Sworn translations & legalisation
For official documents which need to be submitted to foreign organisations, a sworn translation is often required. This means that a declaration with the stamp and signature of a sworn translator is attached at the end of the translation. A sworn translator is registered in the Sworn Interpreters and Translators Quality register and with one or more courts.
Legalisation with or without Apostille
Besides a sworn translation, legalisation may also be required. Here too, BTS can be of service. If the country involved is party to the Apostille Convention, an apostille on the sworn translation is sufficient. If not, further steps need to be taken. Approval must be obtained by the court, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the relevant consulate or embassy. BTS can ensure that the legalised document is delivered to you or the receiving organisation as quickly as possible.

For urgent jobs, we have speedy access to a Dutch sworn translator, an English sworn translator and a German sworn translator. For these languages, we always have sworn translators on standby for urgent jobs. Please contact us to discuss the options.
