Officially valid for the UK Home Office, UKVI, HM Courts & Tribunals, universities and embassies — for businesses, law firms and private individuals
Certified translations with the translator's signed statement of accuracy — confirming a complete and accurate translation, with translator or agency name, signature, contact details and certification date as required by UK authorities (per gov.uk guidance). Accepted by the UK Home Office, UKVI (UK Visas and Immigration), HM Courts & Tribunals Service, UK universities, registry offices and embassies. Includes Hague Apostille Convention (1961) legalisation via the FCDO Legalisation Office, or consular legalisation via the destination country's UK embassy.
Ecrivus works exclusively with sworn and court-authorised translators whose credentials are recognised by the competent authorities in their jurisdiction. Every translation carries an official stamp and signature, is reviewed by a second specialist, and is admissible before courts, immigration authorities, notaries and government bodies internationally.
Certified translations are required for official documents such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, diplomas, employment contracts, articles of association and immigration documents. Without proper certification, translations are not accepted by government authorities or courts. Lead time is confirmed in the quote; for rush assignments we indicate the turnaround we can meet up front. Explore our most popular language combinations including Dutch-English, German-English and French-English.
We handle the full workflow around your certified translation — from sworn translator with stamp and signature to apostille legalisation, rush delivery and dispatch of originals by registered post.
For use in the 120+ countries that have signed the Hague Apostille Convention (1961). We arrange the apostille with the competent authority and deliver your certified translation plus apostille in a single workflow — no separate embassy visit required.
For countries outside the Apostille Convention (e.g. Canada, UAE, Vietnam) full consular legalisation is required. We manage the entire chain: court → ministry of foreign affairs → embassy — one point of contact for the whole process.

You send us your document by email or via our secure upload form. We confirm receipt and provide a quote covering lead time and price — always under NDA.
Your project is assigned to a sworn or court-authorised translator who specialises in the relevant language pair and subject matter — recognised by the competent authority in their jurisdiction (Rbtv in the Netherlands, OLG in Germany, cour d'appel in France, Tribunal in Belgium and equivalent bodies elsewhere).
The translator produces an accurate translation and attaches their official stamp, signature and signed certification statement confirming that the translation is a faithful representation of the original.
Each certified translation undergoes a quality-control pass for accuracy, completeness and terminological consistency — with a second specialist reviewing the file where the legal field, risk profile or volume requires it.
You receive the certified translation digitally (a certified PDF with stamp and signature) and, on request, as a certified hard copy by registered post. Apostille legalisation is also available.
A certified translation is not a text document with an extra stamp — it is an official, legally valid piece of evidence. Our translators are personally sworn or court-authorised and can be deployed for courts, immigration authorities, notaries and embassies, in more than 225 languages.
From stamp and signature to quality control and apostille — our approach is calibrated for documents that leave no room for doubt.
All our certified translators are recognised by the competent authorities in their country — courts, ministries of justice and registers of sworn translators — so the translation is admissible before authorities worldwide.
Need it urgently? Send us your deadline and we will confirm in the quote the turnaround we can meet — including official certification and quality control before delivery, with no compromise on quality.
From Arabic and Hindi to Swedish and Albanian: we provide certified translations in more than 225 languages — including less common immigration languages and rare combinations.
Our certified translations are accepted by courts, immigration authorities, notaries, embassies, civil registries and ministries — across the Netherlands, the DACH region, France, Belgium, the United Kingdom, the United States and beyond.
Every certified translation runs through our quality process — officially sworn translators, a certified signature on every document and review by a second specialist where the legal field, risk profile or volume requires it.
