The translation of an identity card may be required for administrative, banking, business and other procedures in which a translation of an identification document is required.
When is a translation required?
An identity card is translated when a body, employer, bank or other institution needs to understand the personal data, address or other data listed on the document. The translation does not replace the identity card nor is it a proof of its validity.
What to send for translation?
Please send clear photos of the front and back. It is important that all data, dates, marks and edges of the document are visible. Please specify the target language and purpose of use in the query.

Certification of the court interpreter, Apostille and deadline
Certified translation, Apostille and possible recognition of the document are separate steps. The institution to which you submit the document determines what is required. If a certified translation is required, the document is translated and certified by an appropriate court interpreter. Shorter documents can sometimes be completed the same day, depending on language, scope and availability.
Information before ordering
Does the document need to be certified?
It depends on the request of the institution receiving the document; specify the purpose of the translation in the query.
Can I send a photo with my mobile phone?
Yes, if all information, edges of the document, stamps and back are clearly visible.
Can the translation be completed urgently?
For shorter documents, we can often confirm an urgent or same-day deadline after reviewing the document.
Both sides of the document and clear information
The identity card can have information on the front and back. For a complete translation, send both sides without cutting the edges, together with any documents submitted in the same procedure.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to send both sides?
