Certified document translation
Certified translations of official documents, accepted by Peruvian and foreign institutions.
A certified translation is a complete, faithful translation of a document, signed and stamped by an accredited translator, which the receiving institution accepts as equivalent to the original. We prepare it in the format each country and institution requires: certified translation by a registered translator, official translation for procedures in Peru, sworn translation for Spain, certificate of accuracy for the United States (e.g. USCIS), and more.

Frequently asked questions
What is an official translation in Peru?
Some procedures in Peru require an official translation or one by a sworn public translator; for others a certified translation by a registered translator is enough. We confirm which one you need.
Is a translation made in Peru valid abroad?
It depends on the country. Some accept certified translations from anywhere; others require translators sworn or registered in their territory. We advise you based on the destination.
Does the apostille need translating too?
Yes, in most cases the apostille must also be translated. That's why documents are usually apostilled first and translated afterwards.
