How do I find a sworn translator for recognition of my degree in Germany, and what does it cost?
For a recognition application, your documents usually have to be translated into German by a sworn translator. In Germany you can find sworn translators through the official lists kept by the justice administrations of the federal states or by the local courts.
How to proceed
- Check which documents the recognition authority wants translated and in what form.
- Search the official lists for a sworn translator for Turkish–German.
- Ask several translators for a quote before you decide.
What does it cost?
There is no fixed price. Fees depend on the translator and on the length of your documents. Comparing a few quotes is the best way to get a realistic idea of the cost.
Caveat: make sure the translation meets the requirements of the authority handling your recognition before you order it, so you do not have to pay twice.
