Official-document enquiries

Embassy, consular and military-service document translation

If an embassy or consulate asks for a Turkish-English or English-Turkish translation, send the document and its written requirements. Yesim can check suitability, the requested certification and the price before accepting the work.

Documents for review can include civil certificates, powers of attorney, official letters, and military-service status or discharge records (askerlik durum belgesi and terhis belgesi). Say which office will receive the translation, the application purpose, the language required and your deadline.

Check the receiving office's requirements before paying for a translation. It decides whether an external translation is needed and whether a consulate-registered translator, notarisation, an apostille or consular certification is required. These are different from a translator's signed accuracy statement; NRPSI registration alone does not establish consular registration.

This is an independent translation service, not an embassy or consulate, and acceptance is not guaranteed. For Turkish consular matters, check the official consular instructions and, where required, the official consular translator register. Yesim provides translation, not military-service eligibility advice or consular approval.

    The receiving organisation

    Say whether it is for a court, solicitor, university, employer, UKVI, local authority or another organisation.

    State when the organisation needs it. Yesim will confirm what is achievable before accepting the work.

Certification in the UK

What a certified translation normally includes

The UK does not have a single government system of “sworn translators”. Depending on the recipient, a translation can include a signed accuracy statement, date, stamp and the translator’s full details. Always ask the receiving organisation what it needs; GOV.UK explains the general certification approach.

Direct answers

Turkish document translation questions

Do you translate Turkish to English and English to Turkish documents?

Yesim provides document translation in both directions. Turkish-to-English requests can include civil certificates, population records, court papers, qualifications and employment records. English-to-Turkish requests can include English birth or marriage certificates, final orders and existing powers of attorney.

State the language you need and who will receive the translation. Requirements for UK use are not automatically the same as those of a Turkish authority or consulate. This is translation of existing documents, not document issuance, notarisation or consular approval. See the certified-document service or send the complete document for a quote.

Can you translate a nüfus kayıt örneği or vukuatlı nüfus kayıt örneği into English?

Yesim can review your Turkish population register extract for an English translation. Send a readable copy of every page, including any notes, stamps, QR codes and continuation pages. If your document has a düşünceler (remarks) section, include it rather than cropping the page to names and dates.

Tell her which organisation will receive it, your deadline and whether its checklist requests a certified translation. If you already have an English or multilingual document, send that version and check whether the receiving organisation accepts it before paying for another translation. This guide does not decide which type of population record your application needs or whether it replaces a birth or marriage certificate.

Upload your population record for a price and delivery-time quote.

What should I send for a translation quote?

Send a readable scan, photo or PDF of every page, including text on the reverse, stamps and notes. Add the translation direction, receiving organisation and your actual deadline. If the organisation supplied written translation requirements, include them.

The website quote form accepts up to 10 separate files, with a combined limit of 7 MB. A JPEG contains one image; a PDF can contain several pages. If your phone shows a four-photo gallery, attach each image separately or send a PDF containing all the pages—not just a screenshot of the first photo. The selected-file count counts files, not document pages. If your files exceed the form limit, use the WhatsApp or email contact option instead.

Will the translation be certified?

For certified translation orders, a signed certification statement, date, stamp and Yesim’s translator details are included in the agreed price. Check the receiving organisation’s exact requirements before work begins.

Can you help with translation for an embassy or consulate?

Send the document and the receiving office's written requirements so Yesim can check suitability before quoting. Confirm whether an external translation is needed and whether the office requires a consulate-registered translator, notarisation, an apostille or consular certification. This is an independent translation service; consular approval and acceptance are not guaranteed.

Can Turkish military-service records be translated into English?

Send every page of your askerlik durum belgesi, terhis belgesi or related official record, together with the receiving organisation and deadline. Yesim will review it and confirm suitability, price and any requested certification before accepting the translation. Military-service eligibility advice is not provided.

Can I request translation of only selected pages?

Tell Yesim the exact page numbers and send the complete document for review. The receiving organisation may require a full translation, so agree the scope before work begins. Reviewing the whole document does not mean every page must be translated; the quote will state the agreed pages.

Can you translate Turkish documents for a UK family or spouse visa?

Yesim can review Turkish marriage certificates, population records, divorce documents and financial evidence for translation. GOV.UK's family-visa checklist requires a certified translation of supporting documents not in English or Welsh. Send your application checklist so the required documents and certification can be confirmed. This service does not provide immigration advice or guarantee visa approval. Read the official family-visa document checklist.

Can Turkish diplomas and transcripts be translated for work or study?

Send the diploma, the complete transcript and the receiving organisation's checklist. Universities, employers and assessment services set their own requirements. Ecctis Industry Skills Statements, which can support certain construction and trade-card applications, require professional signed and stamped translations when documents are not in English. Yesim can review your Turkish documents and confirm the translation scope; she does not issue qualifications, equivalence statements or trade cards. Check the specific Ecctis Industry Skills requirements.

Is an apostille the same as a certified translation?

No. An apostille authenticates an official signature or seal; a translation explains the document in another language. Ask the receiving organisation whether it needs the original, an apostille and a translation of the apostille itself. Send all attached pages for review. Yesim provides translation, not apostille issuance or notarisation. The UK Legalisation Office does not legalise documents issued outside the UK. Read the official UK legalisation guidance.

Can you translate Turkish death certificates, burial permits and cemetery documents?

Send the complete document and the receiving organisation's written requirements. Yesim can review Turkish-English or English-Turkish death certificates, burial permits and cemetery records, then confirm suitability, certification, price and delivery time. GOV.UK requires a certified English translation of a foreign death certificate when bringing a body home to England or Wales; other uses and jurisdictions have their own requirements. This is document translation, not funeral arrangements, repatriation, permit issuance or consular approval. Check the official guidance for deaths abroad.

Does a Turkish criminal-record certificate (adli sicil kaydı) need an English translation?

First check whether the receiving organisation accepts an English-language record obtained through e-Devlet. The Turkish Ministry of Justice says criminal-record results are available in English and other languages. For UK immigration routes where an overseas criminal-record certificate is required, Home Office guidance says a certificate not in English must be accompanied by a compliant translation. If you only have a Turkish certificate or the recipient asks for an independent certified translation, send every page and its checklist. Yesim can confirm suitability, certification, price and delivery time; she does not issue police certificates or provide immigration advice. Check the current Ministry of Justice and GOV.UK guidance.
