Certified witness statement translation

A certified witness statement translation is an official translation of a witness statement, the written evidence a person gives in legal or immigration proceedings, accompanied by a signed statement confirming it is a true and accurate rendering of the original. At Absolute Translations we translate and certify witness statements both ways, a foreign-language statement for use in UK proceedings and a UK statement for use abroad, for courts, the Home Office and UKVI and solicitors. Prices start from £29, and because a witness statement can run to several pages, we quote against the exact length.

What’s included in your certified translation

Every certified witness statement 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 witness statement translation services accepted by UK authorities and international organisations.

Accepted by courts and authorities, guaranteed

Our certified witness statement translations are produced to be accepted by the bodies that receive them as evidence. Solicitors and applicants rely on us when a witness statement is filed with a UK court, when a statement supports an asylum or immigration application to the Home Office, and when a statement must be understood by a court or authority abroad. Tell us which body will receive the translation and we recommend and set the right level of certification, including swearing or notarisation where a process requires it, backed by our money-back guarantee.

With over 2000 five Trustpilot reviews our reputation is everything!

A witness statement is evidence, so its weight depends on being translated faithfully, neither softening nor sharpening what the witness said. We use translators experienced in legal documents and render the statement precisely, including any statement of truth, keeping the meaning and register intact, and where a phrase has no direct equivalent we add a short translator’s note rather than interpret, so a court or caseworker reads exactly what the witness stated.

Court and immigration deadlines, and further steps

Witness statements are filed to strict deadlines and often alongside other documents, so we translate the statement and any exhibits or supporting documents together, keep names and terminology consistent, and confirm a delivery date against the length before you order. Where the process requires it, we can arrange for the statement to be sworn as an affidavit or notarised. Tell us the court or authority and the deadline.

Certified witness statement translation starts from £29, and because a witness statement can run to several pages, we price 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 language pair, the number of pages and the level of certification. Upload your statement for a fixed quote, or see our certified translation prices for a full breakdown.

Turnaround for certified witness statement translation depends on the length, but many are ready within a few working days, with an express service available. We confirm a delivery date against the exact page count before you order. When you upload the document, tell us your deadline and any related documents.
