Certified translation in Balikpapan

Clients in Balikpapan and the wider East Kalimantan area order certified translation from us without visiting an office. Send the document as a scan, confirm the written quote, and collect the finished work by email or courier.

A certified translation is not simply an accurate one. It carries a signed statement from a translator who is authorised to produce it, with a seal and a registration number the receiving authority can verify. Without that, a perfectly good translation is returned at the counter.

What you get

  • Sworn translator's signature, seal and registration number on every page
  • Signed statement of accuracy attached to the translation
  • Layout matched to the original, including seals and stamps
  • Digital copy by email and stamped hard copies by courier
  • Onward notary, ministry and embassy steps handled in the same file

How it works from Balikpapan

Start with a photo or a scan — a phone picture is usually good enough to quote from. We reply with the price, the list of certifications your destination country actually requires, and the delivery date. Originals are collected in Balikpapan by courier only when a wet stamp cannot be avoided.

Common questions

Is a certified translation the same as a notarised one?

No. The sworn translator certifies that the content is accurate. A notary certifies that the signature on that statement really belongs to the translator. Many authorities want both, in that order.

Do you need the original document?

For the translation itself, a clear scan or photo is enough. The original is only needed when a later step — notary, ministry or embassy — has to stamp the physical document.

How long does it take?

A one to three page civil document is normally ready in two working days. Longer or specialised files are quoted with a date before work starts, and rush handling is available.
