## Frequently asked questions

### What are certified translation services in Russia?

Certified translation services in Russia refer to the professional translation of documents that is formally verified by a notary public. In Russia, a translation is certified when a licensed notary confirms the translator's identity, qualifications, and signature. The notary then attaches the translation to the original document and stamps it with an official seal, making it legally valid.

### Which documents usually need certified translation for use in Russia or abroad?

Common documents requiring certified translation include birth certificates, marriage certificates, passports, police clearance certificates, diplomas and transcripts, court decisions, contracts, powers of attorney, company registration documents, and financial statements.

### How fast can you deliver a certified translation for Russian documents?

Our standard turnaround for certified translations is typically 12 - 48 hours. You can also request an express service with delivery in 12 hours or even same-day, depending on the language pair and availability.

### Are your certified translations accepted by Russian courts, universities, and embassies?

Translayte's certified translations are prepared to meet the standards typically required by Russian courts, notaries, universities, migration authorities, and foreign embassies and consulates. Our translators provide signed certificates of accuracy that are recognised by authorities in Russia and internationally.

### Do I need notarisation, an apostille, and a certified translation?

It depends on the receiving authority and the document's purpose. Many Russian authorities, such as universities and some migration offices, accept certified translations without notarisation. However, Russian courts, notaries, and some foreign embassies may require your certified translation to be notarised by a Russian notary.

### Can I order official translation services online from outside Russia?

Translayte's service is 100% online and available to clients anywhere in the world. Whether you're in Russia or abroad, you can upload your documents, receive your certified translation by email, and request printed copies by international courier if needed.

### How much do certified translations cost in Russia?

Our certified translation services in Russia start at $24.99 per page. The final cost depends on the language pair, document length, complexity, subject, and urgency.

### Which languages do you offer for Russian certified translations?

We offer certified translation services in over 150 language combinations, including Russian ↔ English, Russian ↔ French, Russian ↔ German, Russian ↔ Spanish, and Russian ↔ Portuguese.

### Can I use machine translation, or do I need a human-certified translation?

Official authorities in Russia and abroad require human-certified translations. Machine translations are not accepted for legal, immigration, academic, or official purposes.

## About this service

## Certified Translation in Russia – What It Is and Why It Matters

A certified translation (заверенный перевод) in Russia is an accurate translation of your documents submitted for official use. Your translation must be notarised by a Russian notary or prepared by a translator whose signature is certified by a notary.

Whether you are applying for a visa, citizenship or a Russian passport, the authorities require this type of translation. Depending on the receiving body and document purpose, your certified translation may also need to be accompanied by an apostille or consular legalisation.

Submitting self-translated documents or documents translated by an unrecognised translator will lead to rejection, delayed application, and other issues.

Translayte is a leading provider of certified translation services for official procedures with courts, notaries, universities, banks, and migration authorities. Our translations are handled by native speakers who understand the language and the formatting requirements of Russian and global authorities.

Every translation is done by a translator recognised by Russian authorities and accompanied by a notary’s seal and signature confirming its accuracy. With our Russian translation services, you can expect 100% acceptance, on-time delivery and application processes without delays.
