Companies House document translation  

A certified Companies House document translation is an official translation of any document filed at or issued by Companies House, accompanied by a signed statement confirming the translation is true and accurate. At Absolute Translations we translate and certify the full range of Companies House documents, from certificates of incorporation and good standing to confirmation statements, filing histories, annual accounts and director appointments, for use with overseas registries, banks, regulators and courts. Prices start from £29 for a standard document or first page, including the translation, the certification and VAT, and shorter documents can often be certified the same day.

Company House Certified translation with signed statement and official company stamp

What’s included in your certified translation

Every certified Companies House documents translation includes the translation itself and a signed, dated statement confirming it is a true and accurate translation, carrying our name and contact details, together with our official company stamp on our letterhead. That signed statement, not the stamp alone, is what UK authorities look for. We are an established UK translation company, the first in the UK to achieve ISO 17100, with over twenty years of experience translating official and legal documents. You receive a copy by email, and we can also send a posted certified copy where the receiving authority does not accept a digital certification. Every document is handled securely and in line with GDPR.

Money-back guarantee on Companies house certified translations accepted by UK authorities and international organisations.

Accepted by the bodies that request it, guaranteed

Our certified Companies House document translations are produced to be accepted by the overseas bodies that ask for them and by UK authorities. Businesses rely on us when registering or operating a company abroad, opening corporate bank accounts, bidding for tenders, raising investment or meeting a foreign regulator, each of which asks for specific Companies House filings in the local language. Tell us which document and which country and body will receive the translation and we recommend and set the right level of certification, including an apostille or consular legalisation where the destination requires it, backed by our money-back guarantee.

Whichever filing they ask for, translated to match

Overseas bodies ask for different Companies House filings, sometimes the certificate of incorporation, sometimes the latest confirmation statement, the filing history or the annual accounts, so we translate precisely the document you have been asked to provide and reproduce every company name, number, date and officer name exactly. Where several filings are needed together, we keep the terminology and company details identical across the set, so the receiving body does not reject the file over an inconsistency between documents.

Legalisation for the destination country

Companies House documents are almost always used abroad, so the destination country usually needs the translation legalised as well as certified. Where the country is in the Hague Convention we can arrange an apostille, from £85, which covers the FCDO legalisation fee and secure courier; for other countries we can arrange consular legalisation through the relevant embassy. Tell us the destination and the documents and we confirm the correct order of certification, translation and legalisation before we begin.

What a certified Companies House documents translation costs

Certified Companies House document translation starts from £29 for a standard document or first page, including the translation, the certification and VAT; longer filings such as annual accounts are priced against the exact length, with additional pages from £26 for most languages. If notarisation is required, our in-house notary usually completes this the same day; an apostille, from £85, legalises the document for use in another Hague Convention country. Your exact price depends on the document, the language pair and the level of certification. Upload your documents for a fixed quote, or see our certified translation prices for a full breakdown.

How fast can you get it?

Shorter Companies House documents are usually ready within one to two working days, with same-day certification available on request; longer filings such as annual accounts are quoted against their length. We offer a standard and an express service and confirm a delivery date before you order. When you upload the documents, tell us which filings they are and your deadline.
