Interpreters for courts and public authorities

Ask the institution about its requirements

Check directly with the institution which appointment, oath or other qualification is required and who may commission the interpreter. We assess the specific request rather than promising acceptance by every institution.

Prepare the appointment

Provide the address, start time, expected duration, reference where needed and a contact. Relevant documents and the invitation help planning. Written certified translations are commissioned as a separate service.

Typical content and situations

• Court appointments
• Public authority meetings
• Notarial appointments by arrangement
• Appointments with specific qualification requirements

Dates, availability and duration

Enquire as soon as the location and date are known. Availability depends on languages, subject and location. For urgent requests, give the actual deadline; we confirm availability only after checking. For longer events, we discuss breaks and whether a team is needed.

What to include in your enquiry

• Date, start time, planned duration and full address
• Languages, regional variants and interpreting direction
• Purpose, subject, participant count and local contact
• Institution requirements, agenda and necessary equipment
