Frequently Asked Questions

Why are legal translations priced differently?

When it comes to legal translation services, the translation process is more detailed, which entails stricter requirements for knowledge and experience. In some industries (e.g. medicine, engineering), the translators may need to be well-versed in the industry they are translating for.

As the name implies, legal translations involve legal procedures. If a mistake is spotted, it may lead to legal disputes. Some notable legal translations in Singapore may include applications for work pass permits, immigration documents, and workplace contracts.

What makes legal translation harder to perform?

Legal translation services are harder to perform because the translator must have excellent skills and deep knowledge of international standards, legislation, and law.

For this reason, those providing the translation services must be proficient in the following “languages”: the document’s original language, the target language, and the technical language for both.

How can you tell if the document is an official translation?

An official translation of documents usually includes some form of proof (e.g. a stamp). Alternatively, it's accompanied by a certificate or statement by the official language translator. This applies to all countries, including Singapore.

This certificate or contract confirms the accuracy of the translation work and that the work is easily understandable. It also formally declares that the content has been translated to the translator’s best abilities.
