Frequently Asked Questions
How much does a sworn translation cost?
Pricing depends on the type of document, the number of pages and the desired turnaround time. Send the document via WhatsApp or email to receive a no-obligation quote.
What is the delivery time?
Simple documents are usually ready within a few business days. Longer or urgent documents have their turnaround agreed upon at the time of the quote, depending on availability.
Do I need to send the original document, or is a scanned copy enough?
In most cases, a clear, good-quality scanned copy is enough to produce the translation. Whether the original must be presented depends on the requirements of the receiving institution.
Is the sworn translation accepted in other countries?
Yes, as long as the receiving institution accepts translations produced by a Brazilian sworn public translator. In some cases an apostille or additional legalization may be required — this guidance is provided during the quote process.
Which languages are covered?
Service is provided for the Portuguese-English language pair, in both directions: translating documents from Portuguese into English and from English into Portuguese.
Do you also provide interpretation for hearings and meetings?
Yes. In addition to document translation, interpretation services are offered for hearings, depositions, corporate meetings and international negotiations.
How will I receive the translated document?
Delivery can be made on letterhead with notarized signature, picked up or sent by mail, or as a certified digital version, depending on the requirements of the receiving institution.
Can I also get legal advice on the subject matter of the document?
Yes. By combining the practice of sworn translator with that of international lawyer, guidance can be provided on the legal aspects involved in the document, when needed.
