About Our Network of Certified German Translators
We’re not a typical translation agency. Each member of our network holds formal accreditation under UK and German regulations, meaning our certified German translations are accepted by courts, government departments, universities and private organisations—without extra checks. Although we’re based in the UK, our translators live and work throughout Germany, from Berlin and Munich to Hamburg and Frankfurt. That means you benefit from genuine local expertise, whether your documents originated in Germany or you simply need native-level accuracy in German.
Certified Translators
Hold recognised credentials to produce translations accepted by German authorities and UK institutions.
Sworn Translators (Öffentlich bestellte Übersetzer)
Have taken a sworn oath before a German court and can add their official seal and signature to your documents.
Notarised Translation Partners
Work directly with UK notaries to obtain apostilles or additional notary stamps for legal use abroad.
By combining our collective expertise, every project receives careful peer review and professional proofreading. Your privacy matters: we follow strict GDPR protocols and protect your data at every step. Our transparent pricing means you know exactly what to expect—no hidden fees, no surprises.

Our Core Services
Certified German Translation
When you need documents that UK or German authorities will accept instantly, our certified German translation is the solution. We mirror every detail of your original—names, dates, formatting and punctuation—and after translating, your document receives an official stamp and signature from a certified translator. Common documents include birth, marriage and death certificates; academic transcripts and diplomas; property deeds and contracts; and police clearances.
Sworn German Translation
For court cases, immigration filings or any formal legal matter in Germany or the UK, you require a sworn translation by an Öffentlich bestellter Übersetzer. Our sworn translators are appointed by German courts and each translation comes with a formal declaration so it’s ready for submission to tribunals, administrative offices and embassies. Ideal for affidavits, visa documents and official government filings, our service guarantees legal compliance and rapid turnaround.
Notarised Translation Support
Sometimes a certified or sworn German translation needs extra proof—such as an apostille or a UK notary stamp—especially if those documents are destined for overseas authorities. We coordinate appointments with notaries, handle all paperwork and secure the apostille so your papers are recognised without question. Whether it’s for embassy submissions or foreign legal proceedings, rely on us for seamless notarised translation support.
German Transcription Services
If you have an audio or video file in German, our transcription services are fast, accurate and cost-effective. We offer verbatim transcripts that capture every word—including pauses and filler phrases—for legal or research purposes; clean transcripts where we remove “ähm” and “hm,” correct obvious mispronunciations and label speakers; and time-coded versions perfect for court depositions, academic studies or media projects. Our transcribers understand regional accents—whether Bavarian, Austrian or Swiss German—and can handle technical vocabularies in fields such as medicine, law or engineering.
German Interpreting Services
For live communication—whether in business negotiations, court hearings or medical consultations—our German interpreters ensure nothing is lost in translation. We provide on-site interpreting for conferences, negotiations and official visits; remote interpreting via video or telephone when in-person isn’t possible; and escort interpreting to accompany you during site visits or factory tours. Each interpreter holds a degree or professional diploma in interpretation and specialises in both simultaneous and consecutive modes across legal, medical and corporate contexts.
