How long will it take to receive the sworn translation? plus

How long it takes to receive your sworn translation depends on the number of pages, the language combination and the country to which the translation needs to be sent. Call us at +31 (0)85-0080839 to discuss what is possible.

We always aim to deliver within 3 business days, requiring 2 business days for the translation itself. If the document contains more than 6 pages, we may need more than 2 working days for the translation. And also if the language combination you need is quite rare, we may need more time.

When the translation is ready, we deliver it for registered mail to PostNL and share the Track & Trace code with you so you can track the delivery status yourself.

For shipments within the Netherlands, PostNL normally delivers within 1 business day, with Tuesday through Saturday as delivery days for PostNL. For shipments to other countries, delivery times vary widely. On the PostNL website you can find the most up-to-date information on delivery times.

How will I know when I receive my sworn translation? plus

You will be kept informed of the progress of the sworn translation via email. As soon as the sworn translator has completed the translation, you will receive a Track & Trace code from us. From then on, you can track the status of the shipment online via PostNL.

Why is the sworn translation sent by registered mail? plus

A sworn translation is a valuable document that is only useful if it is available on paper. It is therefore necessary to send it by post. By opting for registered mail, the translation is sent by the shortest possible route and with the smallest chance that it will be lost in the shipping process. Moreover, this way you will receive a Track & Trace code with which you can follow the translation.

Can I also have my sworn translation sent abroad? plus

It is possible to send your sworn translation to a country other than the Netherlands. In this case the shipping costs will be higher. Check the current rates for registered mail on the PostNL website. We will inform you immediately if a higher rate applies.

Please note that when shipping abroad, paper delivery times are longer than normal. Check the PostNL website for the average lead time for shipments abroad.
