A certified or official translation is a translation done by a certified translator.

​

In the US, the ATA (American Translators Association) is the organization that tests translators to make sure they are qualified and capable of providing accurate translations.

​​

​Certified translations come with a statement (a letter of accuracy) from the translator certifying that the translation is true and accurate.

​

In general, universities, government agencies, immigration services, and other official organizations only accept translations from certified translators.

​

Your translation will be formatted to look as close as possible to the original, and come with an accompanying letter of accuracy stating that it is a true, accurate and complete translation of the original document, along with my seal as certified translator.
