Portuguese translation agency: certified and sworn
As a professional translation agency for Portuguese, we guarantee the highest quality standards. Our translation agency works exclusively with sworn translators.
Where others merely transfer words, we create understanding: our Portuguese translators combine linguistic sensitivity with professional expertise and draw on proven processes tailored specifically to the challenges of this language. Cultural particularities between Lisbon and São Paulo are taken into account, as are industry-specific requirements – whether adapting legal texts to local legislation or rendering technical details. Particular attention is paid to typical pitfalls such as false friends (e.g. 'Fabrik' does not mean 'fábrica') and to formal differences in official documents. Thanks to consistent terminology databases, multi-stage editing and certified workflows in line with ISO standards, we ensure uncompromising quality and legal certainty – regardless of the scope and difficulty of your project.
How does a Portuguese translation work with us? First, together with you, we analyse the exact requirements and the desired language variant (Portugal or Brazil). After the quote is prepared, an experienced project manager takes over the coordination of all steps: selecting suitable professional translators, creating individual glossaries, monitoring the workflow and involving additional editing for particularly sensitive texts. Every translation goes through a multi-stage quality management process – including proofreading by independent language experts and a final format check. For certified translations, the issuance is carried out by specially authorised translators. Throughout the entire process, we guarantee the highest data security and absolute confidentiality. Finally, you receive your document on time and in the desired file format.

Companies also use our service for internal training materials, compliance documents and product information, while private individuals often rely on our expertise for birth certificates, certificates or marriage documents.

For official purposes we produce certified translations of official documents, references and certificates that are recognised by authorities and courts. In addition, academic papers, study protocols and presentations are part of our daily business – always precise, on time and confidential.
