Sworn OR legalised translations – what’s the difference?

Sworn translations display the signature and stamp of a translator who has been authorised to translate official documents by the Court of First Instance.

Legalised translations bear a stamp from the FPS Justice in addition to the translator’s signature.

In other words:

• Sworn translation = translator’s signature + stamp
• Legalisation = translator’s signature + FPS Justice stamp

A sworn translation will suffice in the majority cases. However, an additional FPS Justice legalisation is occasionally required. We therefore recommend checking with the relevant authority as to which version you require.
