Professional Finnish apostille translation and UK legalisation services

We provide an end-to-end solution for Finnish documents requiring apostille certification. Our process covers professional translation, certification with a translator’s declaration, notarisation where needed, and obtaining the apostille from the UK Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO). You won’t need to visit multiple offices—our team coordinates every step for a smooth, reliable result.

Apostilles are commonly requested when people move between countries for work, study, marriage, or investment. Typical documents include birth and marriage certificates, academic diplomas and transcripts, HMRC letters, ACRO police certificates, powers of attorney, company incorporation papers, and board resolutions. Under the Hague Apostille Convention, apostilled documents are recognised by 120+ countries worldwide.

Our standard timeline is straightforward: translation in 24–48 hours, same-day notarisation (when required), and FCDO apostille in approximately 1–3 weeks, depending on workload and chosen delivery method. If you already have an apostille, we can translate the apostille certificate itself. If you need us to obtain an apostille, we legalise the translated and certified set for official use abroad.

If your destination country is not a Hague member, we can advise on consular legalisation steps after the FCDO stage. For guidance on adjacent paperwork, see our apostille translation services or browse our broader certified translation services.

Our certified translations include a translator’s declaration, company letterhead, contact details, date, and signature. This format is widely accepted by the UK Home Office, HMCTS courts, universities, banks, and professional regulators. Internationally, our credentials are recognised by authorities and consulates, and our certified translations are also accepted by USCIS in the United States for immigration filings.

Pricing is clear and transparent: certified translation from £29.90 per page and standard translation from £0.05 per word. Notarisation and apostille fees are billed separately and vary by authority and courier options. You’ll receive an itemised quote upfront—no surprises. As a BBB A+ accredited agency and ATA member, Kings of Translation maintains rigorous quality control and customer-first support.

We deliver secure PDFs with tamper-evident features and can post hard copies on request using trackable shipping. For international moves, we also translate already apostilled documents or obtain apostilles after translation—whichever path your case requires. If your travel plans include identity checks, you may also need passport translation.

Our global acceptance focus means your Finnish and English documents are prepared to meet the expectations of British authorities and institutions overseas. With native linguists and domain experts, we ensure legal, academic, and corporate terminology is accurate, consistent, and fit for official purpose.
