FRENCH BIRTH CERTIFICATE TRANSLATION

Certified Translation of French Birth Certificates by a Chartered Translator

CERTIFIED TRANSLATION OF FRENCH BIRTH CERTIFICATES

Cost effective and quick turnaround for translation of your French birth certificates in the UK

Whether you were born in France and need a translation of your birth certificate, or you have a family member who was French, or maybe you are claiming entitlement to a inheritance or wishing to complete studies abroad, there are a host of reasons why you might need an official certified translation of a French birth certificate into English.

The one question which comes up time and time again, is whether my translations are certified and accepted by the UK authorities. 

In short, yes. In more detail, as a full member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists and Chartered Translator, as well as a qualified French translator, I issue a certification statement with each and every translation of a French birth certificate - guaranteeing that the translation is accepted and recognised in the UK by the official authorities. Peace of mind.

If you need to have your birth certificate translated, often you will ask many questions: who is authorised to issue a certified translation? What exactly is a certified translation? Can anybody translate my birth certificate? Is it safe to send my certificate to a translator? Do I need to send the original birth certificate by post? How much does it cost to translate a birth certificate? 

Each of these questions is valid and has a simple answer. So let's take a look at them all one by one to help you navigate the process. 

QUICK AND EASY CERTIFIED TRANSLATIONS OF FRENCH BIRTH CERTIFICATES BY A CHARTERED LINGUIST IN THE UK

What is a certified translation and who can do certified translations of French birth certificates?

The wording used can be quite daunting if you are not familiar with the translation sector. However, simply put, a certified translation is the equivalent of peace of mind that the translator is fully qualified and authorised to issue a translation which is recognised and accepted by the authorities. As a qualified translator, full member of the Chartered Institute of Linguists and Chartered Translator, here at French Medical Translators, I offer certified translations of French birth certificates. This means the translation is guaranteed to be accepted by the official authorities in the UK. 

Is it safe to send my birth certificate to a translator? And do I need the original copy of a French birth certificate for a certified translation?

In order to complete your French birth certificate translation, it is not actually necessary to have a copy of the original certificate. I am able to translate your certificate on the basis of a clear and legible scanned copy and/or photograph. As long as all details on the birth certificate are clearly visible and there is no doubt as to the validity of the document, I can produce the translation on this basis. Meaning a much quicker turnaround of your translation - since there is no need to post out your document. This also helps to keep costs down. 

I also respect all standards of data protection and your birth certificate will never be sent out to any third-parties. I produce all translations myself, and no documents are uploaded to internet translation tools. 

How much does it cost to translate a French birth certificate?

The cost of translating a French birth certificate will vary slightly depending on the number of words and the format of your document. Not all French-language certificates are issued in France. Birth certificates from Canada, Belgium, Congo, Cameroun, etc. may all be drafted in French. The format and number of words to translate will vary largely between all of these. However, within 1 hour following your quote request, I will take a look at your document and tell you (i) how long it will take to translate, and (ii) the total cost. 

Official certified translation of French birth certificates

As a Certified Translator and Chartered Linguist, all of our translations of your French birth certificates come with a signed and stamped letter for official use. This means that your French birth certificate translation can be submitted to the passport office, the UK government or any other official authority and will be accepted as a true and certified translation. 

What's more, we are usually able to offer certified translation of French birth certificates within 24 hours. 

All you need to do is send us a PDF, JPG or clearly legible photograph of your original birth certificate, and we will then issue your quote within 1 hour and take it from there.

THEY USED OUR CERTIFIED FRENCH BIRTH CERTIFICATE TRANSLATION SERVICES AND THIS IS WHAY THEY HAVE TO SAY...

We don't want you to take our word for it that our French to English translations are the best in the business. Read a selection of testimonials and reviews by some past clients.

One of, if not the, best interpreters I’ve worked with in well over a decade at a Premier League Football Club. His French translation is almost word-perfect in real time, while he’s able to build close but professional relationships with international players and clients alike, enabling him to help with not only legal and personal matters but also media interviews and tactical instructions. I can’t recommend highly enough and hope to get the opportunity to work with him again in the future.

Dan

Very diligent in his work and his translations have always been of an excellent quality. I would recommend him to anyone requiring such services.

Chris

Not only an excellent translator, but above all he is very professional. Punctual, precise, friendly.
Able to manage texts of laws, economy, health. Excellent in live translation.
I recommend it 100%
