Dutch sworn translation is not one universal certification model
Translator status and certification terminology differ by jurisdiction. A translation accepted for one procedure may require another formal route when submitted to a different authority or country.
Follow the terminology used by the receiving institution instead of assuming that “sworn” and “certified” always mean the same thing.
Electronic and paper Dutch sworn translations
Depending on the translator, jurisdiction and procedure, a Dutch sworn translation may be available electronically or may need to be issued as a paper document.
The receiving institution decides which format it accepts, so the delivery method should be checked before the order is confirmed.
Dutch translation and apostille are separate requirements
An apostille authenticates certain public documents for international use. Translation concerns the language and formal translation format. Depending on the procedure, one or both may be required.
