Legal translations
Translation of contracts, agreements and other legal documents, with terminology tailored to the subject matter and intended use.

Misinterpretations or inaccuracies in legal translations can result in disputes, financial losses, and significant compliance issues.
Our mission is to ensure your documents are translated with accuracy and to safeguard any sensitive information.

Choosing our services means entrusting your legal documents to qualified translators who are proficient in law and linguistics. We have extensive experience translating various legal documents— from legislation and judgments to contracts and agreements—ensuring accuracy and reliability.
Avoid the risk of legal misunderstandings that could lead to costly disputes and litigation.

Yes. We can assist with notarisation by a Norwegian Notary Public and an apostille issued by the County Governor (Statsforvalteren) as part of a translation assignment.
The requirements depend on the document, the destination country and the receiving organisation. Not all documents require these additional certifications.
An apostille authenticates an official signature, the capacity in which the person signed and, where applicable, the seal or stamp. It does not verify the document’s contents or the quality of the translation. Translations normally require notarisation before an apostille can be issued.
For countries outside the apostille system, legalisation by the Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and certification by the destination country’s embassy may be required.
Send us your document and any requirements from the receiving organisation. We will clarify how we can help, the cost and the expected processing time.
