Why Certified Translation Matters
Croatian institutions do not accept unofficial or self-made translations. Only translations completed by a court-certified translator (sudski tumač) are legally valid.
My certified translations include:
- Official round stamp and signature
- Translator’s declaration of accuracy
- Binding of the original and translation
- Guaranteed acceptance by Croatian authorities
