Sworn translation (also known as certified translation) is still unknown for most clients, therefore let’s resolve some questions.

WHY THE SWORN TRANSLATION CAN NOT BE DELIVERED BY E-MAIL?

Even if you can send the scanned originals by e-mail, the sworn or certified translation must be delivered in hardcopy, it is sealed and signed by the sworn translator and it shall include a copy of the original (which shall be also signed, sealed and dated) and the legend or the translator’s oath.
