Certified translations \u2013 sometimes also called officially certified translations \u2013 confirm that the content of the translation corresponds to the original. Each page also contains a stamp, signature, date, and indication of the working language. This ensures that your translated documents are recognized by authorities, universities, courts, or employers.<\/p>\n
Sometimes a notarized translation is required \u2013 this means that the translator’s signature is additionally certified by a notary.<\/p>\n
If you want to send documents abroad, especially to countries outside of Switzerland, a certified translation with an apostille may be necessary. The apostille is usually affixed to the notarized translation. It corresponds to international legalization under the Hague Convention.<\/p>\n
In Switzerland, you often need certified translations for: \u2022 Residence and immigration documents \u2022 Recognition of foreign diplomas (e.g., at the SEM or universities) \u2022 Civil status documents (birth, marriage, divorce certificates) \u2022 Court judgments, contracts, wills \u2022 Applications to authorities or public institutions<\/p>\n
Unlike a simple translation\u2014such as those used for marketing texts, tourism content, or communication\u2014certified translations require strict formal requirements to be legally recognized.<\/p>\n
\u2022 The price is usually based on the number of words or lines, language combination, and urgency. \u2022 Sample rates (minimum prices): o Notarized translation: from CHF 180.00 o With apostille: from CHF 275 per page. Processing time: approximately 3\u20135 business days for simple translations. Certification, 4\u20135 business days with apostille. Important: AI cannot (yet) replace this! Artificial intelligence (e.g., automatic translation tools) may be impressively fast \u2013 but it cannot guarantee the legal certainty, formal requirements, and personal authentication required for certified translations. Only translations created by qualified, certified, or sworn translators \u2013 possibly notarized \u2013 are legally recognized.<\/p>\n
