The Art of Translation

Translation is one very complex art and process. You have to consider the number of languages to translate to (or from). You also have to consider the methodologies, the cultural study that goes hand in hand with translation, and understanding of other factors of the document that you need to translate such as the topic itself.

 

Certified Translation Explained

You use certified translation for official documents. A document maybe considered an official translation if it has one of the following characteristics:

1) A “sworn translator” completed the translation of the document.

Most countries have a governing body or an organization who provide registration or accreditation so that a translator can be a “sworn translator”. This way, the translator is recognized by courts of law or other government facilities. A “sworn translator” then can produce translated documents and legalize  them. You then call these documents “certified translations” It is important to note, however, that there is no “sworn translator” in the UK, as there is no organization that can provide accreditation for a translator to actually legalize documents.

2) The translator or the translation company will provide certification of the translated document.

Clients can request for the translator or the translation company to declare or authorize that the document is certified to be ‘true and accurate translation of the original” and to declare that the translator is a professional in this field. There is no recognized process in the UK to do this, so technically, any translator can certify their documents. It is always best though to request the translator to include his or her qualifications and accreditation in the certification.

Translation the UK does not officially regulate translation so any translator can claim any document to be an accurate translation. However, since you need to consider quality , you should put in extra effort and be more thorough in your search for translators. Make sure you do a background check on the translators qualifications and credentials. It is best if freelance translators are members of Institute of Linguists or the Institute of Translators and Interpreters. This may seem bothersome but, in the long run, your efforts will be repaid by the quality translations you receive.

3) Certification from of a solicitor

This is basically certification from #2, but is signed in front of a notary public or a solicitor. The notary public or solicitor will sign and seal the document. The solicitor will not understand the document you have chosen to translate or check the qualifications of the translator therefore so you will have to do this yourself.
