Sworn translations

Sworn translations

Sworn translations represent a special category in the field of translation. A sworn translation has to be carried out by a sworn translator. In the Netherlands it is required that sworn translators have been sworn in by a court of law, after having completed the necessary training. Furthermore, they need to be registered with the Dutch Register for Sworn Interpreters and Translators (Rbtv).

A sworn translation may be needed when the translation is intended to be used as a legal and official document, e.g. emigration documents, birth certificates or divorce certificates. Furthermore, for banks and credit card companies and insurance companies sworn translations may also be required.
