Certified Italian translation

What is an Italian certified translation?

A certified translation is a complete translation accompanied by written confirmation that the translated document accurately represents the source document.

For documents being submitted in the UK, the translation normally also includes identifying and contact details, the translation date and the relevant certification information. The exact format should follow the instructions of the organisation receiving your document.

This is particularly important when an Italian document is being used for an immigration application, legal matter, academic application or another formal purpose. If the recipient has provided written requirements, send them with your document so the correct service can be confirmed.

Simple ordering process

How Italian certified translation works

The process is designed to establish the document, language direction, receiving organisation and required certification before the translation is completed.

STEP 01

Submit your document

Upload a clear scan, PDF or photograph and include every page that may need translating.

STEP 02

Review and confirmation

The document, intended use and requirements are reviewed so the appropriate service and timeframe can be confirmed.

STEP 03

Translation and checking

The Italian or English document is translated and checked for completeness, names, dates, terminology and presentation.

STEP 04

Receive your translation

Your completed certified translation is supplied in the agreed format for your next submission step.

Choose the correct route

Certified, notarised or apostille translation?

These services are not interchangeable. The receiving organisation should determine whether an ordinary certified translation is sufficient or whether an additional formality is required.

Certified translation

Usually the starting point when an organisation asks for a complete translation with an accuracy certification and identifiable provider details.

View service

Notarised translation

Adds a separate notarial step when the receiving organisation specifically asks for notarisation or authentication.

Check notarisation

Apostille-related translation

Applies when the document or relevant signature needs legalisation for an international submission. The correct sequence depends on the destination.

Turnaround and delivery

Allow time for the document to be reviewed properly

Typical turnaround for this service is 1–3 business days. The exact timing depends on the length and complexity of the document, so provide your deadline when submitting the file.

Digital document delivery can be arranged for completed translations. If your receiving organisation requires a printed document or another certification step, include that requirement before the order is confirmed.

Before you submit

Help avoid unnecessary delays

A complete, readable source file makes it easier to translate and certify the document correctly the first time.

If your recipient has issued specific instructions, include them rather than assuming that every organisation uses the same certification format.

Send the complete document

Include all relevant pages, reverse sides, stamps, seals, signatures and handwritten notes that form part of the document.

Check name spellings

Tell the team if names should match a passport, application or another official record.

Identify the recipient

State which authority, university, employer, solicitor or other organisation will receive the translation.

Provide your deadline

Mention the submission date at the beginning so the available turnaround can be assessed before work starts.

Do not add extra formalities automatically

Notarisation and apostille legalisation are separate steps and should normally be selected only when the receiving organisation requires them.

Common questions

Italian certified translation FAQs

Answers to common questions about Italian document translation, certification, timing and submission.

What is a certified translation?

A certified translation is a complete translation accompanied by a statement confirming its accuracy and completeness, together with the relevant identifying and certification information.

Can you translate from Italian to English and English to Italian?

Yes. This service covers certified translations from Italian into English and from English into Italian.

How long does an Italian certified translation take?

Typical turnaround is 1–3 business days, depending on the document's length and complexity. Provide your deadline when submitting the document so availability can be confirmed.

What types of documents can be translated?

The service covers a wide range of legal, medical, academic and personal documents. Send the complete file if you are unsure whether your particular document is suitable.

Is my document information kept confidential?

Does an Italian certified translation automatically need notarisation?

No. Certified translation and notarisation are separate services. Add a notarial step only when the receiving organisation specifically requires it.

Do I need an apostille as well?

Not automatically. An apostille is a separate legalisation process. Whether it is required depends on the document, destination country and instructions of the organisation receiving it.
