Notary-verified translations for documents requiring formal authentication. Accepted by US courts, USCIS, school districts, and government agencies in 50+ language pairs.
A notarized translation is a translation accompanied by a sworn affidavit signed by the translator before a licensed notary public. The notary verifies the translator's identity and witnesses the affidavit, then affixes their seal and signature to the document. The result is a translation with an additional layer of formal authentication beyond a standard certified translation.
Notarized translation is required by some US courts, certain government agencies, particular school districts, and many international document legalization chains. It is not always required for USCIS submissions: a certified translation usually suffices for immigration. Always confirm the specific requirement with the receiving authority before ordering.

A notarized translation is a translation accompanied by an affidavit from the translator, sworn before a notary public, attesting to the accuracy and completeness of the translation. The notary verifies the translator's identity and signature; the notary does not verify the translation itself.
No. A certified translation includes a signed declaration of accuracy from the translator and is generally what USCIS and most US authorities require. A notarized translation adds a notary public seal that verifies the translator's identity. Some authorities specifically request notarized translation; others accept certified translation.
Notarized translation is most commonly required for documents submitted to certain US courts, some state government agencies, certain school districts, and international document chains requiring legalization or apostille. Always confirm the specific requirement with the receiving authority before ordering.
