FAQ

Do you issue invoices?

What is the profile of the translators ABAM works with?

ABAM works exclusively with translators with a degree (as a minimum requirement) in languages, translation or its equivalent. Most of them are expert translators recognized by the High Court of Justice.

What is a certified translation?

A certified translation is a translation, that it is delivered printed with the seal and signature of an authorized expert, that is, it is a translation which is faithful to the original and drafted by specific legal guidelines and can, therefore, be used as a substitution for the original.

 
How is the translation fee calculated?

Image editing is done by using standard editing software (Photoshop, Word, and so on); this service is usually faster to do, and the cost is per hour.

Desktop Publishing (DTP) is used when documents are to be printed or for illustrations within a website. Delivery is in Quark or InDesign files.

This service is quoted per sheet and is more expensive than image editing.

How are documents delivered?

In the case of certified translations, the delivery of the certified translation is a physical, i.e., printed. Non-certified translations are delivered in the format in which they are received, except for documents received in PDF. PDF files are provided in Word format so that the client has access to edit them if necessary.

 
Does the price include the production of the translation in the same format as the original?

It depends on the complexity of the text. When applicable, image editing is quoted separately. (All additional charges are communicated to the client, and the client's authorization is required before starting).

Which documents require an apostille?

ABAM Translations recommends that you go to the entity that requested said documents and follow the instructions given by that institution.

Where is the apostille obtained?

ABAM does not provide apostilles for documents. Apostille is obtained from the authority of the corresponding state or federal entity from which the document originates. Please click on the links below for information on apostilling public documents:

If a state authority has issued the document you intend to apostille, you must apply for an apostille with the corresponding state government office.

Why do I need to hire a professional translator and not just someone who speaks the language?

A professional translator has the knowledge and expertise required to produce a high-quality translation with the right vocabulary and tone.


 A non-professional translator can make mistakes that can range from amusing to dangerous, which may compromise the intended message.
