Need translation from French to English

Post by bapak »

Need translation from French to English of a French marriage and birth document. As it will be certified by the French Embassy as being a correct translation, it needs to be accurate.

Try the translator next door neighbour to the Kodak shop on Petchkasem Road.

Quite often embassies themselves do translations of the documents they subsequently attest.

Would the French embassy be different?
"There's no plausible or convincing reason, certainly no evidential one, to believe that there is such an entity (= deity) and that all observable phenomena, including the cosmological ones... are explicable without the hypothesis; you don't need the assumption."

Can you PM me the document. I'll have a look at it, I can't promise anything but I think I should be able to manage it.

Often the embassies have their own list of approved translators. They want to get the best translation they can if its a legal document.
Ask them.
