Sworn translations for individuals<\/h2>\n

Individuals can require sworn translations when they need to <\/span>provide official documents in a foreign language<\/span>. No matter the reason for finding a sworn translator, his or her work goes beyond translating from one language to another.<\/span><\/p>\n

Indeed, sworn translators must make sure that the translated document exactly reflects the contents of the original document to the slightest detail: images, signatures, stamps, footnotes and even words possibly crossed out.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks to this accurate reproduction of the original document, the translated document is given official recognition in the destination country. Also, sworn or certified translators place a stamp (apostille) on every page which <\/span>allows<\/span>authorities to identify and certify the translation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Why might individuals require sworn translations?<\/h3>\n

There are many situations where having a document translated by a certified translator might be necessary. For example, when getting <\/span>married abroad<\/span>, translating a birth certificate or identity papers will be necessary. A <\/span>French student<\/span> may also need to provide a <\/span>French transcript or diploma to obtain transfer credits in another country and satisfy the requirements of a registration form in a foreign university.<\/span><\/p>\n

Immigration procedures<\/span> to come and live in France (or for a French person to live abroad) may also require translating divorce certificates, criminal records or legal cases.<\/span><\/p>\n
