Dienstleistungsbeschreibung
Translator - Request authorisation
If you want to translate official deeds or documents in Germany, especially for courts, notaries or authorities, and work as a translator, then you need a special professional qualification as a translator. And you need to be authorised as a translator by the competent court. The authorisation is a kind of public appointment, which is a special recognition of knowledge for this special translation activity in the field of the administration of justice.
As a translator, you translate exclusively in writing from German into another target language and vice versa. You thus overcome language barriers.
Procedure:
As a translator, you translate exclusively in writing from German into another target language and vice versa. You thus overcome language barriers.
Procedure:
- You apply for authorisation as a translator with the required documents. You can fill out the application completely online, upload the required documents and send them directly to the competent office electronically.
- After receiving the minimum fee, the competent office will check whether you meet the requirements for the general authorisation to swear in based on the information and evidence you provide. You will receive information on the further procedure, such as documents that need to be submitted, and will be informed of the current processing status by e-mail.
- After receipt of payment, you will receive a letter of invitation by post from the competent office with the date for the authorisation order, for which you must appear in person.
- After the authorisation has been granted, you will be issued with a certificate (certified copy of the transcript) which officially authorises you as an authorised translator. The authorisation is granted for a limited period of five years. It can be extended for a further five years on application before expiry.
- You will also be registered as an authorised translator in the interpreter and translator database (see "Further information"). There you and your language mediation services can be publicly found by potential clients. You can decide in your application which data should be published in the database of interpreters and translators.
