Business Translation Services
With 10 years’ experience translating for organizations in the Cayman Islands, the US and South America, and years of prior work experience in the financial industry, I am very much at home translating a wide range of business documents from general client correspondence to Articles of Association and Board Minutes, as well as contracts and agreements of all types.
Personal Documents
I can translate birth certificates, marriage certificates, passport pages, Visas, driver’s licenses, police clearance records, letters of recommendation and work/travel permits for individuals. However please note my fees do not include the costs of notarizing the translations.
