Notarised Passport Translation in Kharkiv
A notarised passport translation at Etalon in Kharkiv means the whole document - every page with stamps, marks and registration - plus a single, consistent Latin spelling of your name taken from your foreign passport. These are the two points where consulates and banks most often reject a file, so we build the entire job around them. Translation starts from 150 UAH and notarisation of the translator's signature from 250 UAH. We accept the original or a scan at our head office at 47 Sumska St, Office 11 (Shevchenkivskyi district), or work fully online with courier delivery in Kharkiv and Nova Poshta across Ukraine.
- We translate every passport page with stamps, marks and registration, not just the photo spread - consulates and banks require the full document
- We lock the Latin spelling of your first and last name to your foreign passport, so one version appears across all documents
- We handle the booklet passport, the ID card (together with the registry extract showing your address) and the foreign travel passport
- One central office at 47 Sumska St since 2008: walk in, order online or request a courier - your choice
Our only Kharkiv office has operated in the very centre at 47 Sumska St since 2008 - a few minutes' walk from Arkhitektora Beketova and Universytet metro stations. Residents of other districts can order online and receive their translation by courier or Nova Poshta.
When you need a passport translation
A notarised passport translation is most often required for visa applications, temporary or permanent residence permits, marriage to a foreign national, opening an account with a foreign bank, employment and enrolment in a school or university abroad. In each case the receiving party expects a complete translation certified by a notary.
We translate both the Ukrainian passport (booklet and ID card) and the foreign travel passport. For the ID card we also translate the registry extract showing the registered address, since the card itself does not display it. If you are unsure which set of documents your institution requires, send us the requirements and we will advise exactly what must be translated and certified.
How we translate a passport: every page, one name
A passport translation is not just the photo spread - it is page-by-page work on the whole document. We reproduce every page that carries marks: visas, border-crossing stamps, the registration page, marital status and children. Blank pages are noted too, so neither the notary nor the receiving institution can question whether the translation is complete.
In parallel, we check the Latin spelling of your first and last name against your foreign passport - the critical step for a passport, because a mismatch in even one letter breaks the whole document set. If the passport is translated together with a birth certificate or diploma, we bring the name to a single standard across all translations. Once translated, a certified translator signs the work and a notary certifies the authenticity of that signature - from 250 UAH depending on the number of pages. It is the notarisation that gives the translation official force in Ukraine and most countries.
If you need an apostille on a passport
When the document is submitted abroad via apostille, it is important to know that in Ukraine the apostille is issued by the relevant ministries - Justice, Foreign Affairs and Education - all located in Kyiv, not Kharkiv. We take care of the logistics: we accept the documents at our Sumska St office in Kharkiv, file them with the Kyiv ministries on your behalf and return the finished result.
An apostille costs from 950 UAH plus the state fee. The exact sequence - apostille on the original or on the translation - depends on the destination country, so we map out the route for your case free of charge before any work begins.
