Greek–English sworn translations for official use
Do you need a sworn translation from Greek into English or from English into Greek for a government authority, court, university, notary, or another official institution? The Native Translator provides professional Greek–English translation services for individuals, businesses, law firms, public authorities, and international organizations.
Official documents often require more than a standard translation. Depending on where the document will be submitted, it may need to be translated or certified by a sworn, authorized, or otherwise officially recognized translator. We select the appropriate translator according to the destination country, intended use, and requirements of the receiving institution.
Our Greek–English translators have specialist expertise in legal, financial, medical, technical, academic, and commercial documentation. Particular attention is paid to names, dates, stamps, signatures, reference numbers, legal terminology, and other details that must correspond accurately with the original document.
Our translation workflows follow ISO 17100, the international quality standard for professional translation services. Confidential documents are handled through information-security procedures based on ISO 27001, the international standard for information security management.
Upload your documents securely online and receive a free, no-obligation quotation in approximately 60 seconds. If you have questions about your documents or certification requirements, you are also welcome to contact us by email.
What is a sworn Greek–English translation?
A sworn translation is an official translation prepared or certified by a translator who has the authorization required under the applicable national system.
The terminology and certification procedures differ between countries. A receiving authority may request a sworn translation, certified translation, court-authorized translation, or another officially recognized form of translation.
For this reason, the requirements of the institution receiving the document should always be taken into consideration before the translation is prepared.
Greek to English and English to Greek
We provide professional translations in both directions:
- Greek to English
- English to Greek
Whether your documents originate in Greece, Cyprus, the United Kingdom, the United States, or another English-speaking jurisdiction, we match the assignment with a translator experienced in the relevant language variant and subject area.
For English translations, terminology can also be adapted to British or American English when appropriate for the intended use.
Documents we translate
Our sworn Greek–English translation services cover a wide variety of official documents, including:
- Birth certificates
- Marriage certificates
- Divorce decrees
- Death certificates
- Criminal record certificates
- Diplomas and academic transcripts
- Employment certificates

Every document is translated carefully with close attention to both its content and formal structure.
Legal Greek–English translations
Legal translation requires specialist knowledge of both terminology and the legal systems involved. A legal concept used in Greek law may not have an exact equivalent in an English-speaking jurisdiction, so a purely literal translation can be misleading.
Our legal translators work with contracts, court decisions, litigation documents, corporate records, inheritance documents, powers of attorney, notarial deeds, compliance materials, and other legal texts.
The objective is to preserve the meaning of the original while using precise and appropriate legal terminology in the target language.
Greek–English translations for individuals
Individuals frequently require sworn Greek–English translations for immigration, citizenship applications, marriage, employment, education, inheritance matters, property transactions, or other official procedures.
We help ensure that documents such as certificates, diplomas, court decisions, and personal records are translated accurately and in the form required for their intended purpose.
Greek–English translations for businesses and law firms
Companies and legal professionals often need Greek–English translations for international transactions, corporate registrations, litigation, contracts, compliance, financial reporting, and cross-border business.
We translate agreements, articles of association, commercial registers, annual reports, tenders, legal correspondence, financial documentation, and other business-critical materials.
For larger projects, terminology can be managed consistently across multiple documents and assignments.
Quality assurance according to ISO 17100
Accuracy is particularly important for sworn, legal, and official translations. Errors in names, dates, financial amounts, terminology, or legal wording can delay an application or create problems when documents are submitted to an authority.
Our translation workflows follow ISO 17100, the international standard specifically developed for professional translation services. The standard establishes requirements for translator qualifications, subject-matter competence, project management, terminology management, revision, and quality assurance.
Assignments are allocated to qualified translators with relevant linguistic and specialist experience. Quality checks cover accuracy, completeness, terminology, consistency, grammar, formatting, and suitability for the intended use. Where applicable within the workflow, the translation is independently reviewed by another qualified linguist.
This structured process provides an additional level of quality assurance for important Greek–English documents.
Information security according to ISO 27001
Documents submitted for sworn translation frequently contain sensitive information such as passport details, financial data, legal matters, family information, medical records, or confidential corporate information.
Our document-handling processes are based on ISO 27001, the international standard for information security management. This framework focuses on systematic risk management, secure information handling, controlled access, clearly defined security responsibilities, and continuous improvement of security procedures.
Access to project documents is restricted to authorized individuals involved in completing the assignment. Secure systems and controlled workflows help protect confidential information throughout the translation process.
