Hello, Dan! Since the beginning of this year I have several times been asked to produce sworn translations of Russian marriage, birth, divorce and other certificates. (Must be some new UK or Russian law, I suppose). The agencies and clients all seem satisfied with an “affidavit”. I have to go to a solicitor with the translation, swear before the solicitor that it is a true translation, get the affidavit and the translation stamped and post them off. Charges no doubt vary, but the solicitor I use only charges nine pounds (recoverable from the agency of course). Maybe this would be acceptable to your client. ▲ Collapse
