Frequently Asked Questions
-
Will my birth certificate translation be certified? And accepted by the Home Office and/or Passport Office?
Yes! Upon delivery of your certified translation, we will confirm the following in writing:
- that it’s a ‘true and accurate translation of the original document’
- the date of the birth certificate translation
- the full name and contact details of our translation company
Birth certificate translations presented to the Passport Office must be provided by UK-based translation agencies that are members of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting (ITI) and the Association of Translation Companies (ATC). Not only do we have membership with these organisations, but we are also multi award-winning with both! Read more.
-
Can you provide birth certificate translation from this language?
We work in over 300 languages, so it’s very likely that we can help you! The languages from which we translate most frequently include French, German, Italian, and Spanish.
-
How do I send you my birth certificate for a quote?
A scan or a high-quality photo should usually be enough for certified or notarised birth certificate translation. If you require a legalised (apostilled) translation then we do require the original hard copy.
-
How long will my birth certificate translation take?
2 business days is our standard turnaround time for certified birth certificate translation, but do speak to us if a faster turnaround is required. Depending on language combination and translator availability, we may be able to accommodate – it’s always worth an ask!

How much does birth certificate translation cost? And how does payment work?
Our standard certification package comes to £79 (£94.80 incl. VAT). Once you have received our quote and are happy to proceed, let us know and we will provide you with details to arrange a BACS transfer, before making a start on your translation.

What is the difference between certified, notarised, and legalised translation?
A certified translation is signed and stamped by us at Atlas Translations, certifying that the translation is true and accurate. A notarised translation is signed and stamped by us as well as by a public notary. A legalised (or apostilled) translation is signed and stamped by us, a public notary, and the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO).
