Italian translation services for Visa applicants

italy-visa-translation

While applying for a visa you generally have to attach many supportive documents such as personal, financial or education certificates. If any of these documents are in Italian language, then you will most probably need a translated version of that document. We provide excellent Italian translation services for Visa related documents. We translate from Italian into every major language of the world and vice versa.

When will you need a UK Visa

If you are visiting the United Kingdom and are citizen of a Italian speaking country outside the EU or EEA, you will most probably need a UK visa. However you won't need a UK visa if you are citizen of a country that is exempted from needing a UK Visa.

There are different types of UK Visas and the purpose of your visit will determine the type of Visa you will require. Please keep in mind that the Government of United Kingdom has very stringent visa laws. So once you have planned to visit the UK, its best to plan ahead and obtain the right type of Visa before making any travel bookings.

Along with your Visa application you will have to submit many supportive documents. It is very much possible that these documents were originally written in the Italian language if they were made in any of these countries: Italy, Romania, France, Switzerland, Croatia, Australia, Brazil, San Marino, Sovereign Military Order of Malta, Somalia, Monaco, Slovenia, Bosnia, Herzegovina or Vatican City.

Certified Translation of supporting documents while applying for a UK Visa

According to the Government of United Kingdom, all supportive documents should be originally written in either English or Welsh languages. If they are written in any other language such as Italian, then they must be accompanied by a full English or Welsh translation, which can be independently verified by the Home Office. Further as specified by the Government of UK, all such translation documents should be proper certified translations.

What is a certified translation?

To certify and translate a document that is not written in English or Welsh, the translation company should confirm in writing on the translation:

  1. That it’s a ‘true and accurate translation of the original document’,
  2. The date of the translation, and
  3. The full name and contact details of the translator or a representative of the translation company.
