certified translator

Accredited language professional

A certified translator is a professional who has been officially recognized—typically by a government body, professional association, or accrediting organization—as qualified to translate documents between languages.

The certification process usually involves examinations testing language proficiency and translation skills.

Certified translators are often required for legal, immigration, and official documents where accuracy must be guaranteed: The embassy requires all documents to be handled by a certified translator.
