How Much Does Certified Translation Cost in the UK?

The cost of certified translation in the UK depends on several factors, including the language pair, document length, complexity and turnaround time. Most certified translation providers calculate prices either per page or per word. At Los Jurados UK Ltd, we follow the industry standard where one page equals approximately 250 words of source text.
For straightforward documents such as birth certificates, marriage certificates or passports, pricing is typically calculated per page. More complex documents with technical terminology or unusual formatting may be quoted per word to ensure accuracy and fairness. Language combinations also affect pricing—common languages like Spanish, French or German generally have standard rates, whilst less common language pairs may carry premium pricing due to specialist translator availability.

Price Per Page vs Price Per Word

Understanding the difference between per-page and per-word pricing helps you anticipate costs accurately. Per-page pricing is commonly used for standard official documents like certificates, passports and diplomas, where the layout is predictable and content length is relatively uniform. One page is calculated as 250 words in the source language.
Per-word pricing becomes more appropriate for lengthy documents with variable content, such as legal contracts, academic transcripts spanning multiple pages, or business correspondence. This method ensures you only pay for the actual volume of text requiring translation, particularly beneficial when documents contain significant whitespace, tables or graphics.
For UKVI and Home Office submissions, most personal documents—birth certificates, marriage certificates, police clearances—fall within the per-page category, making cost estimation straightforward and transparent.

What Is Included in the Price?

Every certified translation from Los Jurados UK Ltd includes:
  • Certified translator statement – A formal declaration confirming accuracy and completeness
  • Signature and certification wording – Professional certification that meets UK legal requirements
  • UKVI and Home Office compliance – Translations formatted and worded to satisfy all UK authority standards
  • Quality assurance check – Thorough review to eliminate errors before delivery
  • Secure digital delivery – Professional PDF format suitable for immediate submission
  • Translator credentials – Full contact details and qualifications as required by UK authorities
There are no hidden fees for standard certified translation services. What you see in your quote is what you pay.

Additional Costs (If Applicable)

Certain circumstances may result in supplementary charges beyond standard certified translation rates:
  • Urgent or same-day service – Express delivery when you need your translation within 24 hours
  • Notarisation – If your document requires notary public authentication in addition to certification
  • Hard copy delivery – Physical printed copies with original signatures sent by post or courier
  • Complex formatting – Documents requiring extensive layout recreation, tables, or specialist design elements
  • Rare language pairs – Less common languages where specialist translators command premium rates
We always inform you of any additional costs before proceeding with your translation, ensuring complete transparency throughout the process.

Why Certified Translations Cost More Than Regular Translations

Certified translations carry a higher price point than standard translation work due to the legal responsibility and regulatory requirements involved. When a translator certifies a document, they are making a legally binding statement about its accuracy and completeness. This certification must meet strict requirements set by UKVI, the Home Office and other UK authorities.
An error or omission in a certified translation can result in visa application rejection, delayed immigration processes, or official document refusal—consequences that can cost applicants far more in time, money and opportunity than the translation itself. Certified translators must maintain professional indemnity insurance, adhere to data protection regulations, and follow stringent quality standards that regular translations do not require.
Furthermore, certified translation for UK authorities demands specific formatting, wording and presentation that generic translation services cannot provide. Our translators understand precisely what UKVI case workers and Home Office officials expect to see, ensuring your documents pass scrutiny the first time.
