Why choose us

  • Sworn Russian-Turkish translators

    Translations by translators sworn before a Turkish notary, so they can be notarized and accepted by Turkish authorities.

  • Notary and apostille handled

    We arrange notarization and, for documents used abroad, an apostille under the Hague Convention.

  • Nothing lost in translation

    Names, dates, seals and legal or technical terms carried faithfully between Russian and Turkish.

How it works

  1. 1

    Send your document

    Share a clear scan or photo by WhatsApp or email and tell us the direction and how the translation will be used.

  2. 2

    Sworn translation

    A sworn translator translates the document, preserving names, dates, seals and terminology exactly.

  3. 3

    Notarization

    Where the receiving authority requires it, a Turkish notary certifies the sworn translation.

  4. 4

    Apostille and delivery

    For use abroad we arrange an apostille under the Hague Convention, then deliver digital and, if needed, hard copies.

What we'll need from you

  • A clear, complete scan or photo of every page (no cropped edges).
  • The exact spelling of names as they appear in a passport or ID.
  • The country/authority the translation is for, and whether notary or apostille is needed.

What affects the cost

Document type and length
Priced per page or per word depending on the document.
Direction and language
Common documents cost less than rare or highly technical ones.
Certification level
Translation only, notarized, or notarized plus apostille.
Turnaround
Standard delivery, or urgent/same-day where the workload allows.

Every document is priced individually - contact us for a tailored quote.

A sworn Russian to Turkish translation is made by a translator who has taken an oath before a Turkish notary. That oath is what lets a notary certify the translation, and it is why Turkish offices, courts and consulates accept it where an ordinary translation is not enough.

Documents we most often translate from Russian

  • svidetelstvo o rozhdenii and svidetelstvo o brake, birth and marriage certificates
  • spravka o nesudimosti, the criminal record certificate
  • diplom with its prilozhenie, and attestat for school records
  • divorce certificates and court decisions
  • notarial powers of attorney and company documents

Names and script

Cyrillic has more than one Latin transliteration standard, so Sergey, Sergei and Serguei all appear in real files, and the passport uses the ICAO form. Russian names also carry a patronymic, which Turkish records have no field for and which is sometimes mistaken for a middle name or a second surname. We keep the passport spelling and set the patronymic out explicitly so it cannot be misread.

Before you send it

Russian-language documents from different states are authenticated by whichever country issued them, so a Kazakh certificate does not follow the Russian route. Confirm the issuing country first, because it decides who authenticates the document before translation.

What happens next

Send the document with the office it is going to and your deadline, and we will confirm what it needs and quote a fixed price. Where the receiving office requires it we arrange notarization, and for use abroad an apostille. We work in both directions, Russian to Turkish and Turkish to Russian. If you are not sure which level of certification applies, see sworn vs certified vs notarized translation.

Frequently asked questions

How is the patronymic handled in Turkish?

It is translated and labelled as a patronymic rather than folded into the surname or given name, so the Turkish office can see which part of the name is which.

Do you translate documents from Kazakhstan and Ukraine?

Yes, where the document is in Russian. The translation is the same; the authentication step belongs to the issuing country, not to Russia.

Do you also translate from Turkish into Russian?

Yes. We work in both directions - Russian to Turkish and Turkish to Russian.
