About the Turkish language.
Turkish is the official language of Turkey and one of the official languages of Cyprus. It has been written in the Latin alphabet since 1928, with extra letters such as ç, ğ, ı, ö, ş and ü. The dotted i and the dotless ı are different letters, and getting them wrong changes names and words, so we check them in every name and in the final file. Other Turkic languages we translate include Azerbaijani, Bashkir, Kazakh and Kyrgyz.
Turkish to English work is usually personal, civil, academic and company documents, such as birth certificates, marriage certificates, degree certificates and police clearance certificates. Certified translation is available, and if an authority asks for a sworn translation, ask us to confirm availability for the language pair. Names follow the spelling in your passport or identity document, Turkish letters included.
English to Turkish work is usually business, contract, tender and marketing content. Turkish builds long words by adding suffixes, so translated text can run longer and affect layouts, forms and subtitles. We plan for this from the start.

Certified Turkish translation
For official documents, tell us which institution will receive your Turkish 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 Turkish 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.
Turkish legal translation
Legal translation into and from Turkish 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.
