Personal Translation You Can Trust

Personal Translation You Can Trust - Atlas Translations - Translation Agency - Certified Translation

Over the years at Atlas Translations, we’ve worked with companies and businesses from all over the globe. What may be a slight surprise, however, is the amount of work we do with private individuals – from CVs to birth certificates and everything in between! A lot of translation agencies will turn away smaller jobs and have a ‘bigger fish to fry’ attitude, but for us no job is too small. Our friendly and efficient service has made us a great choice for all sorts of personal translation needs.

Our wide range of translation services

We offer plenty of different options for whatever you’re looking for. Whether it’s moving to a new country, renewing important documents or any other personal translation query, our fully qualified team of translators are on hand to help.

Some of the many services we offer include certified translation of official certificates, such as birth, death, university, medical and marriage papers. We’ve also got plenty of professional experience working with passports, court papers and other important documents. Our team members are available immediately during UK business hours to offer quotes and advice on any translation queries you may have.

Confidential service you can trust

When you work with Atlas Translations, you can be sure that you’re engaging with knowledgeable translators who are experienced in providing quality translations. All of our translators work in their mother tongue. We offer a number of certified translation packages that are able to meet the needs of our clients to a satisfyingly high standard.

Much of the work we do with private individuals involves legal documents that require certain qualifications to be recognised. As a certified translations company, we’re able to provide the certifications necessary to meet any legal requirements.

This means we are able to arrange notarisation services, where a document is signed and stamped by a public notary to prove its legality. We can also provide services to apostille and legalise your documents, which involves certification of the documents by the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO).

Plenty of happy customers

Every service we offer at Atlas Translations is guided by an experienced project manager, who is on hand to provide expertise and advice throughout the process. Many of the personal translations we deal with revolve around important life events. Lots of our clients mention that the personal touch that Atlas provides was really significant to them in emotional circumstances.

Some of our favourite client stories have been in the name of love. We’ve worked with clients getting married abroad who needed us to translate legal documents, as well as providing interpretation on the big day in some cases. We even helped one groom impress his Polish father-in-law with a wedding day speech in Polish!
