Ukrainian Certified, Notarised, FCO Legalized Translation
We provide Ukrainian certified, notarised, FCO legalised translations in locations across the UK.
The types of Ukrainian certification and notarisation
We are able to offer three types of certified Ukrainian 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).
Ukrainian 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 Ukrainian translation.
A notarised Ukrainian translation is also sometimes referred to as a "sworn" translation. It can also be called a Ukrainian legalised translation.
We offer notarised Ukrainian 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 Ukrainian 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 Ukrainian documents outside of the UK.
The FCO certified Ukrainian translation also contains a translation Apostille - an official FCO stamp confirming that the translation is legal and official.
Turnaround times for certified and notarised Ukrainian 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 Ukrainian translation services in a hurry?
We also offer a fast-track notarised Ukrainian translation service. If you opt for this service, we will arrange for the certified Ukrainian 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 Ukrainian 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 Ukrainian 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 Ukrainian LANGUAGE
Ukrainian is an Eastern Slavonic language closely related to Russian and Belarusian. It is spoken by about 51 million people in Ukraine (Україна) and in many other countries, including Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Brazil, Canada, Estonia, Georgia, Hungary, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Paraguay, Poland, Romania, Russia and Slovakia.
The recorded history of the Ukrainian language began in 988, when the principality of Kiev (Київ) was converted to Christianity.
In the 13th century, Ukraine became part of the Grand Duchy of Lithuanian and Ruthenian, an ancestor of Belarusian and Ukrainian became the main language. The remaining parts of Ukraine were taken over by Poland during the 16th century and Latin and Polish were used for official purposes. Ruthenian began to split into Ukrainian and Belarusian during this period.
The Cossacks later moved into eastern Ukraine and during the 17th century, their leader, Bohdan Khmelnytsky, invited Russia to help against Polish domination in 1648. During the reign of Catherine the Great, the Cossacks moved to the eastern frontiers of Russia, but Ukraine remained under Russian domination, and the Russians considered the Ukrainian language as little more than a dialect of Russian. Ukraine enjoyed a brief period of independence from 1918 to 1919, then was taken over by the USSR and declared a Soviet Republic. During the Soviet era, Russian was the main language of education and employment and Ukrainian was sidelined.
Ukraine declared independence in 1991. Since then many Ukrainian émigrés have returned to Ukraine, particularly from central Asia and Siberia.

Всі люди народжуються вільними і рівними у своїй гідності та правах. Вони наділені розумом і совістю і повинні діяти у відношенні один до одного в дусі братерства.

Хмариноньки-хмаринки,
Химерні, волохаті,
Вмостились на хвилинку
У хлопчика на хаті.
