Why use my services?

• Peace of mind - I deliver accurate translations of marriage certificates with an attached translator’s certificate with a round court stamp, which is legally required by Registry Offices in the Czech Republic including the Special Registry Office in Brno and other Czech authorities (such as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs).  
  If you have an appointment with the Czech Consulate in London, the Certified translation of  a marriage certificate supplied with a round court stamp will make your appointment at the Czech Consulate quicker and easier, because the consular office will not have to verify the accuracy of the translation and charge you for this service.

• Save time and money - Because I am a freelance translator and not acting as an agency I am able to offer highly competitive prices. You would deal with me personally and explain your specific requirements to me directly, which means that your translation will be completed sooner.

• Professional service - I guarantee a professional standard of work and quality control. I am a professional linguist and have professional indemnity insurance. I provide high quality accurate translations that are accepted by both British and Czech authorities.

• Membership of a professional organisation - I have professional membership with an internationally recognised British linguistic organisation The Institute of Translation and Interpreting and adhere to their code of conduct.

PLEASE NOTE: All Czech Citizens are required by Czech law to inform the Special Registry Office in Brno about entering into a marriage in a foreign country.

If you were married in the UK, you will need to contact the Legalisation Office in Milton Keynes and request that they stamp your Marriage Certificate with an Apostille. The Special Registry Office in Brno will make an entry regarding your marriage into their Register of Marriages when you provide a certified translation of your Marriage Certificate.
If your wedding ceremony took place in another foreign country, please contact the Consulate of the Czech Republic to enquire as to whether your marriage certificate needs to have an Apostille or super-legalisation stamp.

How to order a translation of your marriage certificate from English to Czech:

The Special Registry Office in Brno (Zvláštní matrika v Brně) informed me that the translation of the Marriage certificate must be attached either to the original document, verified photocopy or to a certified copy. The Special Registry Office in Brno keeps the translation in their files and does not return the translated documents to the clients.
Verified copy - For those purposes, the verification of the photocopies in order to be recognised by the Czech authorities can be done in the UK only by the Czech Consulate in London.
Certified copy - In the UK, the Registry Office that issued your Marriage certificate will, on request, send you any number of duplicate marriage certificates –  i.e. the Certified copies. You can order a certified copy of your marriage certificate from the Registry Office which issued the original either by post, telephone or on the internet. It costs £10.50 and usually takes around five working days. This is the easiest option.

Apostille

Please note that the Marriage Certificate must be provided with an Apostille stamp before you send it to me for translation.
In the UK, Apostilles for documents such as Birth certificates, Marriage certificates, Death certificates or Certificate of no impediment to Marriage, are issued by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office in Milton Keynes.
If your Marriage certificate was issued in another foreign country, please contact the Consulate of the Czech Republic to enquire as to whether the birth certificate needs to have an Apostille or super-legalisation stamp.

How quickly can I return the certified translation of the Marriage certificate to you?

Generally, I guarantee that you will receive the certified translation by post within 14 working days from the day when I have received both the document and payment from you.

What to do if your Marriage certificate is in the English language but has been issued in another country than in the UK?

If possible, try to obtain a duplicate or a certified copy of the Marriage certificate from the office where the original was issued. If you cannot obtain a certified copy, in that case I recommend that you send me just a photocopy or scan of the document by email I will attach the translation to the copy and then your will need to take the translation together with the original document to the Czech Consulate for verification. They will put a verification stamp on the translation verifying that the copy to which the translation is attached agrees with the original document.
