The notary and certified translations the do and the don’ts Certified translation is important Yes. A certified translation means that the LSP or translator has provided a signed statement that the translation is a true and accurate translation of the original. Certified translations are usually required for legal documents such as business contracts, court transcripts, immigration documents, adoption agreements, and birth, death, or marriage certificates.
Translator needs to be certified. No. Certified translation and a certified translator are not the same thing. A certified translator is a professional translator who has passed an exam and received certification on from an organization like the American Translators Association. How- ever, a translator doesn’t need to be certified in order to provide a certified translation.
