Profis and Certified Court Interpreters

A translation by a certified court interpreter is an official translation performed by a professional with full command of the legal terminology in both the source and target languages. This individual has been appointed as a court interpreter by the relevant government authority after passing a certification exam. In the case of Bosnia and Herzegovina, the Federal Ministry of Justice and the Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Srpska are responsible for organizing exams and appointing court interpreters.

Does Profis Have Certified Court Interpreters on Its Team?

Our full-time staff consists of highly experienced translators who have passed the court interpreter certification exam. We have been providing certified translations for many years. Within our agency, we offer certified translation services for English and German, while for certified translations in French, Slovenian, Turkish, and other languages, we have long-standing collaborations with trusted court interpreters from Bosnia and Herzegovina.

How Can You Obtain a Certified Translation from Profis?

To complete your certified translation, the court interpreter must review the original document, as these types of documents are translated in their entirety. You can bring your documents to our office at Envera Šehovića 50, Sarajevo, or contact us via phone or email.

Once the translation is completed and certified, you can collect the documents in person, and we will also send you the translation electronically. For our regular clients, we offer personal delivery of translated materials upon request.

When Is a Certified Translation Required?

A certified translation by a court interpreter is always required when dealing with an official document. Additionally, for consecutive interpretation in court or at a notary’s office, the translator must be a certified court interpreter. Certified translations are also necessary for pharmaceutical research and new medical or pharmaceutical products.

Documents That Require a Certified Translation:

  • Birth certificate
  • Marriage certificate
  • Death certificate
  • Certificates, attestations, and powers of attorney
  • Diplomas
  • Certificates of residency for legal entities
  • Court documents
  • Tender documentation (depending on the client’s requirements)
