services from a sworn translator?
A sworn translator is certified by government authority — not just self-declared. In Indonesia, my certification is issued by Decree of the Governor of DKI Jakarta, with dual legal translation accreditation from Universitas Indonesia. As a certified Indonesian translator, I guarantee the accuracy of every document I deliver. My certified Indonesian translation services are accepted by courts, embassies, immigration offices, and regulated institutions without question.
Legal Translation →Government Certified
Certified by Decree of the Governor of DKI Jakarta No. 1690/2007 — the highest level of translator certification in Indonesia.
Universally Accepted
Certified translations that meet the language requirements of Indonesian courts, government ministries, foreign embassies, and international institutions — accepted without question.
Bi-directional
Indonesian is the official lingua franca of a linguistically diverse nation of 270 million speakers. My certification covers both Indonesian→English and English→Indonesian legal translation — rare among sworn translators.
