Who signs the translation?
A named professional translator, who signs with their full name, contact details and qualifications. That's the information Home Affairs guidance asks for when a translation is made outside Australia.
NAATI Certified
NAATI Certified Translation for Australian Visa and Citizenship Applications
NAATI certified English translations, signed by a named professional translator with their full name, contact details and qualifications, for Department of Home Affairs visa and citizenship applications and private use.
NAATI certified translation for Australian visas starts with a simple rule from the Department of Home Affairs: any document that isn't in English needs an English translation. For translations made outside Australia, its guidance asks that the translator is identified by full name, contact details and details of their qualifications. We offer NAATI certified translation, and every VisaDocTranslation order for Australia is signed by a named professional translator with exactly those details, at £41.99 per page with next-working-day delivery.
This service covers Australian visas, citizenship and private use. It is not suitable for driving licence conversion, births, deaths and marriages registries, university admission, DFAT apostilles or Family Court proceedings. If your translation is for one of those, please don't order it here.

What does the Department of Home Affairs need from a translation?
A full English translation of each document not in English. For translations made outside Australia, Home Affairs guidance asks for the translator's full name, contact details, and details of their qualifications and experience in the language.
A named-translator translation is built for that requirement. The translator who reviews your document signs it personally, and the translation carries their full name, contact details and qualifications, so a case officer can see exactly who stands behind it. Every translation is complete, stamps, seals and handwritten entries included, and it's quality-checked against the source before delivery. It arrives as a PDF, ready to attach in ImmiAccount.
Requirements vary by visa subclass, and Australia numbers its subclasses with the enthusiasm of a stamp collector, so check the document checklist for yours before you order.
- A complete English translation of the whole document
- The named translator's full name and signature
- The translator's contact details
- The translator's qualifications
What is this translation not suitable for?
It is not suitable for driving licence conversion, births, deaths and marriages registries, university admission, DFAT apostilles or Family Court proceedings. Those bodies set their own translator requirements, which this service doesn't meet.
We'd rather tell you now than have a translation rejected later. If you're registering a birth or marriage with a state registry, applying to an Australian university, getting a document apostilled through DFAT, filing in the Family Court or converting a driving licence, check that body's translator requirements and use a translator they accept. Our Australian translations are for Home Affairs visa and citizenship applications and private use.
- Driving licence conversion
- Births, deaths and marriages registries
- University admission
- DFAT apostilles
- Family Court proceedings
How much does a translation for an Australian visa cost?
£41.99 per page, delivered by the next working day. There is no rush option because a named translator reviews and signs every translation. Australian orders are charged in pounds sterling.
The price covers the translation, the named translator's sign-off and a quality check, with no extra certification or PDF fee, and every document includes 2 free revisions. Your card provider converts the sterling amount at checkout. Upload all your documents together and the online quote form shows the total before you pay.
Which documents are usually translated for Australian visas?
Civil records such as birth, marriage and divorce certificates, police certificates, and financial, employment and identity documents are the most common for partner, skilled, visitor and citizenship applications.
We translate from 120+ languages into English. A partner visa often leans on a marriage certificate and birth certificates; a skilled visa on payslips and employment references that back up your work history. If you're unsure whether a document needs translating, look for any text that isn't in English, stamps and seals included. If there is some, Home Affairs will expect it translated, even if the stamp only says "received".
- Birth, marriage and divorce certificates
- Police certificates
- Employment references and payslips
- Bank statements and tax records
- Identity documents and change-of-name records

Frequently Asked Questions About NAATI Translation for Australia
Do you offer NAATI certified translation?
Yes, we offer NAATI certified translation for Australian visa and citizenship applications. Each translation is signed by a named professional translator with their full name, contact details and qualifications.
Can I use the translation for an Australian citizenship application?
Yes. Citizenship applications are one of the uses this service covers, alongside visas and private use.
Can I use it to register a birth or marriage in Australia?
No. Births, deaths and marriages registries have their own translator requirements, and this service isn't suitable for them.
Can I use it for an Australian university application?
No. University admission is not covered. Check the university's translation requirements and use a translator they accept.
Can I use it to convert my driving licence in Australia?
No. Driving licence conversion is not covered. State and territory licensing authorities set their own translation rules.
Is there a rush option?
No. Every Australian translation is reviewed and signed by a named translator, so there's no rush tier. Standard delivery is by the next working day.
Why is the price higher than a standard certified translation?
Because a named translator personally reviews and signs each translation with their own details, rather than it being certified by the company. That's the format Home Affairs guidance describes for translations made outside Australia.
What if a case officer queries the translation?
Every document includes 2 free revisions. Send us the case officer's wording by WhatsApp or email and we'll update the translation.
