German Translation Services: Sworn Translations

Germany is an example of a country that requires sworn translations for official documents. Sworn translations are known in German as “beglaubigte/bescheinigte Übersetzungen” and are translations that possess legal validity. These translations are signed and stamped by sworn (court) translators. The protocol of the sworn translation procedure differs from country to country. German Administration, universities, judges and notaries will generally only accept a sworn translation into German. A sworn translation consists of the translation of the document, the original text or its copy, and the translator’s statement on the completeness and faithfulness of the translation. If you are planning to use your documents officially in Germany, JK Translate can help you out with your sworn translations!

English to German translations | Official documents

Official documents are our speciality! JK Translate has a large network of sworn translators in Germany. Why is a sworn translation so crucial for Germany? Sworn translations are a requirement inthis country. Sworn translators are appointed by German regional courts (“Landgerichte”). Typically, a prospective sworn translator must take an exam to become a “beeidigte Übersetzer“. Such translators must take an oath either at a higher regional court or at a district court to attain a right to certify translations. Once a translator becomes a sworn translator, he/she is authorized to translate and certify the documents. These documents are signed and sealed by such translators and give a written attestation to the fact that translation is valid and true to the original.

FAQ

Your translation questions answered

What is a sworn translation?

A sworn translation is a translation carried out by a sworn translator. You will always receive the physical copy of the translation by post and the scanned document by e-mail. A sworn translator has taken an oath and is registered with the court as someone who is able to deliver truthful translations for a specific language pair. A sworn translation contains the stamp of the translator and his or her statement that the translation has been translated to the best of his/her ability and as truthfully as possible. You will need a sworn translation if a government agency or other official body requires a translation of an official document, such as your passport, driver’s license or diploma.


You will need a sworn translation for official documents that you have to show or submit to a government agency or other official body. If you are unsure whether or not a sworn translation is required, we advise you to check this with the authorities concerned. For use in the Netherlands, a sworn translation by a sworn translator registered in the Netherlands will be sufficient. For use abroad, you may also need an apostille or even legalisation at Foreign Affairs and the relevant embassy.


Strictly speaking, a sworn translation is not the same as a certified translation. A sworn translator is appointed in his or her personal capacity as a capable translator. By adding his or her stamp and statement to a translation, a translation is sworn. A certified translation means that the translation is certified by a third party as a true representation of the source document. This third party may be a notary, a lawyer, or a translation agency. Some countries, such as Portugal, do not have sworn translations and mainly work with certified translations. In the Netherlands, on the other hand, sworn translations are common. Are you not sure whether you need a sworn or a certified translation? Please feel free to contact us.


A certified translation is a translation that is certified by a third party as a true representation of the source document. This third party may be a notary, a lawyer, or a translation agency. Unlike with a sworn translation, a certified translation is not necessarily carried out by someone who is authorised by a court or government to translate official documents in their personal capacity. Some countries, such as Portugal, do not have sworn translations and mainly work with certified translations. In the Netherlands, on the other hand, sworn translations are common.
