On the qualification of sworn translators
Sworn translators have taken a general oath at a regional court, higher regional court or an authority for domestic affairs, which is valid before all federal and state courts in accordance with § 189 para. 2 of the German code on court constitution (GVG). They have proven their special professional qualification and personal suitability for language mediation at courts, authorities and notaries’ offices.
Since sworn translators are practically entrusted with a sovereign task, they are bound to secrecy by law (§ 189 para. 4 GVG) and have to translate spoken or written texts faithfully and conscientiously into the target language. You can also find out more about this on the website of the German Federal Association of Interpreters and Translators BDÜ.
What needs to be taken into account when translating a notarial recording?
A notarial recording is the strictest legal form of documentation. It is prescribed for legally complicated constructs, - such as a company agreement, which only takes effect with the signature of a notary. If a translation of such a document is required, it generally has to be certified.
Certified translation
A certified translation may only be carried out by a sworn translator. The correctness and completeness of the translation are certified stating the place and date and, depending on the (federal) state, with the stamp of the sworn translator.
