About the Acehnese language.
Acehnese (Bahsa Acèh) is the main language of Aceh province, at the northern tip of Sumatra in Indonesia, including the capital Banda Aceh. It is an Austronesian language of the Chamic branch, related to the Cham languages of Vietnam and Cambodia rather than to its Sumatran neighbours. Other Austronesian languages we translate include Balinese, Buginese, Javanese and Minangkabau.
Acehnese is written in the Latin alphabet today, with accented vowels such as è and ô. It was historically written in Jawi, an Arabic-based script, which still appears in religious and historic texts.
Indonesian official documents are issued in Indonesian, which we also translate. Acehnese work is usually humanitarian and community material, interviews and statements, research, and interpreting for people more comfortable in Acehnese than in Indonesian.
We translate in both directions, including Acehnese into English or Indonesian. Indonesian names are often spelled in more than one way, so we keep them consistent with the passport or other documents you supply. A certified translation is available for these. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.

Certified Acehnese translation
For official documents, tell us which institution will receive your Acehnese translation and send its written requirements. We assess the language pair and confirm whether the project needs a signed statement of accuracy, a sworn translator or another process. Acceptance is decided by the receiving institution.
Common documents include birth certificates, marriage certificates, degree certificates and police clearance certificates. Requirements differ between courts, embassies, universities and immigration authorities, so tell us where the Acehnese translation will be submitted and send any written instructions you have. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.
