Translate Your Turkish Documents

Turkey is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so a Turkish public document intended for official use abroad usually needs an apostille obtained in Turkey, from the Governor's Office (Valilik) for administrative documents, or the courthouse (Adliye) for judicial documents, before or alongside translation.

The order matters. If the apostille is issued in Turkey and then the document is translated, the apostille itself should also be translated. If you are sending a US document to Turkey, it needs an apostille from the issuing US state authority. Tell us the direction and destination and we confirm the correct sequence, so a document isn't rejected on a procedural technicality.

• How Much Does Certified Turkish Translation Cost? Certified Turkish translation is priced per words for standard civil documents, where a page is up to 250 words including numbers. Longer legal, technical or corporate files are priced per word. Optional extras, notarization, hard-copy shipping and rush turnaround, are quoted separately so you see the full amount before ordering. Upload your document for an exact quote within one hour.
• How Long Does a Certified Turkish Translation Take? One- to two-page civil documents such as birth certificates, nüfus kayıt örneği and diplomas are typically delivered within 24 hours. Documents up to ten pages take 48–72 hours. Same-day rush service is available on request. Turnaround starts once the document passes a legibility check.
• Is Your Certified Turkish Translation Accepted by USCIS? Yes. Each certified translation includes a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy on company letterhead confirming the translator's competence and the completeness of the translation, which is what USCIS requires. Our certified translations are also accepted by courts, universities, credential evaluators and consulates.
• Can You Translate a Nüfus Kayıt örneği as a Birth Certificate? Yes. The nüfus kayıt örneği (population registry record) is commonly submitted to USCIS in place of a birth certificate. We translate the record in full, including registry entries, corrections and annotations such as court-ordered name changes, so the receiving authority can verify the information without a follow-up request.
• Do I Need an Apostille On My Turkish Document? Usually yes, for official use abroad. Turkey is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention, and the apostille is obtained in Turkey from the Governor's Office for administrative documents or the courthouse for judicial ones. Tell us the destination country and we confirm whether you need it and in what order relative to translation.
• Do you Provide Notarized Turkish Translations? Yes. Notarization authenticates the signature on the certification statement and is available on request where an institution specifically asks for it. Certification and notarization are different things, most USCIS filings need certification only, so we confirm what your institution actually requires before adding cost.
• How do I Dend my Document and How do I Receive the Translation? Upload a scan or a clear phone photo through the quote form, or email it. You receive the certified translation as a PDF by email, ready to file. Printed copies can be posted on request.
