NederlandsYour Reason
Flemish And Dutch Translation For UK Probate, Ofsted And Admissions
A probate registry wants heirs and shares. Ofsted wants dates and reference numbers. Pick your reason below to see how each Flemish or Dutch translation is shaped around the person who will actually read it.
Estates Handled By A Dutch Notary
A Dutch notary writes a verklaring van erfrecht to show who inherits. The probate registry in England and Wales needs it in English. Our probate translation for a Dutch estate keeps each heir, share and notary detail intact.
Usually sent
- Verklaring van erfrecht
- Overlijdensakte
- Testament
- Notary letter
Working With Children After Living Abroad
Ofsted, nurseries and schools often ask for proof of good conduct from every country you lived in. We translate the Dutch VOG or police letter with its numbers, dates and issuing office copied exactly as printed.
Usually sent
- VOG
- Police report
- Employer reference
University And College Admissions
Admissions teams often list four musts: an accuracy statement, the date, a named signer and contact details. Every page we send shows all four, so your diploma and grade list can go straight into the online application.
Usually sent
- VWO diploma
- Cijferlijst
- HBO bachelor diploma

IND Letters For A UK Visa File
A letter from the Dutch immigration service can explain a permit, a refusal or how long you lived there. A UK caseworker or solicitor may need it in English, signed with the translator's full name and our contact details.
Usually sent
- IND letter
- Residence permit
- Geboorteakte
- Huwelijksakte
Life Insurers And Pension Providers
Insurers such as Canada Life International publish their own translation guidance. Send that guidance with your Dutch bill or bank letter, and we work through each point it lists, from full text to the translator's details.
Usually sent
- Energy bill
- Bank letter
- Pension statement
NederlandsDutch Records
Akten, Erfrecht Papers And VOG Checks In Dutch Document Translation
These seven papers make up most of our Dutch work. Our Netherlands document translation runs line by line, from a one-page bill to a forty-page notarial deed. Anything missing here? Upload it all the same.
-
01
Geboorteakte
Gemeente Birth Record
Issued by the town hall where the birth was registered. We copy every name, date, place and official stamp, so it lines up with your passport for HMPO or UKVI.
-
02
Huwelijksakte
Gemeente Marriage Record
The town hall record of a marriage. It is often sent with birth records for a spouse visa, a name change or a new marriage in the UK.
-
03
Overlijdensakte
Death Record For Banks And Probate
Needed to close bank accounts, claim pensions or start probate. We translate the cause and place of death only where the record actually shows them.
-
04
Verklaring van erfrecht
Declaration Of Inheritance
A notary's statement naming the heirs and the executor. English solicitors use it to apply for a grant. Each clause keeps its number, so cross-references still work.
-
05
Verklaring Omtrent het Gedrag
Certificate Of Good Conduct
The Dutch conduct check, known as a VOG. It names the job it was issued for. We keep that wording, because UK employers read it closely.
-
06
Diploma en cijferlijst
Diploma And Grade List
Dutch grades run from 1 to 10, with 5.5 as a usual pass. We keep the numbers as printed and add the scale once, so admissions staff read them correctly.
-
07
Medisch dossier
Medical File
Hospital notes, scan reports and GP letters. Our private medical file translation can follow a signed NDA when an employer or production company needs one first.
NederlandsNotary Words
Official Dutch Translation Terms Our Linguists Handle
Dutch civil and notary papers repeat the same short terms. Each one has a settled English rendering in our files. This list shows a few, so you know how your Dutch certificate translation will read.
| Nederlands term | In English | Good to know |
|---|---|---|
| Burgerlijke stand | Civil registry | The town hall department that records births, marriages and deaths. |
| Ambtenaar van de burgerlijke stand | Registrar | The official who signs Dutch civil records. |
| Uittreksel BRP | Extract from the Personal Records Database | Shows address history and family details. |
| Notaris | Civil-law notary | Drafts deeds and inheritance papers; not the same as a UK notary. |
| Nalatenschap | Estate | Everything a person leaves behind after death. |
| Rijksregisternummer | National Register number | Belgium's personal ID number, shown on Flemish records. |
| Beëdigd vertaler | Sworn translator | Registered in the Netherlands; UK offices do not require one. |
A Scan And A Deadline Is Enough

NederlandsWhere It Is From
Netherlands Or Flanders: Certified Dutch Translation By Region
Dutch is written in four quite different paper systems. Official wording shifts between them, and a careless match causes confusion. A professional Dutch translator follows the source system and explains local terms once, in brackets.
-
01
The Netherlands
Civil records come from the gemeente, and many are now printouts from the BRP database. Notaries write wills and inheritance papers. We keep office names in Dutch with a short English meaning.
-
02
Flanders And Brussels
Belgian papers carry a Rijksregisternummer and some words not used in the Netherlands. Brussels records often print Dutch and French side by side. We translate the filled-in details once, not twice.
-
03
Suriname
Surinamese civil records are in Dutch, but some names and places follow local spelling. We keep the record's version and, if your passport differs, footnote the difference for the reader.
-
04
Aruba, Curaçao And Sint Maarten
Records from the Dutch Caribbean are mostly Dutch, with some Papiamento or English wording. Mixed parts are all translated, and we note where a term has no English match.

Dutch Translations Of English Contracts, Degrees And Prenups
Some customers move the other way, into the Netherlands or Belgium. Our Dutch translation agency covers personal and company papers. When a Dutch office wants extra proof, we can add notary and apostille steps.
-
EN Nederlands
Prenuptial Agreements
A Dutch partner or notary may want your prenup in Dutch. Long agreements are translated in full, with clause numbers unchanged. We can arrange notarised translation for Dutch authorities as well.
-
EN Nederlands
Service Contracts And Work Orders
Master agreements and statements of work can go into Dutch and German together. One translator keeps both versions in step, and our commercial contract translation team checks defined terms.
-
EN Nederlands
British Degrees And Certificates
A Dutch employer or university may ask for your UK degree and transcript in Dutch. We keep module titles, classifications and dates clear, so the reader can compare them.
