What we do

One team for the whole chain: translation, notarisation, apostille or embassy legalization, and delivery.

  • Certified translation

    Sworn and certified translations of official, legal, academic and business documents, accepted by authorities, universities and embassies.

    The full legalization chain through ministries and consulates for countries that do not accept the apostille.

  • Embassy legalization

    Attestation of your documents by the relevant embassy, including preparation, translation and submission.

  • Certified true copies

    Notarised copies certified as identical to the original, for applications where you need to keep your originals.

  • Power of attorney

    Powers of attorney prepared, translated, notarised and legalized so someone can act for you in Somalia or abroad.
