Certified Translation in Ireland

Certified translation in Ireland is a full translation of your document with a signed statement from the translator confirming that it is accurate, the date and the translator’s name and contact details. It is what Immigration Service Delivery, the Irish embassies, the courts, universities and banks ask for when a document is not in English or Irish.

One translation for registration, residence and marriage

• Statement of accuracy signed and dated, with the translator’s name and contact details
• Notarisation by a notary public included, at no extra cost
• Free revisions for 60 days after delivery

Our certificate covers every point

Every certified translation we deliver for Ireland includes the first five points, so it serves your registration and Irish Residence Permit (IRP), residence as the family member of an EU citizen, the marriage notification, citizenship, the courts and universities. For citizenship, you upload our translation with a copy of the original document; certifying that copy is done by a solicitor or notary, not by the translator. One case asks for more: a visa applied for from outside Ireland needs the apostille. Tell us before you order and we will confirm what we can provide.

Certified, notarised, sworn or apostilled?

Certified translation: the translator signs the statement of accuracy. It is the standard for immigration, the Civil Registration Service and most universities and employers.

Notarised translation: a notary public confirms who signed the statement. Our statement is signed before a notary public in Florida, USA, at no extra cost (see notarised translation). If an Irish organisation asks for a notary or a solicitor in Ireland, check with them before you order.

Sworn and apostilled translation: Ireland has no sworn translators. An apostille on an Irish public document is issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs, for use abroad. For a visa applied for from outside Ireland, the apostille goes on the translation itself, in the country where it was made.
