Why Choose My Certified Translation Services?

As a sworn Polish translator officially appointed by the Ministry of Justice, I provide certified translations that are legally recognized throughout Poland and abroad. Here's why clients trust my services:

• Officially appointed sworn translator – I am entered on the official list of sworn translators maintained by the Polish Ministry of Justice, in accordance with the Act of 25 November 2004 on the Profession of Sworn Translator. This status authorises me to issue certified translations that are legally binding in Poland and abroad.
• Over 20 years' experience in sworn, specialist, and legal translation, including extensive work with courts, notaries, and registry offices in Warmia & Mazury
• Native-level English expertise and legal knowledge – Diploma in Public Service Interpreting (DPSI) with English Law specialization from the United Kingdom
• Professional memberships – Active member of TEPIS (Polish Society of Sworn and Specialist Translators), ZZTP (Professional Association of Sworn Translators), and Chartered Institute of Linguists (CIOL) since 2008
• Professional liability insurance, secure processes, and confidentiality guaranteed for all document translations

Certified English Translation Services

Certified translations in Poland may only be issued by an individual sworn translator. Translation agencies themselves do not normally hold sworn status and cannot legally certify translations in their own name. As a sworn translator registered with the Ministry of Justice, I personally handle every translation to ensure legal validity.
Each certified translation I prepare is:

• Issued with my official stamp (chop) and handwritten signature
• Recorded in a statutory repertory as required by Polish law
• Formatted and proofread to ensure full compliance with formal requirements
• Personally verified against the original document to guarantee accuracy

My certified English-Polish translation services cover civil, legal, educational, and business documents required by courts, notaries, registry offices (Urzędy Stanu Cywilnego), universities, and administrative institutions throughout Poland and internationally.

Civil and Official Documents

I translate all types of civil and official documents for use in Poland and abroad:

• Birth certificates (akt urodzenia), marriage certificates (akt małżeństwa), and death certificates (akt zgonu) for registry office submissions
• Certificates of no impediment to marriage for international marriages and civil ceremonies
• Administrative decisions (decyzje administracyjne), official correspondence, and government notices
• Residency certificates, registration documents, and local permits
• Divorce decrees, custody agreements, and family court documents

All civil document translations are prepared according to the requirements of local authorities in Mrągowo, Kętrzyn, Olsztyn, and throughout Warmia & Mazury.

Legal and Court Documents

My legal translation experience includes work with courts and law firms in both the United Kingdom and Poland:

• Court judgments (wyroki sądowe), rulings, and court orders
• Legal pleadings, lawsuits (pozwy), summonses, and legal correspondence
• Contracts (umowy) – commercial, employment, lease, and service agreements
• Powers of attorney (pełnomocnictwa) for legal representation
• Notarial deeds (akty notarialne) and notarial documents
• Legal opinions, statements of claim, and procedural documents

My background includes providing sworn translations for police investigations, court proceedings, and official inquiries. During my time working with UK law enforcement and legal institutions (2002-2010) I undertook all of the aforementioned interpreting and translations.

Educational & Employment Documents

I translate academic and professional documents for university applications, employment abroad, and professional licensing:

• Diplomas and university degrees (dyplomy) with official certification
• Academic transcripts and diploma supplements (suplementy do dyplomu)
• School certificates (świadectwa szkolne), grade reports, and educational records
• Employment certificates (świadectwa pracy), job references, and recommendation letters
• Professional licenses, qualifications, and certification documents
• CV/resumes for international job applications

Educational document translations are accepted by universities, employers, and professional licensing bodies in Poland, the UK, and internationally.

Specialist and Business Documents

• Corporate documents – company registration, articles of association, shareholder agreements
• Financial records – balance sheets, financial statements, audit reports
• Insurance documents – policies, claims, coverage certificates
• Technical manuals, product specifications, and user documentation
• Business correspondence and commercial contracts
• Reports and policies for business and institutional use​

In addition to written certified translations, I provide sworn interpreting services (tłumaczenia ustne przysięgłe) for official proceedings across  Warmia & Mazury, and throughout Poland:
