Cheers

Charges no doubt vary, but the s

Since the beginning of this year I have several times been asked to produce sworn translations of Russian marriage, birth, divorce and other certificates.

I have to go to a solicitor with the translation, swear before the solicitor that it is a true translation, get the affidavit and the translation stamped and post them off. Charges no doubt vary, but the solicitor I use only charges nine pounds (recoverable from the agency of course). Maybe this would be acceptable to your client.

The answers may be helpful to you. It is best to ask the client exactly what they mean but usually swearing an affidavit before a solicitor is enough, even if the translation is to be used in civil law jurisdictions.
Best wishes, Aisha
