Importance of Sworn Translation and Basic Information
Sworn translation is the process of translating official documents and documents from one language to another and the process of making these translations legally valid. In transactions that require officiality and accuracy, it is of great importance that documents are translated accurately and in accordance with the original. In Turkey, sworn translators are persons authorised by a notary public. These persons guarantee the accuracy of their translations with an oath. Sworn translations are generally requested by notaries, courts, consulates and government offices. Such translation services are also very valid in the international arena and ensure the acceptance of documents in many countries. Sworn translations may be required not only for written documents but also for oral agreements.
Things to Consider in the Sworn Translation Process
When starting the sworn translation process, it is important that the document to be translated is clear and legible. Care should be taken to ensure that there is no loss of meaning or addition between the original and the translation. When choosing a translator, it should be checked whether the translator's area of expertise is compatible with the document. Since the translation process will be approved by a notary public, the translator must be sworn by a notary public. In order for the process to be fast and accurate, all information and requirements must be communicated to the translator correctly. Finally, sworn translation documents should be updated from time to time; therefore, it is of great importance to check whether the translated document is up-to-date.
Documents Required for Sworn Translation and Application Process
When requesting a sworn translation, the first step is to submit the original or a notarised copy of the document to be translated. Documents may include many official documents such as identity documents, diplomas, marriage certificates, and trade registry gazette. When making an application, it should be clearly stated in which language the document is in and which language it will be translated into. An application form is usually filled out and in some cases an application fee may be charged. The application process may vary depending on whether the translation is certified or not and the nature of the document. Once the translation is completed, it is signed by the translator and certified by a notary public.
Legal Validity and Uses of Sworn Translation
The legal validity of a sworn translation varies depending on the place and purpose for which the document will be used. In Turkey and in many foreign countries, sworn translated documents are considered official and valid for legal transactions. Sworn translations are generally used in many different fields such as immigration procedures, education and work in foreign countries, and inter-company agreements. The accuracy and sworn accuracy of these translations increase the legal acceptability of the documents. Especially in the international arena, sworn translations are a great element of trust.
