Sworn translations follow strict rules, in particular by using translators appointed by the courts of appeal. The translated documents are stamped as proof of certification, thus justifying a legal value equivalent to that of the original documents before French or foreign authorities.

During the certification process, we are authorised to work from scanned copies. Clearly, it is often both wise and necessary to work from the original documents. The translator must place his/her official stamp, signature and registration number on both the original and translation. The addition of an apostille (e.g.: certification of documents originating from a French or foreign authority) may also be required for document validity.
