Yashvi Translation provides professional sworn translation services for personal, academic, immigration, legal and corporate documents. Depending on the destination country and receiving authority, documents are translated by appropriately authorized, sworn, court-approved or officially recognized translators.

- Embassies and consulates

- Universities and educational bodies
- Civil registries
- Government departments
- Professional licensing authorities
- Corporate and commercial registries
Before assigning a project, our team reviews the destination country, receiving authority, document type, language combination and intended purpose.
Important: Translator authorization, certification, apostille and legalization requirements vary by country and procedure. Final acceptance remains subject to the receiving authority’s independent review.
What Is a Sworn Translation?
A sworn translation is a translation certified by a translator who is authorized under the legal or administrative system of the relevant jurisdiction.
The professional title and authorization process differ between countries. Common examples include:
- Spain: Traductor-Intérprete Jurado
- France: Traducteur agréé or traducteur assermenté
- Germany: Beeidigter or ermächtigter Übersetzer
- Poland: Tłumacz przysięgły
- Netherlands: Beëdigd vertaler
Depending on the applicable procedure, a sworn translation may contain:
- A translator’s certification statement
- The translator’s signature
- An official stamp or seal
- Authorization or registration details
- A reference connecting the translation to the source document
- Translation of visible stamps, seals and handwritten entries
A sworn translation does not validate or replace the original document. It provides a formally certified translation for submission to the specified authority.
When Is a Sworn Translation Required?
A sworn translation may be required when a foreign-language document is submitted for an official, legal or administrative purpose.
| Purpose | Common Documents |
| Immigration and visas | Birth certificates, marriage certificates, police clearance certificates, academic and employment records |
| University admission | Degrees, diplomas, transcripts, mark sheets and school certificates |
| Civil registration | Birth, marriage, divorce, adoption, death and name-change records |
| Legal proceedings | Court orders, judgments, affidavits, contracts and powers of attorney |
| Professional recognition | Degrees, professional licences, experience certificates and training records |
| Corporate procedures | Incorporation documents, agreements, financial statements and regulatory records |
The receiving authority’s instructions should always be checked before translation begins.

🔹Names and spellings

Sample
Standard, Certified and Sworn Translation
The correct translation type depends on the receiving authority and intended purpose.
| Standard Translation | Certified Translation | Sworn Translation |
| Used mainly for general or informational purposes | Includes a signed declaration confirming translation accuracy | Prepared by a translator authorized under the applicable jurisdiction |
| Normally has no formal certification | Commonly requested in the USA, Canada and the UK | Commonly required in countries with formal sworn-translator systems |
| Not normally intended for legal submission | Acceptance depends on the receiving authority | Acceptance depends on translator authorization and authority requirements |
| Suitable for websites, correspondence and internal records | Often used for immigration, academic and administrative submissions | Frequently used for courts, civil registries and government procedures |
A certified translation should not be submitted where the authority specifically requests a sworn translation. Similarly, a sworn translation prepared for one jurisdiction may not automatically satisfy the requirements of another.
Unsure Which Service Is Required?
Send us the document, destination country and name of the receiving authority. Our team will review the available information and explain the most appropriate translation and document-processing route.
Sworn Translation for Immigration & Visa Applications
Immigration authorities worldwide rely on document verification to assess eligibility, identity, family relationships, educational qualifications, and legal history.
| Student Visa Applications | Work Visa Applications | Permanent Residency Applications | Citizenship Applications | Family Reunification |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Students applying abroad frequently require sworn translations of: • Academic Transcripts • Degree Certificates • Diplomas • Birth Certificates • Financial Documents | Professional immigration programs often request: • Employment Letters • Educational Qualifications • Police Clearance Certificates • Identity Documents | PR programs commonly require: • Birth Certificates • Marriage Certificates • Family Documentation • Civil Status Records | Citizenship applications frequently involve: • Civil Records • Criminal Background Documents • Identity Documentation • Family Relationship Evidence | Sworn translation supports: • Marriage Documentation • Birth Records • Relationship Evidence • Custody Documents |
Using a legally recognized translation significantly reduces the risk of immigration delays caused by document deficiencies.
Need Help Identifying the Correct Requirement?
Translation requirements can differ between authorities within the same country.
An embassy, university, court, immigration office and professional licensing body may each apply different rules regarding:
| Translator Authorization | Certification Wording | Original Signatures |
| Physical Stamps or Seals | Digital Signatures | Apostille |
| Legalization | Notarization | Submission Format |
| Physical or Electronic Delivery | — | — |
Before beginning the project, we review the intended destination, authority and document purpose.
For procedures involving apostille and sworn translation, applicants should also confirm whether the apostille must be obtained before the document is translated.
