Translation Certification Services: UK & Italy

Submitting translated documents to official bodies often requires certification to verify their accuracy. At Translate Fast Ltd, we provide a range of certification options tailored to meet specific requirements, particularly for authorities in the United Kingdom and Italy.

Choosing the correct type of certification is crucial for acceptance. Below are the options we offer:

1. Sworn Translation – Certified by an Official Translator in an Italian Court (Asseverazione)

• What it is: This is the highest level of certification within the Italian legal system, known as ‘asseverazione’. The translation is completed by a translator officially registered with an Italian court (‘traduttore giurato’). The translator personally attends the Italian court, presents the original document and the translation, and takes a formal oath before a court official, attesting to the translation’s accuracy. The documentation is then stamped and recorded by the court.
• Primary Use: Required for significant official and legal processes within Italy.
• Accepted By: Italian courts, government offices, and institutions requiring a formally sworn translation under Italian law (e.g., citizenship applications, residency, marriage (incl. certificate of no impediment), high-value contracts, incorporation).
• Choose This If: You need a translation for official use directly within the Italian system and have been specifically requested to provide a ‘traduzione giurata’ or ‘asseverata’. While this procedure must be executed directly within Italy, we manage the entire process seamlessly from start to finish.

2. Standard UK Certified Translation

• What it is: Your translated document is accompanied by a formal statement (Certificate of Accuracy) issued and signed by Translate Fast Ltd on our letterhead. This statement attests that the translation is true and accurate to the best of our knowledge, completed by a qualified professional translator.
• Primary Use: For general official purposes within the United Kingdom.
• Widely Accepted By: UK government departments (including the Home Office), NARIC (now UK ENIC), universities, employers, banks, mortgage providers and other institutions across the UK.
• Choose This If: You need a translation for official use in the UK and haven’t been given more specific certification instructions (like a Statement of Truth or notarisation).

3. English to Italian Translation with Notarisation & UK Apostille

• What it is: This multi-step process is for documents originating in the UK that need to be recognised as official in Italy.
  1. We translate your document from English to Italian.
  2. The translation (or translator’s declaration) is certified by a UK Notary Public.
  3. The Notary’s signature and seal are then legalised by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO) via an Apostille certificate. The Apostille confirms the authenticity of the Notary’s signature for international use under the Hague Convention.
• Primary Use: Submitting UK-issued documents (e.g., birth certificates, legal papers, academic records) to official authorities in Italy.
• Accepted By: Various Italian public bodies, institutions, and legal entities when dealing with official matters requiring authenticated UK documents.
• Choose This If: You need to use a UK document officially in Italy and have been instructed to get it notarised and legalised (Apostilled).

Not Sure Which Certification You Need?

The requirements for translation certification can be complex and vary depending on the specific authority and country involved. We strongly recommend checking the exact requirements with the institution requesting the translation.
