Bulgarian translator

We deliver as standard in the official Cyrillic script to the Bulgarian spelling conventions of the IBE. For travel documents and passport names we apply the transliterated Latin form under the Bulgarian Transliteration Act (2009). For registration purposes we follow the spelling in your identity document, so all of your documents stay consistent.

The UK has no sworn-translator institute, so there is no "sworn translator" as a legal office here. For official acceptance our Bulgarian translation agency provides certified translation: a signed and dated statement of accuracy from the translator or the agency, with our contact details. Where a body asks for more, this can be escalated to notarisation by a solicitor or notary public, or to an apostille or legalisation through the Foreign, Commonwealth and Development Office (FCDO). Bulgaria is an EU member; for use within the EU a certified translation is usually enough, while use outside the EU often needs an apostille (Hague Convention, 1961). We confirm in the quote which level your receiving authority requires.

Birth and marriage certificates, diplomas and transcripts, A1 portable documents for social security, employment contracts, driving licences and police certificates (свидетелство за съдимост). For recognition of Bulgarian qualifications in the UK we prepare translations suited to a UK ENIC assessment. We confirm the approach and any certification per document in the quote.

Yes. We translate applications, progress reports and final reports for Horizon Europe, ERDF, ESF+ and cohesion funds. Bulgarian is one of the 24 official EU languages; we follow the Interinstitutional Style Guide and the EU's IATE terminology for consistent, recognisable wording.

ISO 639 treats Macedonian (mk) as a separate language, but linguistically Bulgarian (bg) and Macedonian are part of the same dialect continuum. The grammatical structure and core vocabulary are closely related; orthographic and standardisation choices differ. For official documents we confirm the requested source language up front, so the right translator is assigned.

On working days you receive a quote within 1 hour, with a first indication of price and lead time. The lead time for the translation itself depends on document type, volume, language pair and any required certification, and is confirmed in the quote. For tight deadlines we confirm a workable rush schedule up front rather than promising a fixed turnaround.

A Bulgarian translation agency takes the coordination off your hands. We select the specialist who fits your document and sector, arrange certification, notarisation or legalisation where an authority requires it, and have the work checked by a second reviewer where the legal field, risk profile or volume requires it. You keep one point of contact for script, transliteration, terminology, scheduling and delivery, all under a single quote. A skilled freelance translator does excellent work too; the difference an agency adds is bringing those moving parts together so you are not managing them separately.
