When submitting translated documents, have you come across the term \u2018certified translation\u2019 but are unsure about exactly what it means? Don\u2019t worry! You can find out below why you are being asked to provide a certified translation and why SemioticTransfer is the perfect partner for you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s start at the beginning: what is a certified translation?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A certified translation is a legally valid translation of the original document with identical content. The translation is carried out by qualified professional translators before being certified by a notary. This type of document is important when dealing with authorities and government departments, to make sure you don\u2019t have any issues having it recognised.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Below is a selection of documents of which you can obtain a certified translation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Diplomas<\/td>\nPassports, visa certificates<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Birth documentation<\/td>\nPatents, patent specifications<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Marriage certificates<\/td>\nEducation and training certificates<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
CVs, job references<\/td>\nContracts, commercial register excerpts<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Divorce certificates<\/td>\nResidence certificates<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
Migration papers<\/td>\netc.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

How much does a certified translation cost?<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

There is no set price for a certified translation. The cost will depend on the volume of text, the nature of the document and whether or not an apostille is required. We calculate the price based on the number of words. The minimal price for one page certified by a notary is CHF 180 (excluding VAT at 7.7%). You can use our price calculator to work out the exact cost \u2013 it takes only a minute \u2013 and place your order straight away.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Apostilles \u2013 when certification is not enough<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Do you want to take that extra step to make absolutely certain that your certified translation will be recognised? What you need is an apostille, which costs CHF 95 (excluding VAT at 7.7%) from us. It is a sort of additional authentication and is even a requirement for some foreign authorities. The authority responsible for your document will tell you whether or not an apostille is required. It can provide information about exactly which sort of translation you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Translations are a matter of trust<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

As part of any translation, whether certified or not, the translation company will gain access to sensitive data. It is therefore very important that you work with a translation partner that you can trust. SemioticTransfer handles all your requests and documents with the utmost discretion. For your security, all data is hosted in Switzerland by an ISO 27001-certified IT partner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
