The attorney certifies that the translation matches the original and verifies the registered translator's signature — for visas, embassies, universities, and courts.
Certified translation by Notary Public is the process in which an authorized attorney certifies that ‘this translated document is faithful to the original, and the signing translator is genuinely registered.’ It is required for visa applications, overseas marriage registration, study applications, property transfers, and foreign court proceedings.

Translator-certified translation is signed by the translator themselves — sufficient for less formal use such as some educational institutions. Notary-certified translation carries greater legal weight because a third-party attorney verifies that ‘this translator is real, registered, and signed before me’ — required by embassies and foreign governments demanding higher assurance.
