About sworn Turkish translations

International clients often use the words certified or notarised, while the Dutch system uses the term sworn (beëdigd). In the Netherlands the element that carries legal weight is the sworn, Rbtv-registered translator who signs and stamps the work; a notary is not involved in the translation itself. So if a Dutch body asks for a certified or official Turkish translation, a sworn translation is what they mean.

Only a translator sworn before a Dutch district court and listed in the Rbtv for the Dutch–Turkish pair, a register kept by Bureau Wbtv on behalf of the Ministry of Justice and Security. That registration is what authorities check, not the translator's qualifications alone.

Civil-status documents (birth, marriage, death and divorce certificates), academic documents (diplomas and transcripts), criminal-record extracts, and various legal and corporate documents are the most common.

Frequently asked questions about Turkish translations

What is a sworn translation?▼

A sworn translation is made by a translator sworn before a Dutch court and entered in the Register of Sworn Interpreters and Translators (Rbtv). It carries the translator's signed statement and official stamp, which is why Dutch authorities accept it as an official translation.

Is a sworn translator the same as a certified translator?▼

In the Netherlands the official term is sworn (beëdigd) translator, registered in the Rbtv. Certified translation is the English label international clients use for the same thing, so for Dutch use they amount to the same document; what matters is the Rbtv registration.

Who can make a certified Dutch–Turkish translation?▼

Only a translator sworn before a Dutch court and listed in the Rbtv, kept by Bureau Wbtv, for that language pair. We work with Rbtv-registered translators, so the translation meets the requirement of the authority that asked for it.

Do I need a sworn translation for the IND?▼

The IND requires foreign-language documents in a residence or naturalisation application to be translated by a sworn (Rbtv) translator into Dutch, English, French or German. A sworn translation meets that requirement, backed by our acceptance guarantee.
