Notarized translation: just a translation with a stamp?
Notarized vs. regular translation in a 30-second video
Video transcript
Myth or fact? A notarized translation is just a translation with a stamp? Myth. The notary certifies that the translation itself is correct. With a translator's affidavit, the notary only certifies the declaration, and a regular translation carries no certification at all. The body receiving the document decides which type of translation it needs, so ask it for the requirement in writing.
Full explanation: Certified notarial translation or ordinary translation: what is the difference, and when do you need each?. The difference between an ordinary translation, a translator's declaration before a notary and a certified notarial translation: what each one certifies, when each is suitable, and who decides which you need. Based on the Notaries Law and its regulations.
