Certified Turkish to English translation for Norway

A standard document is a single-page official document. Multi-page records such as bank statements and long transcripts are counted per page, and the packages cover standard single-page documents — not unlimited pages. Each price includes the certified English translation, signed and stamped, delivered as a PDF; notarisation, apostilles, official fees and courier delivery are not included.

Standard documents are delivered as a PDF within 24 hours; court decisions and long documents are quoted, with their turnaround, after review. Applying from Türkiye? Our Turkish lira prices apply: Turkish price list.

For recognition of foreign higher education (bachelor, master, PhD), HK-dir asks for documents not in English or a Nordic language to be translated into Norwegian or English, and lists among accepted translations: “Translations done by a translation agency in Norway or abroad.” It also states: “We do not require translations to be apostilled.”

HK-dir’s format rules: it must be clear who translated the documents, and every page must carry a stamp and/or signature applied by hand after the translation is completed, or a qualified electronic signature; stamps or signatures pasted in with a graphics program are not accepted. For HK-dir orders we stamp and sign every page by hand and send you a scan of the finished translation, together with the original-language document you upload. HK-dir may ask for originals or original translations; we post the signed paper translation on request (courier paid by you).

Many Turkish universities also issue an English diploma or transcript; HK-dir accepts documents issued in English by the institution, so check this first. Other HK-dir procedures (vocational education, professional qualifications) have their own rules. Source: HK-dir — documentation requirements, higher education.

Universities set their own requirements, so check your programme’s page. NTNU, for example, asks for “an authorised translation into English” of documents not in English or a Scandinavian language; the University of Oslo’s NORA page for Türkiye asks for an official translation by an authorized translator of both the transcript and the diploma. Whether a sworn translation made in Türkiye meets this is the university’s decision — send us the programme link and we check the wording before you pay.

Diploma and one-page transcript: €55 as two standard documents. Multi-page transcripts are quoted per document. Diploma and transcript translation.

UDI asks for documents that are not in Norwegian or English to be translated into Norwegian or English, with the translator’s name and the date shown on the translation; the exact rules depend on the application type, so follow the checklist for your own application on udi.no. UDI decides whether a translation is accepted.

If you apply from Türkiye and your checklist asks for the translation to be stamped by the authorities or a notary, we arrange Turkish notarisation of the translation and quote it together with the translation. Tell us the application type when you send the documents.

To register a marriage concluded abroad in the National Population Register, Skatteetaten accepts certificates in English or a Nordic language, and states: “If the translation is done abroad, the translation must also have an apostille or be legalised.” Original certificates usually need an apostille as well, and documents are sent by post — electronic certificates are not accepted.

For these cases we prepare the English translation, have it notarised in Türkiye, arrange the apostille on the translation and send the paper documents by courier, in one total written quote. The apostille on your Turkish certificate and the apostille on the translation are two separate certificates. Remarrying in Norway after a foreign divorce also needs approval from the County Governor (Statsforvalteren). Source: Skatteetaten — registration of a marriage solemnised abroad.

English is enough wherever the receiving authority accepts it — HK-dir, many university admissions, UDI applications and Skatteetaten registrations above. Some procedures need a Norwegian translation by a Norwegian state-authorised translator, for example documents for Norwegian courts and health-personnel authorisation; we do not offer Norwegian translations, so for those we tell you before you pay.

• A complete English translation of the document, including stamps, annotations and the finality note of court decisions.
• The translator’s certification statement, name, signature and stamp on every page, the date, and our contact details.
• A PDF scan of the signed and stamped translation; the paper original by courier when your procedure needs it.

Two different certificates are involved. An apostille on your Turkish source document is issued by the Turkish authorities; a Turkish criminal record or court decision can receive an e-Apostil online (Ministry of Justice), other documents a paper apostille. An apostille on the translation is a separate step, needed only where the receiving authority asks for it — for example Skatteetaten when the translation is made abroad. HK-dir does not require translations to be apostilled.
