Translator's declaration

Also known as: Декларация переводчика (тцhаhир переводчика) · תצהיר מתרגם

What is a translator's declaration?

Written declaration by the translator that the translation they performed is accurate, certified by a notary.

The Notaries Law of 1976 allows a translator to sign a declaration (תצהיר) that the translation is accurate and a notary to certify the translator's signature. This is used when the notary does not speak one of the languages. Before ordering the translation, ask the office where you will submit the document whether it accepts this declaration or requires another form of notarial certification.
