FAQ – Frequently Asked Questions | TDocument

1. What is a sworn translation, and when is it necessary?

A sworn translation is a translation performed by a translator certified by a judicial authority. This type of translation is often required for official documents such as birth certificates, diplomas, contracts, etc. A sworn translation holds legal value and is recognized by institutions.

A sworn translation is necessary when official documents need to be presented to authorities in a foreign language. This includes legal and administrative procedures, such as naturalization applications, residency, work permits, as well as the registration of birth, marriage, or death certificates. It is also required for education (foreign enrollment, diploma recognition), business (company creation, international contracts), family matters (adoption, inheritance), and judicial procedures (evidence, testimonies).
