About the Polish language.
Polish is the official language of Poland. It is a Slavic language written in the Latin alphabet, with extra letters such as ą, ć, ę, ł, ń, ó, ś, ź and ż.
Polish letters change pronunciation and meaning, and they matter in names. We keep them exactly as they appear on the identity document. Polish uses formal forms of address (Pan, Pani) in business and official writing, and the register must stay consistent. Polish legal documents follow civil-law conventions, so legal terms are translated by linguists who know both systems.
Polish to English is usually personal, civil, academic and company documents. English to Polish is usually business, contract and marketing content.
Common Polish documents include birth certificates, marriage certificates, degree certificates and police clearance certificates. A certified translation is available for these. If an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair.
