Professional Translation Services

Eureka Translations provides professional translation services in Singapore for organisations and individuals, across legal, financial, medical, technical and corporate work. Whether you need one certified document or ongoing multilingual support, our linguists deliver translations that are accurate, culturally appropriate and ready for your audience.

Our process

1. Consultation — We confirm your document type, language pair and certification requirements.
2. Translation — A linguist with experience in your subject translates the document.
3. Proofreading — A second linguist checks the translation against the source for accuracy, terminology and tone.
4. Editing — A native speaker of the target language refines the text so it reads naturally.
5. Delivery — Certified copies are provided where required, with confidentiality maintained throughout.

Industries We Serve

Each project is matched to a translator with the right subject experience, across Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Malay, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, and major European languages.

Legal

Contracts, affidavits, court documents, and certified legal translations. A single mistranslated clause can change an agreement’s meaning or enforceability, so legal files go to translators familiar with the relevant legal system.

Financial and ACRA Filings

Financial statements, audit reports and compliance documents. Foreign-language documents filed with ACRA must be translated by an ACRA-approved translator under the Companies Regulations. Our team includes an ACRA-approved translator, so your constitutions, resolutions and incorporation documents meet this requirement.

Medical

Medical translation of clinical records, prescriptions, medical reports and patient documents, where terminology and dosage accuracy are critical.

Technical

Manuals, specifications and engineering documents, translated with consistent terminology across the whole document set. We can work from your existing glossaries.

Corporate

Business correspondence, marketing materials and HR documents, keeping your brand consistent in every market.

Personal and Immigration Documents

Birth and marriage certificates, transcripts and identity documents are among the most frequently translated documents in Singapore. Tell us where you’re submitting, and we’ll prepare the certification to that authority’s requirements.

Certified, Sworn, and Notarised Translation

Singapore has no general register of sworn translators. Outside ACRA filings, a certified translation relies on the translator who signs the declaration, so qualifications matter.

Affidavits and notarisation are handled by translators with formal qualifications, from a specialist certificate or graduate diploma in translation to a Master of Arts in Translation and Interpretation, who can personally swear or affirm their work.

General commercial and technical work is handled by experienced translators matched to your subject, so you don’t pay for sworn-level credentials you don’t need.

Where required, we arrange notarisation by a Notary Public and authentication by the Singapore Academy of Law. Tell us where your document is going, and we’ll confirm the right level before quoting.

Human Translation vs Machine Translation

Machine and AI translation is fast and inexpensive, but it struggles with idioms, ambiguity, industry jargon, and grammar that has no direct equivalent. Those errors can quietly distort legal or specialised content. Professional translators read for context, query ambiguities instead of guessing, and produce text that reads as if it were written in the target language. For certified, legal and medical work, human translation is essential.
