Legal Translation Services

With the greater movement of people, goods and businesses these days legal documents need to go with just about anything or anyone. If you are seeking a job abroad in a country that doesn’t speak your language, you will need all your legal documents translated into that language so they can be understood by officials in that country. This includes degree and diploma certificates, your birth certificate and, if your family is accompanying you, their birth certificates.Your marriage certificate, if you are married, will need to be translated, too. These are considered to be legal documents, so you will need a competent legal translation services to do the translations on your behalf.

Even if you are fluent in the language of your host country, many government organizations in other countries will not allow a visitor to do his or her translations. It’s not because they don’t believe you are competent, it’s more the case of knowing what the equivalent language is, for example, words in a birth certificate. This is the sort of knowledge a translator hired by an experienced and competent legal translation services will know well.

If you want your legal documents to pass the legal translation test then you will put your important translations in the right hands in the first place. Most legal translations for government purposes need to be certified and signed by the translator who did the work. This gives them some sort of guarantee that the translation is accurate.

Certified Translation Professional

Who is a certified translation professional?

You may have visited, worked or lived in a country that does not speak your language on a regular basis and have as a result become just about fluent in your second country’s language. This experience you think offers an opportunity for you to become a translator in the two languages you know so well. There is a question you need to address and that is should you complete a course that qualifies you to undertake translations?

Technically, a certified translator is a translator who has passed an exam organized by the American Translator Association or another similar translator’s accreditation agency.

Advantages of being a certified translation professional

1.      Passing a translator’s exam means you have proved your competence as a translator as determined by the professional body which conducted the exam.

2.      It shows you are a committed certified translation professional, which is what possible employers and clients may prefer when paying for your services.

Disadvantages of being a certified translation professional

1.      Becoming a certified translator is not cheap and with yearly membership fees could amount to several hundred dollars.

2.      Thorough preparation for the examination is essential as you will be assessed on a variety of political, financial, legal and scientific documents.

6 easy steps to become a certified translation professional

·         Join the ATA.

·         Become eligible to sit the certification exam, which takes place following the signing of the code of ethics compiled by the ATA.

·         Have professional and academic experience as a result of obtaining advanced qualifications in the form of an approved interpretation and translation degree.

·         Gain a degree that is not in either interpretation or translation and 2 years of experience in professional translation.

·         Gain a qualification that is not as high as a BA, along with 5 years of experience of professional translation.

·         Complete the 3 hour open-book exam in your language pair. 

Even though going through the stages of becoming a certified translation professional helps to validate your translation expertise, you do not have to be a certified translator in order to take a job performing certified translations. In the United States, accreditation is not a prerequisite for becoming a translator.  This can be confirmed by such U.S. authorities as the United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) which defines a certified translation when a translation has taken place of a document and the translator is prepared to write a signed statement vouching that the translation is completely accurate. There is no need for the translator to attach any professional diploma, degree or certificate to prove his or her ability as a certified translation professional.

Cinchtranslations Reminds Valued Clients About its Certified Document Translators

Cinchtranslations, Florida’s leading translation agency, reminds all of its valued clients about its team of certified document translators.

Cinchtranslations says that it is getting requests from individuals to translate and certify legal documents that have already been translated inaccurately. The translation agency says that this is typical when someone doesn’t realize how important it is to translate all official documents correctly. Some of their clients have tried to take shortcuts by using a friend or relative to do the translation for them, but in the end have just extended the time it takes for their applications to be processed.

Certification is mandatory when documents are required to be translated for government agencies like the United States Citizenship and Immigration Service (USCIS). It is this agency that handles thousands of applications from foreign nationals every year. One can hardly expect government employees charged with reviewing and assessing all the documents they deal with to understand what information is contained in them when there may be dozens of different languages involved.

The USCIS and other organizations which routinely inspect foreign legal documents get around this obstacle by asking for certified document translators to handle these documents. Although there is no specific requirement for the translator to be officially recognized, Cinchtranslations states that it certainly makes a lot of difference using a professional translation agency like theirs. They not only have a well qualified and experienced team of certified document translators ready to translate any sort of legal or official document, but they are able to handle a huge range of world languages too.

The Florida based company says that it is proud of its reputation as one of Florida’s most trusted translation agencies. It says that it has never had any of its certified translated documents rejected by the USCIS or any other body.

The most common documents that need a certified document translator are the personal identification documents like birth and marriage certificates, employment records, educational, trade and professional qualifications as well as police certificates that are needed to show that the applicant does not have a criminal record.

It is unlikely in this day and age of increasing mobility and concern about background that the need for certified document translators is going to diminish any time soon.
