Sworn translations

 Do you need a sworn translation of a foreign document for the Czech authorities? Or do you need a sworn translation of Czech documents to submit to authorities abroad? Then you’ve come to the right place.

Our team includes 6 sworn translators

Mastery of a language is not enough for sworn translations. Such translations can only be done by experienced translators appointed by the Ministry of Justice. Their job is not just to translate the text, but to bind the translated document to the original and affix their official seal. There are six sworn translators in our team.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do I need a notarised copy?

If you wish to keep the original document, you can give us a notarised copy. This is because the document you send us to be translated must be bound with the translated document, the sworn translator’s clause and an official seal. If you give us the original, it will be permanently bound with the translation. We recommend obtaining a notarised copy of certain important documents (such as your birth certificate, trade license etc.) so you can keep the originals. But don’t worry, we will be happy to arrange a notarised copy for you.

A sworn translation is available in print and now also in electronic form.
