UK Organisations and Bodies That May Require Certified Translations

Certified translations may be requested by UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI), the Home Office, UK ENIC, HM Courts & Tribunals Service (HMCTS), courts and tribunals, solicitors, barristers, universities, professional bodies, banks, employers, local authorities and other organisations.

For example, UK ENIC states that certified translations may be required for qualification documents that are not in English, although eligible applicants with Russian-language qualifications can currently use its Translation Waiver Service for a Statement of Comparability.

UK courts may also require accurate translations of foreign-language evidence and legal documents. Certain Civil Procedure Rules specifically provide for translations accompanied by confirmation of accuracy or certification in particular circumstances.

For immigration-related matters, professional translation is also an important part of preparing documents for applications. Official guidance for immigration advisers requires relevant documents to be translated into English by a suitable translator.

The process is simple. Send us a clear scan, photograph or PDF of your Russian document, tell us which organisation will receive the translation and provide any specific instructions you have been given.
