Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about sworn translation services

What's the difference between sworn and regular translation?

Sworn translations are performed by court-appointed translators and include official certification with court seals. Regular certified translations are accurate but lack the legal weight of sworn translations.

Sworn translations are typically required for court documents, legal contracts, official certificates, and documents that will be used in Italian legal proceedings or government applications.

How long does sworn translation take?

Processing times vary by document complexity and court schedules, typically 7-14 business days. Complex legal documents may take longer due to the certification process.

Can sworn translators work in any language?

Court-appointed sworn translators are certified for specific language pairs. We work with translators qualified for your document's language combination.

Do I need both sworn translation and apostille?

It depends on the document type and destination. Some procedures require both sworn translation and apostille/legalization. We clarify requirements for your specific case.

Are sworn translations accepted worldwide?

Sworn translations are internationally recognized due to their court certification. However, some countries may require additional authentication depending on bilateral agreements.
