Certified Translation in Georgia: Legally Recognized Services for Every Need

Whether you are applying for a visa, submitting documents to a Georgian court, or enrolling in a university abroad, certified translation is a mandatory requirement. Suliko provides professional certified translation services across all major language pairs, accepted by public institutions throughout Georgia and internationally.

What Is Certified Translation?

Certified translation is a document translation accompanied by a formal statement — signed and stamped by a qualified translator or translation bureau — confirming that the translation is complete and accurate. In Georgia, certified translations are required by the Ministry of Justice, courts, embassies, universities, and notary offices.

Unlike a standard translation, a certified translation carries legal weight. It can be submitted directly to official bodies as a legally recognized equivalent of the original document.

When Do You Need Certified Translation in Georgia?

You will typically need a certified translation when submitting the following documents to Georgian or foreign authorities:

• Personal identification documents — passports, birth certificates, marriage and divorce certificates, identity cards
• Educational credentials — diplomas, academic transcripts, certificates of completion, professional licenses
• Legal documents — court orders, powers of attorney, notarial deeds, criminal record certificates, affidavits
• Medical records — hospital summaries, medical certificates, vaccination records, insurance documents
• Business documents — company registration certificates, contracts, articles of association, financial statements

Certified vs. Notarized Translation: What Is the Difference?

These two terms are often confused, but they are distinct:

• A certified translation is signed by the translator, who attests that the translation is accurate and complete. Most government agencies and universities accept certified translations.
• A notarized translation goes one step further — the translator's signature is verified by a notary public, providing an additional layer of legal authentication. Some courts and embassies specifically require notarized translations.

Suliko provides both certified and notarized translations, and our team will advise you on exactly which level of authentication your documents require.
