Corporate translation

Who is our corporate translation service for?

Our corporate translation service is designed for foreign investors setting up companies in Türkiye, businesses working with partners abroad, employers hiring foreign staff, and the accountants and law firms that manage these processes. Whenever company documents are to be submitted to official institutions, banks or business partners abroad, corporate translation is carried out by our sworn translators.

For corporate translation orders, your invoice is issued in your company's name. You can upload multiple documents in a single order and track all your orders from one account.

Documents covered by corporate translation

• Trade Registry Gazette, certificate of activity and chamber registration certificate
• Signature circulars, specimen signature declarations and powers of attorney
• Articles of association, general assembly resolutions and board of directors resolutions
• Tax certificates, financial statements, balance sheets and bank letters
• Commercial contracts, protocols and bid documents
• Work permit paperwork, diplomas and certificates for foreign staff

Since some of these documents will be used at a notary or by authorities abroad, a notarized translation is often required. For company documents issued abroad, see our apostille translation page.

Confidentiality and security in corporate translation

Company documents may contain trade secrets and personal data. The files you upload for translation are stored in a protected, non-public area that only our authorized team can access. Each translator can see only the files for the job assigned to them.

In which languages is corporate translation available?

We handle translation requests in 42 languages. The languages we work with most often are Russian, Uzbek, Kazakh, Kyrgyz and Turkmen for companies working with Central Asian countries; Arabic and Persian for companies working with the Middle East; and English, German and Dutch for companies working with Europe.

The corporate translation process

• Upload your documents in a single order and select the language pair and any additional services.
• See the total price and enter your billing details in your company's name.
• Our sworn translators translate the documents, and notarization is obtained if needed.
• PDFs of the translations are uploaded to your account, and the original copies are sent by courier.

Using foreign company documents in Türkiye

If the documents of a company incorporated abroad are to be used in Türkiye to open a branch, carry out partnership transactions, open a bank account or apply for a tender, three steps are usually required: an apostille or consular legalization in the country where the document was issued, a sworn translation in Türkiye and, in most cases, notarization. When you order a translation, simply upload these documents together with their certification endorsements.

Using Turkish company documents abroad

If a Trade Registry Gazette, signature circular or power of attorney issued in Türkiye is to be submitted to a business partner or authority abroad, it is first translated and the translation is then notarized. If the destination country is party to the Hague Convention, an apostille is obtained for the notarized translation.

Terminology and consistency in corporate translation

The company name, partners' names, addresses and legal terms must be written the same way in all documents. If you add your company's official name in the foreign language and any terms you have used before to the order notes, our translators will use them consistently across all documents. For companies we work with regularly, the same terminology is also maintained in future orders.

Tips for bulk corporate translation orders

• Group documents to be translated into the same language in a single order.
• Include the document name in the file name, for example “signature-circular.pdf”.
• Mark documents that require notarization or an apostille separately in the order notes.
• Write the number of copies for documents that require more than one copy.
• Make sure your billing details match your company records.

Import, export and tender documents

The documents of companies engaged in foreign trade are used both at customs and at the banks of foreign business partners. Commercial invoices, certificates of origin, packing lists, certificates, product documents and tender files are translated by our sworn translators as part of our corporate translation service. If the document is to be used by an official authority, notarization can also be added.

For employers of foreign staff

Employers applying for work permits for foreign staff often need translations of passports, diplomas and professional documents. You can group the documents of several employees in a single order and identify each employee's documents in the file name. This way, the translations are uploaded to your account neatly organized by employee.

How is the price of corporate translation determined?

The price is calculated based on the document type, the number of pages, the language pair and additional services such as notarization or apostille; 20% VAT is added. When you upload your documents, the total price is shown in the order. For regular or high-volume work, please contact us.
