Translation & Interpretation
We translate documents and speak for you at appointments.
We translate between English, Dutch, Polish, Romanian, Russian and Ukrainian, and we interpret during appointments at the municipality, the bank, an insurer or another office.
This is practical translation to help you understand and be understood. It is not a sworn (beëdigde) translation — if an authority requires a sworn translation with a stamp, we tell you and help you find a sworn translator.
Everything you share with us stays confidential.
