Notarized translations

Tulkojumu Fabrika provides a notarized translation service that meets the requirements of legislation and international practice

A notarized translation is an official translation signed by a qualified translator and certified by a notary. The notary confirms the authenticity of the translator’s signature and the conformity of the original, and the translator bears administrative and criminal liability for the accuracy of the translation.

When a notarized translation is required:

    • for submission to government agencies, courts and educational institutions;
    • to confirm the legitimacy of personal and legal documents;
    • when applying for visas, citizenship, marriage registration abroad and other legal procedures.

Apostille for international use of documents

If a document issued in Latvia is intended for use abroad, we also provide the apostille service. Apostille is a simplified form of document legalization that is recognized in countries that have joined the Hague Convention of 1961.

Among the documents subject to apostille:

    • legal documents;
    • diplomas and certificates;
    • birth, marriage, death certificates;
    • certificates of no criminal record;
    • powers of attorney and other public documents.

Electronic notarization and apostille 

Modern technologies allow for notarization and apostille not only in paper form, but also in electronic form. The electronic signature system provides full legal force and ease of execution remotely – without the need for a personal visit. This is especially relevant for customers located abroad or who value efficiency.

FAQ

How much does translation cost?

The price depends on the number of characters/words, language combination, with/without translator/notary certification, with/without legalization/apostille, and other factors. Send us your text/documents, and we’ll calculate the translation cost and turnaround time. Receiving a translation estimate is free and does not obligate you to work with us.

How quickly will I receive my transfer?

The order completion time is agreed upon before work begins. On average, a standard document with notarization of up to 3,000 characters/500 words is translated within one full business day, while documents up to 6,000 characters/1,000 words take at least two business days. We can also provide urgent translations if needed.

What texts can you translate?

We translate texts of any specification, preserving the original formatting if desired, and accept documents in virtually any electronic format. If necessary, we localize/adapt texts into the target language, taking into account the client’s requirements.

What is Document Legalization?

Legalization of documents means certifying the authenticity of the signature of the official signing the document and the seal of the issuing institution, so that public documents drawn up in one state acquire legal force in another. This function is performed by foreign affairs services and consular officers of diplomatic missions.

Do you issue Apostille?

Yes, we provide the service of Legalization and Apostille on the translation or original document upon request.
