Certified Finnish apostille translation services for global use

We provide a complete one-stop solution for Finnish apostille needs: translation, certification, notarization, and obtaining the apostille. This integrated service eliminates the need to coordinate multiple vendors or government offices. Our team manages each step so your documents are prepared correctly, submitted promptly, and returned with the required legalization.

For U.S.-bound cases, we prepare a certified translation compliant with USCIS and U.S. government standards, notarize the translator’s certification, and coordinate with the appropriate Secretary of State to secure the apostille. For documents destined for Finland or other countries, we follow the local authority’s apostille or legalization requirements to ensure acceptance.

You can request both directions—Finnish to English or English to Finnish—for immigration, study, work, court filings, corporate use, and more. Apostilles are recognized by 120+ countries that are parties to the Hague Apostille Convention, ensuring worldwide acceptance. Where apostille is not applicable, we advise on the equivalent legalization process.

Common documents include diplomas and transcripts, powers of attorney, corporate documents (articles of incorporation, certificates of good standing), vital records (birth, marriage, a death certificate), and affidavits. We carefully reproduce stamps, seals, and formatting in the translation to meet the expectations of reviewing authorities.

If you only need translation, or if you already have an apostille and require a certified translation of the apostilled document, we can help. Learn more on our certified translation services page or explore our apostille translation services overview for additional details.

Step 1 — Translation: Upload clear scans or photos through our secure portal. We assign a vetted Finnish legal translator with subject-matter expertise. Certified translations typically take 24–48 hours, depending on length and complexity. Standard translation is priced from $0.06 per word, while certified translations start at $32.90 per page.

Step 2 — Notarization: Once the translation and signed translator’s affidavit are ready, we arrange notarization, usually the same business day. Notarization authenticates the translator’s signature, which is a prerequisite for apostille certification in most jurisdictions.

Step 3 — Apostille: We coordinate with the appropriate Secretary of State (or competent authority) to issue the apostille. Timelines vary by state and season, typically 1–3 weeks. Expedited options may be available depending on the authority’s current processing times and your location.

Delivery and formats: We can provide secure digital copies for preview, then ship hard copies where required by the requesting authority. If you are preparing a passport application or travel file, consider our passport translation service for a consistent, compliant package.

Ongoing support: Our customer care team tracks your order at every stage. With a 98% customer return rate, Kings of Translation is known for clear updates, predictable timelines, and help with special formatting requirements, attachments, and cover sheets often requested by government agencies and universities.

Accuracy matters in Finnish legal texts, where terminology, case endings, and formatting must align precisely with the source. Our translators specialize in legal and government documents and follow a rigorous QA process: translation, independent review, certification, and final compliance check for apostille submission. We mirror formatting, reproduce stamps and seals, and include a signed Certificate of Accuracy.

Kings of Translation is an ATA member with BBB A+ accreditation. Our certified translations are accepted by USCIS, courts, universities, and professional boards, and our apostille services are recognized by authorities in Hague Convention countries. We maintain strict confidentiality and secure data handling throughout the process.

Transparent pricing means no surprises: certified Finnish translation from $32.90 per page, standard translation from $0.06 per word, plus notarization and apostille processing fees. We’ll provide a clear quote before work begins and keep you updated on processing times, including any expedited options available with the relevant authority.

Use cases include immigration filings to the U.S., submitting corporate documents to partners abroad, validating academic credentials for international admissions, or presenting court documents across borders. Whether you are moving from Finland to the United States, or from the U.S. to Finland, our service ensures your paperwork is recognized without delays.

If you need multiple documents handled at once, we coordinate a unified submission to save time. Our team also advises on whether an apostille, legalization, or consular authentication is required for non-Hague destinations, helping you avoid rejections and resubmissions.
