Preparing documents for use abroad is a task that requires not only accurate translation but also compliance with numerous formal requirements. Each country has its own set of demands for such documents, and it can be difficult to navigate them without professional help. Understanding this, at Etalon Translation Bureau, we offer solutions even for the most complex and non-standard tasks. In addition to our core services, our team is ready to take on document certification, handling each request with utmost coordination, efficiency, and a results-oriented approach.
We work with translations of any complexity and specialization
Our translation bureau in Odesa offers services for translating personal documents such as passports, birth certificates, marriage certificates, diplomas, and academic records. We strictly adhere to all formatting requirements, ensuring that documents are easily recognized by official authorities both in Ukraine and abroad. Upon request, we can also handle the retrieval of documents from state institutions for subsequent translation and legalization, working efficiently and without unnecessary delays.
We also offer translation into Greek of technical, medical, and legal texts that require a deep understanding of terminology and industry standards. We work with instructions, medical reports, contracts, court decisions, and other similar documents, strictly following the correct terminology. Each translation is performed by subject matter experts who carefully review their work to ensure there are no mistakes or inaccuracies.
Additional services — solutions for all occasions
Our translation bureau in Odesa is not limited to just language services. We also provide document certification and legalization. We take a comprehensive approach to each task, involving the necessary number of qualified staff to help you avoid wasting time on unnecessary bureaucracy.
Apostille
An apostille is an internationally recognized stamp that certifies the authenticity of a document issued by a country that has signed the Hague Convention. It is placed on original documents or notarized copies of official documents, such as certificates, diplomas, or powers of attorney, making them valid abroad.
Criminal Record Certificate
Our translation bureau in Odesa handles criminal record certificates, which confirm the absence of a criminal record and are required for visa applications, citizenship, immigration, or employment abroad. The certificate is issued by state authorities and must be translated into the language of the destination country.
Sworn Translation
A sworn translation is an officially certified translation into English or any other language upon request, confirming the legal validity of the submitted documents. It is carried out by a licensed translator and is required for submission to embassies, courts, government authorities, or foreign companies for both private and commercial purposes.
Consular Legalization
Consular legalization is the process of certifying a document for use in countries that are not part of the Hague Convention. This procedure involves confirming the authenticity of the document with the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and the consulate of the destination country.
The cost of our services — what it depends on
When performing document translation in Odesa, we offer competitive prices, providing an estimate based on the following factors:
- Document type. Translating personal documents is usually cheaper than preparing complex technical or legal texts.
- Volume of text. The price is directly affected by the length of the text, calculated based on the number of pages or total character count.
- Language pair. Rare languages cost more than popular ones, requiring specialized translators.
- Urgency. A rush translation of documents in Odesa is more expensive because it involves multiple staff working simultaneously.
- Additional services. Extra services, such as document certification or apostille, are charged separately.
- Format. Working with handwritten text, tables, or non-standard formatting is more complex and requires additional costs.
