Authorized translation plus notary certification of the signature — for documents with legal force in Moldova and Romania. Quote on request, fast turnaround, delivery to your door.
In a notarized translation, the notary does not verify the linguistic accuracy of the text. They officially confirm that the signature on the translation belongs to a translator authorized by the Ministry of Justice, whose signature specimen is on file at the notary office. Responsibility for the fidelity of the translation remains entirely with the authorized translator.
First the authorized translator translates the document, signs and stamps it, adding the certification formula. Only then does the notary apply the certification note, seal, and register the deed in the notarial register with a unique, verifiable number. A notarized translation is therefore an authorized translation to which the notarial certification of the signature has been added.
A notarized translation is required when the document has strong legal effects or is destined for a strict authority: courts, civil registry offices, embassies, banks, citizenship files, or studies abroad. For private employers or internal use, a simple authorized translation is usually enough — cheaper and faster.
Confusing the two costs money and lost days. Here is the exact difference, so you order it right the first time.
