In brief, before the detail — language rules: English-speaking destinations usually accept a certified English translation, while Schengen states, Japan, Korea and China may require the official language of that country or a translator recognised by that embassy. We verify the destination's current requirement before translation begins so nothing has to be redone. Send scans to LINE @NAATI or contact@naati.ltd and our team will confirm the document set and certification route before any work starts.
