Birth Cert Translation

freshtodeath · 25-07-2009, 00:39

Bonjour!

I'm going on Erasmus to France for a year and I hear it is recommended that you get your birth cert translated into french before you go. Anybody know where I might be able to get this done in Dublin? Been searching on google a bit but it has been fruitless.

Thanks in advance!

On m'a fait la traduction au service culturel, Ambassade de France en Irlande, Kildare Street mais il y a longtemps - dans les années quatre-vingt-dix. Je ne sais pas s'ils le font toujours.

I'm sure your Erasmus coordinator knows? (home university)

I had to have mine translated 2 years ago for a job, got it done at the Sandford Language Institute. Cost me €40 to get my short birth cert done.

Here's their website: http://www.sandfordlanguages.ie

€40

They saw you coming, honestly just do it yourself, I did that and I wasn't asked any questions. Just make sure there are no mistakes in it.

not really, they insisted on the translation coming from a recognised translator with proof included, otherwise they wouldn't let me sign my contract.

Well I translated mine myself and it was a government agency and they didn't say anything.
Depends on who is asking I suppose

€40-60 quid is a minimum charge for most translation companies.
I can't believe you have not been able to find a certified freelance translator online, did you not check the Certified translator register at the Irish Translators Association website?

Google Daniele Tort in Ranelagh. She did our translation for our wedding.
