March 23, 2016
The Translation Service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs has stopped offering translation services for Finnish, Swedish, Slovenian, Chinese and Japanese.
What Does This Mean in Practice?
-
If translation from or into one of the above languages is required, it will now be necessary to use an accredited translator officially recommended by the relevant consulate;
-
Translations via independent translators are more expensive than via the Translation Service of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs;
-
Receipt of translation costs is always requested as proof that the translation has been completed by an accredited translator.
Action Items
-
For translations from and into Finnish, Swedish, Slovenian, Chinese and Japanese, ensure that documents are translated by an accredited translator.
-
Bear in mind that the timing and the cost of translations from and into these five languages may differ from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs Translation Service.
