Qualification Requirements

If you require a certified translation of a criminal records certificate from German into English, you have to be certain that the translator you use is fully qualified.

There are no German sworn translators or German certified translators in the UK. Instead, translators who are qualified and members of a professional institute like the Chartered Institute of Linguists or the Institute of Translation and Interpreting can certify their own translations. These translations are accepted for all official purposes by the Home Office and all other UK government bodies.

The Home Office accepts certified translations of criminal records checks, also known as police clearance certificates, provided by a UK-based translator if:

  • the translator is a member of an official professional organisation, for example the Institute of Translation & Interpreting (ITI) or the Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIoL).
  • the translator works for a company that belongs to the Association of Translation Companies.

Home Office Guidance

Home Office guidance for certified translations of criminal records certificates from German into English states.

If you need to provide a certified translation of a divorce certificate that’s not written in Welsh or English:

  • it must be accompanied by a full translation that can be independently verified by the Home Office. Every translation must contain:
  • confirmation from the translator that the document is an accurate translation of
  • the original document
  • the date of translation
  • the translator’s full name and signature
  • the translator’s qualifications and professional affiliation
  • the translator’s contact details

Full information on translations accepted by the Home Office can be found on page 48 in this pdf file.
