Court interpreter for the Romanian language – documents from Romania and Moldova

We provide translations from Romanian to Croatian and from Croatian to Romanian for employment, transport, vehicle documents, legal and personal procedures. For certified translation or official interpreting, we check suitable court interpreter availability and the receiving authority’s requirements before confirming the assignment. After reviewing the complete document, we send you a quote covering the scope, total price, deadline and delivery arrangements.

In the case of Romanian documents, the correct transmission of diacritics, official abbreviations and the name of the body is important. If the document is from the Republic of Moldova, we check whether the text is in Romanian or Russian, or whether it is bilingual. This information must be determined before the offer is made so that the language pair and possible certification can be organised properly. You will find related translations and language pairs in the overview European languages.

Romanian documents for work, transport and personal procedures

In practice, employment contracts, seniority certificates, driver’s and vehicle registration certificates, criminal record certificates and other official certificates, court rulings, registry documents and diplomas are most often translated. Business users are looking for translations of bills of lading, contracts, invoices and documentation for international transport. For official use, the recipient should confirm whether a certified translation is required.

Romanian and Moldovan documents that we most often translate

• Employment contracts, employer certificates and documentation for foreign workers
• Driving licences and vehicle registration certificates, sales contracts and insurance
• Court orders, records, powers of attorney and notary documents
• Birth and marriage certificates, residence and citizenship certificates
• Diplomas, certificates, grade transcripts and professional certificates
• Transport documents, invoices, business registers and contracts

This list covers commonly requested documents, but is not exhaustive. You can also send another type of document for Romanian language translation, we pay particular attention to Romanian diacritics, vehicle or transport documents and a consistent record of personal names.

Romanian and Russian parts of documents from Moldova

A document from Moldova does not automatically have to be in Romanian. It may contain Russian text, parallel language columns or a stamp in another language. Before we start, we go through each page and mark all the language parts that fall into scope.

Romanian letters ă, â, î, ș and ț are retained in names and titles. In the case of older scanned copies, we pay particular attention to whether ș/ş and ț/ţ are different, because a technically incorrect sign can make it difficult to search or enter official records.

Certified Romanian translation – what to check before official submission

A certified translation for official use is prepared by an appointed permanent court interpreter for Romanian, subject to availability and the receiving authority’s requirements. Before accepting the assignment, we check the purpose of submission, the type of document and the compliance of the data with the personal document. If direct certification is unavailable, we ask the relevant authority to confirm whether an alternative is acceptable. Before you order, we also check the number of copies, whether the translation must be attached to the original or a copy, and any Apostille requirements.

Oral interpretation of the Romanian language for meetings and official procedures

We arrange interpreting between Romanian and Croatian for business meetings, appointments with a notary or registrar, court and administrative proceedings and other official appointments agreed in advance. If the organiser or relevant authority requires an appointed permanent court interpreter, please tell us when you enquire. We confirm the booking once we have checked the location, date, duration, subject and any documents needed for preparation.

Authentication of the Romanian document for international use

Before using a document abroad, ask the receiving organisation whether it requires a certified translation, an Apostille, other legalisation or a combination of these. Confirm the requirements before arranging the translation. For practical guidance, see our Apostille guide.

Evaluation of the price of the Romanian translation after reviewing the document

For Romanian, document translation and interpreting are priced differently. Translation costs depend on the length and complexity of the document, legibility, stamps, certification and deadline. Interpreting costs depend on the duration, location, preparation and any travel required. The turnaround time depends on the complexity of the legal, work or traffic content and the legibility of the official markings. We confirm the possibility of urgent translation after reviewing all pages and checking whether the appropriate translator or permanent court interpreter can accept the assignment.
