Notarized Document Translation in Moscow

Notarized Document Translation: Full Cycle in 2 Hours

Notarized translation is a document translated by a qualified translator and certified by a notary's signature and seal. The notary verifies the translator's identity and qualifications, not the translation content itself. Once certified, the document has full legal force for submission to government agencies, courts, and consulates.

At Translation Agency "Universal", the notary works in-house — you don't need to visit a separate notary office. We translate the document, certify it on-site, and deliver by courier. The entire process — from receiving a scan to the finished translation — takes from 2 hours.
