Slovenian to German Certified Translation: Accepted by Every German Authority

Delivery usually takes 3 to 6 working days; it may vary depending on the language and scope. Your personal delivery time is stated in your quote. Standard documents like birth certificates or employment contracts are typically faster. Longer documents such as property contracts may take a bit more time. We send the PDF immediately by email, and the original with stamp and signature follows by post. If you have a specific deadline, let us know when you submit your document.

A clear scan or phone photo is all we need to start. Your original stays safely with you. Our sworn translator notes in the certification that the translation was made from a copy. German authorities accept this format. However, some authorities may ask you to present the original document alongside the translation, so keep it ready.

Yes. Our translations are created by translators officially sworn in by German regional courts (öffentlich bestellte und allgemein beeidigte Übersetzer). This is the standard required by the Ausländerbehörde, Standesamt, trade chambers, courts, and all other German authorities. A translation made by a sworn translator in Slovenia is typically not accepted in Germany.

You pay after you receive your translation. The invoice arrives together with your completed document. You then have 14 days to pay by bank transfer. No prepayment, no credit card required. Your certified translation is already in your inbox before you pay a cent.

It depends on the document and the German authority. Slovenia and Germany are both members of the Hague Apostille Convention, so an apostille, rather than full consular legalization, is used. Civil documents like birth and marriage certificates often require an apostille when submitted to a Standesamt. Professional certificates for recognition may or may not need one. We recommend checking with your specific authority first. We translate the apostille as part of your document package.
