In the UK, legal requirements for translating documents include ensuring the translation is accurate and complete, reflecting the original document's formatting, layout, and any stamps or seals. The translation must be certified by a qualified translator or translation agency, with certification ideally from a recognised organisation like the Chartered Institute of Linguists. This certification should include the translator's name, signature, and contact details. In specific cases, such as for Welsh language translations, there may be additional requirements due to the unique status of Welsh in the UK. These standards are crucial for the translation's reliability and acceptance in legal and official processes.
