Translation Services in Thuringia

Erfurt, the state capital, is the seat of the Federal Labour Court, and the Thüringer Oberlandesgericht sits in Jena. Weimar combines the Bauhaus University and the Franz Liszt University of Music with UNESCO-listed classical sites. At Wartburg Castle in Eisenach, Martin Luther translated the New Testament into German.

Optics, photonics, and precision-engineering companies need datasheets, software interfaces, patents, and research papers translated with exact terminology. Our multilingual translation agency pairs each text with a native linguist from the same field, and full-service translation services also cover help content and multilingual websites.

Residents and international students typically need diplomas, marriage and birth records, and employment references translated for a Standesamt, an Ausländerbehörde, the University of Erfurt, or a US institution. Companies that hire abroad often need the same documents for qualification checks.

Official certified translations carry a signed certificate of accuracy and suit foreign recipients such as USCIS, a US state court, a European consulate, or an Italian Comune. A German court such as the Landgericht in Erfurt, Gera, Meiningen, or Mühlhausen may instead ask for a translation by a sworn translator appointed by a German regional court. The receiving authority decides what it accepts, so say where the document is going.

Apostilles are issued by the authority in the country where the document originated, never by the translator. We can translate the apostille page together with the document, which helps when a degree or civil record travels between Thuringia and the US or another Hague Convention state.

Interpreting needs in Thuringia include conferences at the universities in Jena, Erfurt, and Ilmenau, panel discussions at cultural venues in Weimar, business visits to optics and engineering firms, and appointments at Jena University Hospital. Our expert interpreting services cover consecutive work for visits and meetings and simultaneous work for conferences, with interpreters traveling to the venue. Remote sessions by video suit shorter calls.
