Notarized Translation

Our qualified translators can produce certified translations that are officially recognised. We support private customers and companies so that their documents are officially recognised in every country.

Translation with office certification

SwissCert's certification is recognized by many universities, Swiss, and foreign authorities without the need for notarial certification. We choose the right type of certification for you!

Notarized translation

Notarized translations are standard for Swiss authorities. SwissCert provides notarized translations for applications such as naturalization, marriage, or company formation in another country. Certified translations of documents, excerpts, judgments, diplomas, and certificates are part of our daily work.

Translation with qualified electronic signature

SwissCert offers translations with a qualified electronic signature delivered via email, equivalent to a translation with a stamp and signature as per ZertEs (Federal Law on Electronic Signatures). These can be delivered within 12 hours, allowing clients to receive officially recognized translations around the clock.

Notarized translation with apostille

A notarized translation with apostille is required to submit a document created in Switzerland to a foreign authority. SwissCert creates notarized translations with apostille for all countries in the Hague Convention.

Translation by sworn translators

Translations by sworn translators are recognized by many countries without further notarization. We work with sworn translators, especially for translations into English. Contact us to solve your translation needs!

Legalization by consulates in Switzerland

For documents created abroad that need to be submitted to Swiss authorities (e.g., birth certificates), it is often necessary to get an apostille from the country of origin. We translate and notarize these documents for submission to Swiss authorities.

Requirements for Certified Translations in Switzerland

SwissCert expertly manages all your certified translation requirements

Certified translations in Switzerland are generally prepared by professional translators and certified by a notary, lawyer, or other authorized body, depending on the requirements. For legal, financial, or official documents, it is essential to commission a qualified translator to ensure quality and accuracy.

SwissCert is a global translation agency with many years of experience in producing professional translations. Our experienced translators are fluent in over 60 languages and are familiar with Swiss regulations and requirements for certified translations. Whether you need documents translated into German, English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, or Italian, our team will provide accurate translations that are 100% accepted by Swiss authorities and worldwide.

Certified translations usually include a written declaration attached to the translated document, delivered either as an electronic PDF file or in physical form. This certified translation can be submitted together with the original document for applications such as naturalization, marriage, visa, legal, business, or school applications.

In Switzerland, a certified translation with an apostille is often required. SwissCert offers the right type of legalization for every case. The requirements for legalization vary depending on the purpose, canton, or office. Contact our experts to find out about the right type of certification for your needs.
