Bulgarian Certified, Notarised, FCO Legalized Translation

We provide Bulgarian certified, notarised, FCO legalised translations in locations across the UK.

The types of Bulgarian certification and notarisation

We are able to offer three types of certified Bulgarian translation. It is important that you check with the appropriate authority which type of certification they will accept.

The first type of certification comes in the form of a letter printed on Knockhundred’s letterhead certifying that, as a professional translation company, Knockhundred has undertaken the translation.

The second type of certification is where the translation is stamped and signed by a Notary Public.

The third type of certification is when authorities require some notarised documents to be further certified/legalised by the British Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO).

Bulgarian notarised AND/OR FCO LEGALIZED translation services

Knockhundred offers notarised translation services to our clients based in locations across the UK. This means that, if required, in addition to our own certified translation, we will have our own Notary Public certify or "notarise" the Bulgarian translation.

A notarised Bulgarian translation is also sometimes referred to as a "sworn" translation. It can also be called a Bulgarian legalised translation.

We offer notarised Bulgarian translations of...

  • birth certificates
  • death certificates
  • marriage certificates
  • divorce certificates and decree absolute
  • education certificates
  • qualification certificates and other qualification documents
  • certificate of no impediment (also referred to as CNI)
  • legal statements
  • declarations and legal declaration documents
  • Notarised translation costs from £145.00 + VAT (if applicable)
  • FCO legalisation and translation costs from £215.00 + VAT
Foreign and Commonwealth Office certification (FCO certification)

If you (or the public body to whom you are submitting your notarised documents) requires further certification, we can also arrange for our Notary Public to have the Bulgarian documents certified by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. This process is also referred to as FCO certification or legalisation.

Some official bodies require this additional certification and we strongly advise you to find out in advance whether you require this service. In this instance, you are usually able to use the notarised and certified Bulgarian documents outside of the UK.

The FCO certified Bulgarian translation also contains a translation Apostille - an official FCO stamp confirming that the translation is legal and official.

Turnaround times for certified and notarised Bulgarian translation

We can normally translate and certify your documents within a 24 hour period. However, you will need to allow additional time for posting hard copies of the original documents.

Where documents require notarisation, we would normally require 4 business days turnaround time.

Need notarised Bulgarian translation services in a hurry?

We also offer a fast-track notarised Bulgarian translation service. If you opt for this service, we will arrange for the certified Bulgarian translation to be delivered by courier to our Notary Public who will in turn courier the documents back to you. In the case of a single certificate, this would reduce the turnaround time to within 2 business days, sometimes even possible within 24 hours (plus the initial delivery time of the originals from you to Knockhundred Translations). If you require this service, please contact us.

How much does notarised Bulgarian translation cost?

For a single document (e.g. a birth certificate, a death certificate, a marriage certificate etc), we charge from £145.00 + VAT (if applicable).

This price includes Bulgarian translation costs, Knockhundred's company certification and notarisation by our Notary Public.

We can accept payment in sterling, Euros or US dollars. Payment can be made directly into one of our accounts or via credit/debit card over the phone.

WHILE YOU’RE HERE... SOME QUITE INTERESTING FACTS ABOUT THE Bulgarian LANGUAGE

Bulgarian is the official language in the Republic of Bulgaria. With the accession of Bulgaria to the EU in 2007, it became official for the Union, thus introducing the Cyrillic alphabet as the third official alphabet in the Union. Bulgarian is also spoken in Moldova, Ukraine, Serbia, Macedonia, Romania, Greece, Turkey and by emigrant groups all over the world.

Bulgarians shake their heads when they mean "yes" and nod when they mean "no". Sometimes they reverse these gestures if they know they are speaking to foreigners, thereby complicating the issue further. Emphatic use of the words da (yes) and ne (no) should be enough to avoid misunderstandings.

Bulgarian SAMPLE TEXT

Стефан Цанев
Поезия за двама
Къде бях тази нощ?При коя жена?
Помня устните само и две колена.
Помня"Стига!Устните ме болят!".
Помня устните си,спящи на гръд.
Помня как зад гърба ми тракна врата,
Помня вятъра,издухващ нощта.
Помня пустите улици,помня празната длан.
И вървях като просяк,от банкери обран.
