About this language pair

English and Swedish: one pair, two directions

From English into Swedish you translate for business partners, clients and authorities abroad; from Swedish into English for UK authorities, banks and employers. In both directions a native specialist translator with domain experience works on your text.

Where an authority asks for a certified translation, we bring in a sworn translator. The translation carries the required declaration, signature and stamp, and we arrange the Apostille or consular legalisation your destination country demands.

Translation from English to Swedish

For the English → Swedish (sv-SE) direction, we deliver translations for business correspondence with Swedish partners, supplier documentation for Volvo and Scania, pharma material for AstraZeneca-EMA registration, cleantech reports and marketing content for the Swedish market. Standard Swedish (sv-SE), Stockholm-based norm regulated by Språkrådet.

Translation from Swedish to English

For the Swedish → English direction, we deliver translations of Swedish documents for UK authorities: birth and marriage certificates, divorce decrees, diplomas, court judgments, financial statements and supplier contracts. Certified via ITI/CIOL-registered translators on request where the UK authority requires it.

In practice

How such a project runs

A company opens a branch abroad: website, employment contracts and product documentation go from English into Swedish, while incorporation documents and bank records travel the other way. One project manager guards terminology and planning in both directions, and confirms per document whether certification or legalisation is required.

Do I need a certified English-Swedish translation?
For Home Office visa applications, family courts, civil registries and naturalisation procedures, the UK authority typically requires a certified translation. We deliver certified on request via ITI/CIOL-registered translators in both directions.
Which variety of Swedish does Ecrivus deliver for this direction?
We deliver Standard Swedish (sv-SE), the Stockholm-based norm. For projects targeting Finland (Swedish-speaking Finnish municipalities, sv-FI), we deliver Finland Swedish on request.
What is the difference between Swedish, Norwegian and Danish?
Three distinct official languages forming a Scandinavian dialect continuum with strong written mutual intelligibility. We never substitute them automatically.
Does a Swedish document need an apostille for use in the UK?
Sweden has been party to the Hague Apostille Convention (1961) since 1999. Swedish documents can be legalised via apostille (issued by länsstyrelsen or a notary).
How quickly will I receive a quote for an English-Swedish translation?
You will receive a response within 30 minutes on working days.
