Document Translation
Written translation of documents between language pairs we can cover competently. Where a document is highly technical, legal or medical, we will say so and decline rather than guess at terminology we do not command.

Translation and interpreting
Document translation, certified translation, Welsh and English, interpreting, proofreading and revision, and transcription.
Certified Translation
A translation accompanied by a signed, dated statement that it is a true and accurate translation of the document supplied, with our details. That is what certification means in the UK. It is not a sworn, official or government-approved status, and we never describe it as one.
Welsh <> English
Cyfieithu rhwng y Gymraeg a’r Saesneg. Translation between Welsh and English, including correspondence conducted entirely in Welsh if you prefer. Mae croeso i chi ysgrifennu atom yn Gymraeg.
Interpreting
Spoken interpreting for meetings and appointments, booked in advance with the subject matter and duration agreed. We do not claim registration for court, police or other public-service interpreting, which has its own registration and framework requirements.
Proofreading & Revision
Checking an existing translation against its source for accuracy, completeness and consistency, or proofreading a text in a single language. Revision is quoted separately from translation because it is a different job.
Transcription
Transcription of recorded speech into written text, in the same language or with a translation supplied alongside it. Audio quality governs what is possible, and inaudible passages are marked as inaudible rather than guessed.
Can you notarise or legalise my document?
No, and nor can any translator. Swearing or notarising a statement is work for a solicitor or a notary public. Legalisation with an apostille is done by the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office. We can tell you which you need and prepare the translation so it fits.
