Have you ever been in a position as a foreigner in another or had a relative or friend who needed to have their documents translated and certified? Maybe you have or haven't, but for those that have needed a certified translation service, hiring the right translator or translation agency is crucial in achieving your objectives and reducing stress when it comes to medical, legal, or other personal matters. A translation can be certified by a translator or translation company who are members of the ATA (American translator's Association with a stamp, or any translator can have a translation notarized by a notary public to make a translation official and authenticated. However a notary public can not certify his or hers translation and the notary must be done by a third party. Some translation companies may certify translations with a company stamp or seal, which shows great credibility when clients and individuals have to submit their documents to various government agencies.

It is important to pick a translator or translation company who has great reviews and credibility in the industry and sometimes paying more for a certified translation with a reputable firm can save more time and hassle as if a translation is not done in a competent fashion it can get rejected by government agencies and cause stressful delays to the customer.
