About Us

Because you deserve to know who is handling your papers.

Who We Are

UK Certified Translators is a certified translation company based in Birmingham, working for people right across the United Kingdom. We put foreign documents into English for visas, passports, weddings, court cases, university places, jobs and medical care.

Most people who write to us are worried about something. A biometric appointment on Thursday. A wedding date the registrar will not hold. A file that came back once already and nobody explained why. Our job is to take that one worry off the list.

Every translation we send out is signed, stamped and dated. It carries the name of the linguist who did the work, their qualifications and a UK phone number that a real person answers. That is what an office needs in order to check it, and it is why we print it instead of hiding behind a company stamp.

Our Certified Document Translation Services

These are the personal documents we handle most. Each one has its own page explaining what the reader is actually checking, because a passport office, a registrar and a visa caseworker all look for different things.

Professional Translation Services for All Industries

We also work for companies, law firms, clinics and agencies. This side of the business runs on the same rules, with a subject specialist on every file rather than one linguist covering everything.

Where We Provide Our Translation Services in the UK

We cover every city and town in the United Kingdom, from Cornwall to the Highlands. Everything is handled online, so where you live makes no difference to the price or the turnaround. Below are a few of the cities we work in most, and each page explains what the local offices in that area ask for.

How We Work on Your Documents

The process is short on purpose. You send, we price, we deliver, and one person stays with your file the whole way through.

  • You keep your originals. A clear photo or scan is all we work from. Nothing is posted to us.
  • One fixed price, agreed first. The stamp and the emailed copy are already in it. Nothing is added at the end.
  • Two people read every file. A qualified linguist does the work and a second one checks it against your original before anything is signed.
  • Human linguists only. Machine output fails on stamps, seals and handwritten notes, which is exactly what UK offices look at first.
  • If an office queries it, we fix it free. Send us their wording and we correct and reissue at our cost.
  • Your papers stay private. One linguist and one checker open them. Nothing is kept as a sample or passed to a network abroad.

Things We Will Not Do

Plenty of companies will sell you whatever you ask for. We would rather tell you the truth and take a smaller order.

  • We do not claim to be Home Office approved. No such scheme exists. The guidance asks for a certified translation that somebody can independently verify, and that is what we provide.
  • We do not sell notarisation you do not need. For UKVI, the Passport Office, the DVLA, universities and UK courts, certification alone is enough. Send us the wording you were given and we will read it first.
  • We do not convert your grades. Deciding what a foreign mark is worth in the UK is the job of ECCTIS. We reproduce the marking scale exactly as your university printed it.
  • We do not quietly correct names. Where a document spells a name differently, we show what is written and explain the difference, so your papers still agree with each other.
  • We do not guess. If a word is genuinely unreadable it is marked as illegible rather than invented, which is what an official reader expects to see.

Our Vision

We want to be the name people pass to a friend when a document has been sent back and nobody knows why. Not the cheapest and not the loudest, just the one that explains the problem properly and then fixes it.

Our Mission

Our mission is simple. Take the paperwork worry off people who already have enough to deal with. That means a clear price before you commit, an honest answer about whether your deadline can be met, and a document that goes through the first time.

Contact Us

Message us before you order rather than after. Tell us which office is reading your papers and when you need them, and you will get a straight answer, including when the answer is that we cannot make your deadline.
