About the Irish language.
Irish is a member of the Celtic language family, primarily spoken in Ireland. Other Celtic languages we translate include Breton, Scottish Gaelic and Welsh. Businesses, researchers, legal professionals, and organisations working with Irish-speaking communities rely on accurate language services to communicate effectively and respectfully.
Every Irish project is matched to a linguist with the right language combination and subject knowledge, and run by a named project manager. Depending on the service level you choose, your translation can include an independent second-linguist edit or a fuller proofreading and review.
Ask us about certified Irish translation for official documents such as birth certificates, degree certificates and academic transcripts. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair. For designed documents, our desktop publishing team handles Irish typesetting.

Certified, legal and business Irish translation.
Certified Irish translation
For official documents, tell us which institution will receive your Irish 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 Irish 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.
Irish legal translation
Legal translation into and from Irish requires specialist knowledge of legal terminology, document conventions, and the specific requirements of the relevant legal system. Each project is assigned to a linguist with the right language pair and subject expertise, and managed by a named project manager.
- Contracts, agreements, and commercial negotiations
- Court pleadings, motions, and legal filings
- Patent applications and intellectual property documents
- Legal correspondence including letters and emails
