Notarized translation in Israel
A notarized translation is a professional and accurate translation prepared by a certified notary who have fluent knowledge of both languages (the language at the original document and the language of the translation). It is possible that the translation for such a purpose be prepared by a professional translator who speak well these 2 languages and then the notary will check very carefully the translation and verify it in a specific form prepared by the notary.
Anyway, the Notary who prepares the notarized translation takes responsibility that the translation is accurate and being faithful and a correct translation. The notary will sign with his signature and seal on an attached document and on the prepared written confirmation as a proof of it.
Another option which can be prepared by a notary public is a confirmation of a translator’s declaration. In such a case the notary attach to the confirmation both the original document or it’s copy and a translation not prepared by him, and also a written declaration of the translator who declares the he is a professional translator, he is fluent in both languages and that he has translated the attached document as the attached translation is a faithful and accurate translation. However it may be the case that the notary does not speak either languages of these documents. In such a case the role of the notary is mainly to confirm the signature of the translator on the mentioned declaration and to attach the said documents as a notarized document. Many authorities accept such notarized documents.
The costs of the said 2 options are different
The first option: Usually is more expensive as it is regulated by the Notaries law according to the numbers of words counted in the translation which the notary has prepared by himself and being responsible for it – the notary approve the correctness of the translation.
