Half of it may already be in English

Malta has two official languages, Maltese and English, and a great many Maltese documents carry both — headings in English with the entries filled in Maltese, or the reverse. It makes a document look translated when it is not, and the part left in Maltese is usually the part carrying the names, the places and the annotations.

Send the document and we will tell you what actually needs translating. Occasionally the honest answer is very little, and we would rather say so than quote you for a page that is already in English.

Maltese records and Maltese spelling

Civil records come from the Public Registry: birth, marriage and death certificates, plus the annotations added to them later. Malta is also a common route for citizenship by descent, so older parish and civil records turn up regularly, sometimes in Italian or in Latin rather than Maltese.

Maltese is written in the Latin alphabet with letters English does not have — ħ, ġ, ċ, ż and the digraph għ — and they are letters, not decorated versions of h, g, c and z. We keep the spelling as issued. See also our Italian and Latin pages.

How it works

Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.

A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.

Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.

Certified vs. standard translation

A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where a page is up to 250 words.

A standard translation is for business or personal use where certification is not needed, such as CVs, client intake forms or marketing material, and is billed at the same $24.95 per page of up to 250 words.

Frequently asked questions

Part of my certificate is already in English.

Common in Malta. Send it and we will tell you what genuinely needs translating before you order.

My older Maltese record is in Italian or Latin.

That happens with parish and older civil records. We translate those too; tell us what you have.

Are ħ, ġ and ż preserved?

Yes. They are distinct letters in Maltese and replacing them changes the word.
