Legal Translator Services for Personal / Family

If you have original documents issued in a foreign country and need to use them in Canada for purposes of immigration/ citizenship application, education, job search, execution of financial arrangements, family proceedings, or litigation, you will be required to produce translated copies of these documents in one of the official languages - English or French.

Global provides multi-language translation for a wide range of personal legal documents:

Personal Identification Birth Certificates Death Certificates Passports Driver's Licenses Certificates of No Criminal Conviction Immigration and Citizenship Documents Other Personal ID Documents Education and Employment University and School Transcripts Educational and Professional Diplomas Academic Records Employment Letters	Translation of Personal Legal Documents Arabic Chinese (Simplified) Chinese (Traditional) Farsi English German Italian Korean Spanish

Family Marriage Certificates Pre-Nuptial Agreements Adoption Papers Divorce and Custody Papers Certificates of Household Registration Financial Wills Trusts Power of Attorney Insurance Policies Insurance Claims and Supporting Documents

Whether you present us with legal documents in Chinese, Arabic, Spanish, German, Italian, Korean, Farsi or any other language, our experienced legal translators will turn these into English for you.

Alternatively, you may receive or need to prepare a legal document in English for official purposes but are not very comfortable with the language, in which case we can translate the contents into your native language for your better understanding.

The legal translators selected to work on your legal translator services will be experienced with the specific type of legal document translation on hand.

Certified and Notarized Translation
If your documents are required by government agencies, educational institutions, professional associations, employers, or the court, and the original documents are not in the official languages, you are likely required to submit certified or notarized translations, or both.

Global provides both certified and notarized translations. When you provide us with your document, please specify whether you require certified translation, notarized translation, or both. Please also remember to provide us with your official English name.

Certified Translation - Our certified translators have passed standardized examinations or certification and are members in good standing with recognized translator associations such as the Association of Translators and Interpreters of Ontario (ATIO). They vouchsafe for their quality by a signed statement attesting accuracy and with association issued stamp applied.

Notarized Translation - Notarization of a translated document involves a sworn affidavit by the translator before a Notary Public who affixes his/her seal to the translated document. The affidavit contains the translator's credentials and the translator's declaration that the translated document is a true and exact translation of the source documents.

Global can assist you in arranging for notarized translations. Please provide us with your original document or a certified true copy of it.

Confidentiality
Legal documents contain a lot of sensitive personal information. Global protects client information by requiring all its translators to sign confidentiality agreements that protect your information.
