Need a document that a Polish office, court, university, or bank will actually accept? That usually means a sworn translation – and not every translation qualifies. At Investya we handle both sworn and standard translations across 15+ languages, so your paperwork is recognised the first time you submit it.
What is a sworn translation, and when do you need one?
A sworn translation is prepared by a translator registered with the Polish Ministry of Justice. Every page carries an official stamp, signature and repertory number, giving the document legal force. It's typically required for birth and marriage certificates, diplomas, court documents, notarial deeds, KRS extracts, driving licences and many more.
Three services
Sworn translations
Certified, stamped, legally binding – for official submissions.
Standard translations
Websites, marketing materials, correspondence, internal documents.
Interpreting
Business meetings, notary appointments (required by law when a shareholder doesn't speak Polish), conferences.
Languages
English, German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Ukrainian, Arabic, Turkish, Hindi, Chinese – and more on request.
