Every EnLatin Certified Translation order is treated as a unique commission and processed through our Three-Tier Philological Review, EnLatin's platform-exclusive system of Translation, Review, and Finalization. Each completed order includes a signed certification of accuracy, an official EnLatin stamp, and a unique order code that allows for third-party verification well beyond delivery. Latin diploma translations, as well as civil and vital records, also include a signed Statement of Truth by default. For other document types, a Statement of Truth is provided when required and tailored to each institutional specification. This framework safeguards translation accuracy, protects source documents through secure handling, and provides lasting accountability through independent verification. Standard certified translations are delivered within five business days. Expedited options range from four business days to 24 hours. Same-day delivery is also available for orders placed in the morning, subject to daily capacity.
EnLatin unequivocally opposes the use of machine translation due to its detrimental impact on quality and expected value of work, in passion of always delivering the absolute best to its clients.

Description: Specialist translation of Latin-language university diplomas, maintaining strict philological fidelity to the source's syntax, institutional terminology, and formulaic wording. Every diploma passes through our Three-Tier Philological Review: the senior philologist translates the diploma, a second philologist reviews it against the issuing university's formulary, and the senior philologist completes finalization and certification. Dates expressed using the Kalends, Nones, and Ides are converted to their exact modern-calendar equivalents. See how Latin dates are read. Degree titles are rendered according to the same philological method. See how Latin degree titles are rendered in English.

Quick Answers
What is a certified translation?
A certified translation is a translation accompanied by a signed certification confirming that it is complete and accurate. Government agencies, universities, and courts commonly require certified translations for official submissions. EnLatin's certified translations are produced under translation processes certified to ISO 17100:2015. See supported document types.
How long does a translation take?
Standard certified translations are delivered within five business days. Expedited options include four-, three-, and two-business-day delivery, 24-hour service, and same-day delivery for morning orders, subject to daily capacity. Your binding delivery deadline is calculated from payment confirmation. Latin-language diploma translations follow a separate commitment: typically delivered within a few hours and always within 24 hours, at no additional charge. Read more about delivery.
Which languages do you support?
EnLatin offers certified translation services involving Latin, English, Greek, Italian, German, Turkish, French, Portuguese, Russian, and Spanish. View all supported source-and-target language pairs.
Is my information secure?
Yes, absolutely. Data in transit is protected by HTTPS/TLS encryption; files are encrypted at rest, and role-based access controls restrict access for staff and translators. Card payments are processed by PayU/Prosus, a PCI DSS Level 1-certified payment service provider. Privacy Notice · Translation Ethics.
Why is machine translation unreliable for academic Latin?
Academic and diploma Latin combines rich inflection, flexible word order, lexical ambiguity, abbreviations, and institution-specific formulae. These features make grammatical relationships and intended meanings difficult to infer from word forms alone. Machine-translation systems can produce fluent wording while misreading syntax or overlooking the historical and institutional context needed for a correct scholarly rendering. Explore Latin translation.
What methodology is used for transcribing illegible historical diplomas or manuscripts?
Transcription combines rigorous paleographic analysis with comparison against contemporaneous institutional records and parallel texts. Experienced philologists examine letterforms, abbreviations, and textual damage in their historical and documentary context to reconstruct the text accurately. See how we handle historical documents.
