What You Receive
A Translation Built to Be Accepted
Every certified translation includes a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy on letterhead, stating that the translation is complete and faithful to the original. The translation itself mirrors your document page for page — stamps, seals and signatures preserved or clearly noted — so the receiving authority sees exactly what was issued.
- Signed Certificate of Accuracy: included with every order, print-ready.
- Mirror Layout: the translation follows the original page by page.
- Fast Turnaround: standard documents typically delivered in 24–48 hours, as PDF.
Please note: certified is not sworn
A certified translation comes with a translator's signed Certificate of Accuracy — the format used in the US, Canada and the UK. A sworn translation (traduction assermentée) is produced by a translator appointed by a court — a separate system used in countries such as France, Belgium, Spain and Morocco.
Crafted Translation provides certified translations, not sworn translations. Every certificate is personally signed by our founder, a ProZ Certified PRO translator. If the authority receiving your document specifically requires a sworn translation, please confirm their requirements before ordering.
Documents We Certify
Certified translation for personal, academic and legal documents in Arabic, French, Russian and English — including regional variants (FR-CA, FR-FR, FR-BE, EN-US, EN-UK).
Academic
Diplomas, degrees, transcripts and attestations for university admissions, credential evaluation and professional licensing.
Legal & Notarial
Court filings and judgments, apostilles, notarial acts, contracts and powers of attorney — with procedural structure and captions preserved.
How It Works
Send Your Document
A scan or clear photo is enough — PDF or image. You receive a quote and delivery time, usually within the hour.
Translation & Layout
The document is translated and rebuilt to mirror the original page for page, with stamps, seals and signatures preserved or clearly noted.
Certified Delivery
You receive the translation with the signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy as a print-ready PDF — typically within 24–48 hours.
Why It Matters
Why the Details Decide Acceptance
Authorities reviewing your file compare the translation against the original. A translation that mirrors the source — same pagination, same structure, every stamp accounted for — makes that review effortless and leaves no room for doubt.
Complete and Faithful
Everything on the page is translated or noted — including stamps, seals, handwritten mentions and marginal annotations. Nothing is silently omitted.
Consistent Terminology
Legal and civil-status terminology is applied consistently, jurisdiction by jurisdiction — Canadian French is not French French, and the difference matters.
Confidential by Design
Your documents are handled under direct founder oversight — never passed through anonymous chains of subcontractors. Files are treated as strictly confidential.
