Certificate of No Impediment translation

A certified Certificate of No Impediment translation is an official translation of a Certificate of No Impediment, the document that shows you are free to marry, accompanied by a signed statement confirming it is a true and accurate rendering of the original. At Absolute Translations we translate and certify Certificates of No Impediment for couples marrying abroad, and we translate a foreign certificate for marrying in the UK, for register offices and foreign authorities. Prices start from £29 for a standard document or first page, including the translation, the certification and VAT, and because the certificate is short, many can be certified the same day.

What's included in your certified translation

Every certified certificate of no impediment 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 no impediment certificate translation services accepted by UK authorities and international organisations.

Accepted by the authority conducting the marriage, guaranteed

Our certified Certificate of No Impediment translations are produced to be accepted by the authority that will conduct or register the marriage. Couples rely on us when marrying abroad, where the local authority requires proof that neither party is already married, and when a foreign national marries in the UK. Tell us which country and authority will receive the translation and we recommend and set the right level of certification, and where the destination requires it we arrange an apostille or consular legalisation, backed by our money-back guarantee.

A Certificate of No Impediment is accepted on the strength of a specific legal statement, that there is no impediment to the marriage, so we translate that statement precisely and reproduce both parties’ names, the dates and the issuing authority exactly. Marriage authorities abroad are strict about the wording and about how recent the certificate is, so an accurate, faithful translation prevents a wedding being delayed over a query.

Marrying abroad, with legalisation arranged

Almost every Certificate of No Impediment translated for a wedding abroad also needs to be legalised, so we can arrange an apostille, from £85, for Hague Convention countries or consular legalisation for others, in time for the ceremony. Tell us the country you are marrying in and your wedding date and we confirm the legalisation route and a delivery date before you order, so the paperwork is ready in time.

Certified certificate of no impediment 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.

Most certified certificate of no impediment translations are ready within one to two working days, and because the document is usually short, same-day certification is available on request, which matters against a wedding date. 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.
