Certified and notarized translations serve different purposes, and the type you need depends on the requirements of the receiving agency, institution, or organization.

 

Certified Translation Services

A certified translation includes a signed statement attesting to the accuracy and completeness of the translation. Certified translations are commonly used for immigration applications, academic records, legal documents, and other official purposes. Silver Bay Translations provides certified document translation services for clients throughout the United States.

 

Notarized Translation Services

A notarized translation involves a notary public notarizing the relevant signature or declaration associated with the translation. Notarization does not independently verify the accuracy of the translated content. It may be required by certain institutions or for specific document submissions.

 

Notarization is available when needed, depending on your requirements. Before ordering, check whether the receiving agency or institution requires a certified translation, notarization, or both.
