Legal Translation

Legal documents demand precision, consistency, and a deep understanding of legal terminology. Prozmart connects clients with experienced legal translators who work across more than 200 languages and understand the linguistic and procedural requirements of legal communication.

Each project is handled by linguists who specialise in legal subject matter and who are familiar with the terminology and formatting expected in different jurisdictions.

If a document carries legal significance or must be submitted to an authority, our specialists can ensure the translated version meets the required standards.
Certified translations for official submissions
Many government agencies, courts, universities, and regulatory bodies require certified translations when documents are submitted in another language. Even when an individual understands both languages, authorities usually insist on an independent translation completed by a qualified professional.
Prozmart offers several forms of translation certification depending on the requirements of the requesting authority. Before ordering, clients are advised to confirm the type of certification accepted by the relevant organisation.
Digital certification
Digital certification confirms that a professional translation has been completed by a qualified linguist through Prozmart.
The translated document is accompanied by a signed certification statement verifying that the translation accurately reflects the original text. Each page of the translated document can also be stamped or marked where required.
Certified translations are typically delivered electronically, although physical copies may be arranged when necessary.
Notarised or sworn translation
Some institutions require translations that are notarised. In this case, the completed translation is signed and stamped by a Notary Public who verifies the authenticity of the translator's certification.
A notarised translation confirms that the translation was prepared by a professional translator and that the certification has been formally witnessed by an authorised legal official.
The notarisation process does not verify the authenticity of the original document; it confirms the legitimacy of the translation and the certification attached to it.
Legalisation and additional authentication
In certain circumstances, an additional layer of verification is required after notarisation. This process confirms that the notarised translation is valid for submission to specific government or international authorities.
Where such verification is required, Prozmart can assist in arranging the appropriate legalisation procedures depending on the destination country or institution.
Our legal linguists
Legal translation requires more than language proficiency. It requires familiarity with legal terminology, document structure, and procedural expectations.
Prozmart works with translators who have proven experience in legal translation and relevant academic or professional backgrounds. Projects are assigned to linguists whose expertise aligns with the subject matter of the document.
To maintain quality and reliability, translators are regularly evaluated based on:
- Accuracy and completeness
- Consistency of terminology
- Knowledge of legal vocabulary
- Formatting and document structure
- Compliance with client requirements
Each project is also overseen by a dedicated project manager who coordinates the translation process and ensures deadlines are met.

Translations are typically priced per source word in the original document, while proofreading or revision services may be calculated hourly.
