Transparent Pricing Based on Official Standards
My rates are based on the German Judicial Remuneration and Compensation Act (JVEG, Section 11). The final price generally includes both the translation fee and a certification fee—which covers the official attestation clause and my sworn translator’s digital signature.
Every document is unique. Factors such as subject matter, formatting, and the amount of research required also influence the total cost. For this reason, a final price can only be confirmed upon completion of the translation.
That said, you will always receive a clear cost estimate in advance, so there are no surprises.
Quality Guaranteed: The Four-Eyes Principle
To ensure the highest level of accuracy and quality, all my sworn translations are proofread by Daniela Kranzer, a trusted colleague and professional translator with expertise in the same field. This review process follows the DIN EN 15038 standard for translation services, ensuring precision and consistency every time.

Need Your Certified Translation in a Hurry?
I understand that sometimes things need to move fast—tight deadlines, last-minute appointments, or urgent submissions. If you require express delivery of your certified translation, I offer a priority service designed to meet your timeline without compromising on quality.
A 30% surcharge applies for express translations, as they require immediate scheduling, quicker turnaround, and often out-of-hours work. Express service availability depends on the length and complexity of your document, so I recommend getting in touch as early as possible to confirm feasibility.
Whether it's for a visa application, court deadline, or any official use, I’ll do my best to accommodate your timeframe and deliver your certified translation promptly and professionally.
