Certified Disclosure Scotland translation

A certified Disclosure Scotland translation is an official translation of a Disclosure Scotland certificate, the Scottish criminal record disclosure, accompanied by a signed statement confirming it is a true and accurate rendering of the original. At Absolute Translations we translate and certify Basic, Standard, Enhanced and PVG disclosures for use abroad, and we translate foreign police checks for a role or visa in Scotland, for employers, licensing bodies and immigration authorities. Prices start from £29 for a standard document or first page, including the translation, the certification and VAT, and because these certificates are short, many can be certified the same day.

Disclosure Scotland translation services Certificate with signed statement and official company stamp.

What’s included in your certified translation

Every certified Disclosure Scotland certificate 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 Certified Disclosure Scotland translation services accepted by UK authorities and international organisations.

Accepted by employers and abroad, guaranteed

Our certified Disclosure Scotland translations are produced to be accepted by the bodies that request them. People rely on us when a Disclosure Scotland certificate is needed for a job, visa or residency in another country, and when a foreign police or criminal record check is needed for a regulated role or visa in the UK. Tell us which body will receive the translation and we recommend and set the right level of certification, including an apostille where a certificate is used abroad, backed by our money-back guarantee.

Disclosure level and content rendered exactly

A disclosure is checked against your identity documents and read closely for what it discloses, so we reproduce your name, date of birth and every personal detail exactly as they appear, and translate the disclosure level and its content precisely, whether that is a clear result, specific entries or PVG scheme membership. Where a name is spelled differently on your passport or an official phrase has no direct English equivalent, we add a short translator’s note.

Meeting deadlines, and use abroad

Disclosures are often needed against an employment or immigration deadline, so we offer same-day certification on these short documents and confirm a delivery date before you order. Where a Disclosure Scotland certificate is going abroad, the destination country often needs it legalised as well as certified, so we can arrange an apostille, from £85, for Hague Convention countries or consular legalisation for others.

What a certified Disclosure Scotland certificate translation costs

Certified Disclosure Scotland certificate translation starts from £29 for a standard document or first page, including the translation, the certification and VAT; additional pages, where needed, are from £26 for most languages. Because the document is usually short, most orders sit at the base price. 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 language pair, the number of pages and the level of certification. Upload your certificate for a fixed quote, or see our certified translation prices for a full breakdown.

How fast can you get it?

Most certified Disclosure Scotland certificate translations are ready within one to two working days, and because the document is usually short, same-day certification is available on request, which is often important for an employment or immigration deadline. We offer both a standard and an express service. When you upload your document, tell us your deadline and we will confirm a delivery date before you order.
