Translate before or after legalisation? The thousand-franc question

It's the question that sinks the most self-assembled files. Some countries want the apostille on the original document, then a certified translation of the whole (document + apostille). Others require the translation itself to be legalised. Others still want both. Get it wrong and you start over — consular timelines included. Because both trades live under our roof, the order is never a gamble.

Our certified translations are issued by ABC Translation Sàrl and recognised by Swiss and foreign authorities. They carry a statement of conformity, stamp and the translator's signature — and can, precisely for that reason, be legalised and apostilled where the country requires it. Switzerland has no «sworn translator» in the French sense; the certified translation with a notarially legalised signature is the functional equivalent foreign authorities accept.

Frequently asked questions

Are your translations «sworn»?
Switzerland works with certified translations whose translator's signature can be notarially legalised and then apostilled — the functional equivalent foreign authorities require. That is exactly what we produce.
Which languages do you offer?
All the usual languages of international procedures: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, and others on request.
Does the price depend on page count?
Yes, for the translation part — the online quote calculates by document; legalisation is per deed. Everything shows before payment, Swiss postage included.
Can I have an already-apostilled document translated?
Of course: we translate the document and its apostille (often required) and, if your country demands it, have the translation legalised as well.
