A notarised translation means a translation, which was made by a sworn translator authorised by the Ministry of Justice, at Biroudetraduceri.com Translation Agency, and which was then certified by a notary. You need to provide the original of the document (instrument) or its certified copy, for such purposes.

There are several binding conditions, which the document to be translated and notarised should comply with, namely:

  1. It must have an outgoing number and date of issue,
  2. It must be signed by a person, who is empowered to do this, and it must also have a clear impress of the seal from the issuing entity,
  3. The document must have no deletions or additions, rectified words or any unspecified corrections,
  4. If the document comprises several sheets, they must be sewn and sealed by the issuing entity,
  5. The documents from the courts must become final.

So, if you apply for a notarised translation, you will get a set comprising the original document or its notarised copy, translation with the insertion*, signature and seal of the sworn translator, and the notary’s insertion. The notary certifies a copy of the presented official document and the signature of the sworn translator, who made and certified the translation.

If the document is received from abroad (save for the countries from the Commonwealth of Independent States, Romania, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and so on), a binding condition for its recognisance by the notary is the procedure of document apostilling or supralegalisation (consular legalisation) in the issuing country. Please, find the list of the countries that recognise official documents either under the 1961 Hague Convention, through apostilling, or under consular legalisation, on the website: https://mfa.gov.md/ro/content/lista-statelor-si-modul-de-recunoastere-actelor-oficiale.

There may be notarised only the translation of the official instruments (documents) issued by the competent authorities in the Republic of Moldova or abroad. There may be notarised the translation of the official documents from the following categories:

  • Certificates (birth certificates, marriage certificates, divorce certificates, death certificates, name change certificates, certificates of vital records, police clearance certificates, residence (citizenship) certificates, driving licences, technical datasheets, foreign travel passports, identity cards, vehicle registration certificates, and so on,
  • Certificates and diplomas of education, annexes and analytical programmes diplomas of general secondary education, of bachelor, of master degree or of Ph.D. degree, documents of incorporation, excerpts, certificates of employment (of study, of salary, annual leave, and so on),
  • Legal and notarial documents: agreements on apartment purchase and sale, expert findings, general powers of attorney, documents of assignment, documents of inheritance, different civil agreements, land documents,
  • Standardised medical certificates, certificates of medical assays, hospital discharge certificates, vaccination certificates, and so on,
  • Final judicial documents issued by the courts.

There may be made notarised translations of 2 kinds:

As coupled with the original document

The text of translation is sewn to the original document and becomes an inseparable part thereof. It is usually done when the original document is needed only once or has a limited time period of validity, for instance, for the police clearance certificate, which is valid for three months.

The cost of notarisation of translation makes 50 MDL in this case and you pay only for the certification of translator’s signature,

As coupled with a certified copy of the document

The text of translation is sewn to a copy of the notarised document. You need this kind of notarisation if you want to keep the original document. The notary takes a fee for each certified page-copy.

In this case, the cost of notarisation makes 30 MDL per page + 50 MDL for the certification of translator’s signature.
