About our languages

Certified Translation Across a Wide Range of Languages

Translation support is available for documents that need to be used officially in the UK and abroad. This includes personal certificates, academic records, legal papers, immigration evidence and company documents.

The correct service starts with a clearly identified language pair. The source language is the language used in the original document. The target language is the language into which the document must be translated.

Some documents contain more than one language, scripts that require transliteration or handwritten notes in a different language. Include the complete document so these details can be reviewed before translation begins.

Choosing your language pair

What Are the Source and Target Languages?

The source language is the language appearing in the original document. The target language is the language into which it must be translated.

Avoid describing the request only as “a Spanish translation” or “an Arabic translation.” State the complete direction, such as Spanish to English or English to Spanish, together with the country and authority receiving the document.

When one document contains several languages, send the complete file and identify any sections that the receiving authority has specifically asked to be translated.

Source language Spanish
Target language English

Also include the document type, receiving organisation, intended use and deadline when requesting your quote.

Language-specific details

Information That Helps Keep the Translation Consistent

Different languages can use different scripts, name orders, date formats and official-document conventions. Supply supporting information where consistency matters.

Ask About Your Document

Names and transliteration

Names written in another script can have more than one valid English spelling. Supply a passport or preferred spelling reference when consistency is important.

Language variants

State the country or regional variant where it affects the wording, script or terminology required by the receiving organisation.

Stamps, seals and handwritten entries

Include clear views of official markings and notes, even when they use a language or script different from the main document.

Dates and number formats

Date order, decimal marks, numbering systems and calendars can differ between languages and countries. The document context should remain clear.

Receiving-authority instructions

Send any required terminology, template or certification wording supplied by the authority, university, court, employer or other organisation.

How many translation languages are supported?

The website states that more than 100 languages are supported. The exact language pair should still be confirmed by sending the document, source language, target language and intended use.

Which languages are available for certified translation?

The current page specifically lists Spanish, French, Italian, German, Portuguese, Romanian, Polish, Arabic, Urdu, Hindi, Bengali, Chinese and Turkish. It also confirms broader support for European, Asian, African and Middle Eastern languages.

What is a source language?

The source language is the language used in the original document. For example, when a Spanish birth certificate must be translated into English, Spanish is the source language.

What is a target language?

The target language is the language required in the completed translation. State the complete direction of translation rather than naming only one language.

Can documents be translated for immigration use?

The website provides language support for immigration documents as well as personal certificates, identity records, academic documents, legal papers and business files. Include the application route and receiving authority when requesting the translation.

What should I send to confirm a language pair?

Send a clear and complete document together with the source language, required target language, receiving organisation, destination country, deadline and any written certification instructions.

What if my document contains more than one language?

Send the complete document and identify every language you recognise. The file can then be reviewed to confirm which sections require translation and whether more than one language combination is involved.

Can names be matched to the spelling in my passport?

A passport or preferred spelling reference can be supplied when a name written in another script has more than one possible English transliteration.

Can I send a photograph of my document?

A clear, complete and readable photograph may be suitable for initial review. Keep every page, corner, stamp, seal and handwritten entry visible.

Where can I view the supported document types?

Visit the document translation page for information about civil certificates, identity documents, academic records, legal papers and other commonly requested documents.
