Translation for Law Firms and Corporates in Singapore

How a job runs

1. Instruction. You send the documents and tell us the matter type, the languages, the deadline and where the translation will be filed. We reply with a written quotation.
2. Translate and check. A translator with experience in your subject translates. A second linguist checks the translation against the source for accuracy, terminology and consistency.
3. Affidavit, where required. The translator swears a translator’s affidavit before a Commissioner for Oaths.
4. Notarisation and apostille, where required. We arrange notarisation with the Singapore Academy of Law (SAL) apostille. For countries outside the Apostille Convention, embassy or consulate legalisation follows; embassy fees are not included and are quoted individually (check the member list).
5. Delivery. Softcopy and hardcopy, laid out to match the original.

Up to 2,000 words (or part) is translated within 8 business hours. Hardcopy follows within 1 business hour of your approval, and notarisation and apostille within 8 business hours of your approval. Business hours are 9 am to 5 pm, Monday to Friday, excluding Singapore public holidays. The clock starts when your quotation is confirmed and payment is verified. See Delivery and Collection for costs and delivery options.

Translator’s affidavit and notarisation

Where a court or authority needs a translator’s affidavit, the translator swears it before a Commissioner for Oaths. Video link is allowed, but the translator must be physically in Singapore when signing. Notary and Singapore Academy of Law fees are regulated by law and passed on at cost, with no mark-up by us (Notaries Public Rules, SAL fees). See Sworn translator in Singapore.
