Become a Certified Translation Agency in UAE in Just 5 Steps!

It is quite easy to find a skillful translator who is bilingual or multilingual. However, not every translator is certified. To be certified, translators must undergo many qualifying tests that check whether they have the required competencies to do the job perfectly.

Thus, by hiring a certified translation agency in UAE, you make sure that your important information is in safe hands.

In this article, we will explain how to become a certified translation company in UAE. Yet, before we go through this, we will unfold the differences between a certified translation and regular translation.

What Is Certified Translation?

It is a special type of translation that requires a translator with outstanding language skills, preferably with a postgraduate degree, to translate an official or legal document. The certified translator takes full responsibility for the translated text and accompanies the translation with a letter of certification stamped with his/her own seal.

You should know that any errors are not allowed in this type of translation as this may lead to delays, rejections, or costly results.

Torjoman offers you certified translations that are valid and accountable since we provide you with a certificate stamped by a translator guaranteeing the authenticity of the translated text.

What Are the Differences Between Certified Translation and Regular Translation?

Purposes

Certified translations are needed when translating legal or official documents that need approval from a governmental sector.

Being an ISO 17100-certified agency, Torjoman delivers the highest-quality certified translations in any official document.

The following are examples of such documents:

• Birth certificates
• Marriage and divorce certificates
• Educational documents
• Criminal records
• Immigration documents
• Passports
• Commercial invoices

As for normal translation, if your documents are related to business, marketing, literature, technology, or any other fields, you do not need a certified translation.

Delivery

Certified translation is delivered in a non-editable format along with a certification letter that has an authentication statement from the translator that the translation is ready to be used for official purposes.

Regular translations are delivered in editable formats that clients can freely change.

Formatting

Certified translations should be in the same format as the source file. However, this does not matter a lot in regular translations unless you submit an editable file. In this case, the same format can be used easily.

Pricing

The cost of certified translations is higher than that of standard translations because of the high qualifications of the certified translators and the big responsibilities that fall on their shoulders.

If you are looking for certified translation services that are budget-friendly and cost-effective, Torjoman is here to help!
