are bound to maintain strict confidentiality in all projects. If you have a confidentiality agreement you require, we will, of course, be happy to sign that as well.
What kind of precautions do you take against computer viruses ?
All files coming in and going out are scanned with virus protection programs. We constantly keep them up to date with the latest virus data files.
What is the best file transfer method for large documents ?
We work with a wide range of file formats, including the standard Microsoft Office formats. If the file is large, you can compress the file using WinZip or similar programs.
