Document identity and evidentiary detail
Names, dates, registration numbers, seals, annotations and corrections must be reflected accurately in the translated record according to the accepted format.
What to watch: Do not reconstruct illegible text or silently regularize names.
Final review: Verify every identifying field against the original document.
Recipient and jurisdiction
Acceptance conditions differ between public authorities, universities, banks and foreign institutions. The requesting organization may specify authorized translator, format or authentication rules.
What to watch: Certification and legalization are not synonyms.
Final review: Obtain destination, intended use and any recipient instructions at intake.
Layouts, tables and stamps
Records may require columns, signatures, handwritten notes, stamps and attachments to appear in a traceable sequence.
What to watch: Missing marginal notes can change the evidentiary record.
Final review: Check completeness page by page, including reverse sides and annexes.
Delivery and quality control
The appropriate final file depends on the purpose of submission: editable review, certified printed copy or agreed electronic document.
What to watch: Do not claim acceptance without checking receiving requirements.
Final review: Reconcile the final translated version with the reviewed source before handover.
