Our charge for the entire service - translation, stamping by the authorised translator and stamping by the notary public (including the county court fee of 293 kroner) and returning the documents by post - is 1000 kroner. What does it cost and how long will it take? So before we send the translation to you we take it to a local county court to be stamped by their notary public ( see details here). Unfortunately, because Norway does not publish a current list of state-chartered translators the various county governorвЂ™s offices (Fylkeshus) - which previously each maintained their own lists for the purpose of validation вЂ“ have introduced a new practice requiring all legal stamps to be re-stamped by a local notary public at the county court. They will charge a fee to issue the apostile. It is your responsibility to make sure that a translation of a certified copy will be accepted by the body to which you are sending the translation.ДЄssuming that the country to which you are sending the document accepts an apostile, you will need to take or post the translated document that you receive from us to your local county governorвЂ™s office (Fylkeshus). The translation will specify whether we have seen the original document or just a certified copy. We return this together with our translated document. If you are sending your document to a country that has not signed the Apostile convention (Canada and various far-eastern countries are the most common of these) then you should consult that country's Norwegian embassy for information.Д«efore we can produce a certified translation we need to see the original document, or at least a photocopy that is stamped and signed as a certified copy by an approved public body (local courthouse, police station, town hall, church office etc).

An apostille stamp confirms that the state-chartered translatorвЂ™s signature on a document is genuine and that the translator actually has the authority to issue it. Those countries that have subscribed to the Hague Convention for Legalisation for Foreign Public Documents, also known more concisely as the Apostile Convention (see list of countries here) require an apostile.

Exactly what you need depends on the country in which you will be using it.

Probably not, as it is difficult for foreign bodies to validate the documentation. If they can, that would be cheaper and will save you a lot of bother! If the original document has been issued by a Norwegian public body (for example, Skatteetaten) check whether the body is able to re-issue the document to you in English. If you are sending a document to a public body or authority in a non-Nordic country they will require a certified translation by a statsautorisert translatГёr (state-chartered translator) - a specially-trained legal translator whose stamp and signature carries the same authority as a notary. Do you need a certified translation of your document?
