Marriage Certificate Translation Service

Absolute Translations is a leading provider of legal document translations in the UK. We can deliver a cost-effective and quick translation of your marriage certificate. To use a marriage certificate as a legal document in another country, you’re likely to need a translation of the certificate in the language of that country. And if you got married abroad, you may have a marriage certificate in another language that you need translated into English for use in the UK. Marriage certificate translations are commonly required for official situations where you need to prove your identity and marital status, such as opening bank accounts, applying for mortgages, court cases, legally changing your name, divorces, visa applications and more.

Certified Marriage Certificate Translation

Your experienced translator will be a native speaker of the language you need a translation into and will have at least five years’ experience in the translation industry. We will certify your translated document, which means stamping and signing every page to attest to the accuracy and truth of the translation so that your translation becomes an official document in its own right. Our marriage certificates are recognised by UK official bodies such as the Home Office and the courts, and our translations into other languages will be accepted by the authorities in other countries. With years of experience translating official personal documents, we are used to the legal requirements for translations and will deliver a correct, authenticated document that will do the job you need it to.

A document may need different levels of certification depending on the authority and the language.

Do I need to send original documents?

Some authorities may require that we use originals for certain documents, but they are not always needed.

Are my documents kept confidential?

We treat all documents we receive as confidential. Absolute Translations has already been working for institutions such as the UK government and the NHS, so its confidentiality policies and processes are already in place.

Fun Fact

Absolute Translations is always striving to improve and do better. While some companies have become carbon neutral, we went one step further to become carbon negative instead.

WHY SHOULD I USE ABSOLUTE TRANSLATIONS?

Our experience is that having your documents correctly certified can be confusing. At Absolute Translations we have a dedicated team organising certified, sworn, notarised and legalised/apostilled translations on a daily basis. We have over a decade of experience in certifying legal translations and our own dedicated Solicitor and Notary Public. By using our translation and certification services, you can save both time and money.

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE?

We offer both a standard and express service. However, for both these options the turnaround time will be based on the number of words and level of certification required. Despite the fact that we offer a faster service, we always advise our customers to certify their documents as far in advance as possible. You may use our calculator tool, to calculate the price & turnaround time.

WHICH LEVEL OF CERTIFICATION DO I NEED?

Each authority and country have different requirements. These requirements also change at times. We always advise customers to check with the authority requesting the translation which level of certification will be required, prior to placing the order.

HOW DO I SEND YOU THE DOCUMENTS?

We do not need the original documents for most circumstances. Photocopies can be scanned and sent by email, posted or alternatively handed into one of local offices. Documents may also be uploaded by using the certification calculator here on the right. The originals of some documents that are being Legalised/Apostilled may be required. Originals are normally required for Criminal Record Disclosures, Court documents or any document that is issued by a UK Registry Office, if they need to be Legalised/Apostilled.

HOW WILL I RECEIVE THE DOCUMENTS BACK?

Certified translations can either be collected or will be posted back to our customers. Email copies will not normally be valid for official use.

HOW IS THE PRICE CALCULATED?

The price is calculated based on the number of words and level of certification required. You may also use our calculator tool, to calculate the price & turnaround time.

I DON’T NEED THE TRANSLATION, ONLY CERTIFICATION

We are unable to make a declaration for certification on any translation that we have not carried out ourselves. Therefore, before we can certify the translation we would need to re-translate the document. If however the original document is already in the required language and you only need the service of a Solicitor or Notary Public, please contact us and discuss your requirements directly.

STANDARD CERTIFICATION

Translated document certified and presented in a securely-fastened folder. This type of translation is normally accepted in the UK by most authorities.

NOTARY TRANSLATION SERVICE

For the purpose of translation authentication, some jurisdictions require commercial or personal documents that have been translated, or that were issued in another country, to be notarised before they can be legally recognised. In this case, a Notary Public will affix a notarial certificate to attest the validity of the translation. Notarisation is normally carried out on the same day. However, this may vary depending on the number of documents and their complexity. We offer a full range of notary translation services both to individual customers and businesses, and provide a high quality, fast and efficient service.

APOSTILLE/LEGALISATION OF TRANSLATIONS

British documents being used for business or personal use overseas may need to be legalised or contain an Apostille (stamp of authenticity) before they can be officially recognised and accepted. The Foreign & Commonwealth Office legalisation or Apostille guarantees that the translated document is genuine. The term ‘Apostille’ is also commonly used in English to refer to the legalisation of a document for international use. Currently, most documents from the United Kingdom can be legalised, providing they bear the original signature, stamp or seal of an official UK public body. Photocopies of certain documents may be accepted. Please ask us for more information.
