WHAT IS LEGAL & BUSINESS TRANSLATION?

Translating Legal & Business Documents

Legal and business documents, contracts, corporate filings, court documents, regulatory submissions, carry real consequences if a translation is inaccurate or informal. Courts, regulators, and foreign business partners typically expect a translation completed by a certified translator, with a stamp and signature confirming its accuracy, rather than an in-house or machine translation.

Which Type of Translation Fits a Legal or Business Document?

Documents being submitted to a court, regulator, or foreign business registry typically require a Certified Translation, from $99 per document, since the receiving party needs a verifiable, accredited translator's stamp. For internal or informational translations not being formally submitted anywhere, our Standard Translation, from $49 per page, is often sufficient. If you're unsure which applies to your situation, let us know what the translation is for and we'll confirm.

COMMON REASONS CLIENTS NEED THIS

Why Clients Translate Their Legal & Business Document

International Contracts

Cross-border agreements often need a certified translation so all parties, and any court that might later review the contract, can rely on an accurate version.

Foreign Business Registration

Registering a Canadian company abroad, or a foreign company in Canada, often requires certified translations of incorporation and registration documents.

Court & Legal Proceedings

Documents submitted to a Canadian or foreign court typically require a certified translation to be admissible.

Regulatory Filings

Compliance and regulatory submissions in another language often require certified translation before a regulator will accept them.

Cross-Border Mergers & Acquisitions

Due diligence and transaction documents frequently need certified translation when deal parties operate in different languages.

AVOID THESE DELAYS

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Using Standard Translation when Certified is required

Courts and regulators typically require a certified translator's stamp, not just a company stamp. Confirm the requirement before ordering.

Treating an internal translation the same as a submission translation

A quick internal translation for your own team doesn't need the same certification as one being filed with a court or regulator, but mixing them up can mean overpaying or under-delivering.

Not confirming the receiving jurisdiction's format requirements

Different countries and institutions can have different expectations for how a certified translation should be presented. Check before you submit.

Forgetting the original document may also need an apostille

A translated corporate document often still needs the original apostilled separately for it to be recognized abroad.

SIMPLE PRICING

Three Types of Translation, So You Only Pay for What You Need

Not every document needs the same level of certification. We offer three types of translation so you can match the right one to what your receiving institution actually requires, rather than overpaying for more than you need.
