01 / Why through us
Same certification. A fraction of the invoice.
- PRICE
The Croatian rate
Court-certified translators in Croatia bill far less than certified translators abroad for a page with exactly the same legal standing. You pay the Croatian market rate, not the premium one.
- CERTIFIED
Fully certified
Every translation is officially certified and accepted by the Croatian Ministry of the Interior and Croatian courts. Your documents meet the requirements of the application without further legalisation.
- LOGISTICS
We handle the logistics
We coordinate the whole translation and delivery process. No sourcing a translator, negotiating a rate or chasing a courier. That part is ours from start to finish.
- TURNAROUND
Three to five days
Most documents are translated and certified within 3–5 business days of us receiving them. For a time-sensitive appointment, ask us about expedited handling before you order.
- SCOPE
Any document type
Birth certificates, marriage and death records, court judgements, diplomas, military records, baptismal certificates. If the application needs it translated, we can translate it.
- SCANS ONLY
Scans, not originals
Never post us an original. Good-quality scans are enough to translate from, and you receive the certified translations themselves in hard copy, ready to submit.
02 / How it works
Three steps, and none of them involve the post office.
- 01
Send us your documents
Email good-quality scans: no originals, nothing in the post. We count the pages and send you a fixed quote before any work begins.
- 02
Translation and certification
Our Zagreb translators translate and officially certify each page at 30 € per page. Standard turnaround is 3–5 business days from receipt.
- 03
Delivered to your door
Choose how you want them sent. The certified hard copies arrive ready to submit with your citizenship application.
03 / What it costs
Two lines on the invoice. That is the whole of it.
Translation & certification
One translation page is 1,500 characters including spaces. The final page count is fixed in your quote, after we have seen the documents.
Shipping & delivery
Via DHL, UPS or FedEx, tracked and insured. Regular mail is available as an economy option, but is not recommended for certified documents.
Example · 5-page application package
Several relatives applying off the same ancestor? The shared records are translated once for the whole family, and larger volumes are quoted individually — ask for a family quote.
