You do not have to be in Georgia to get an online certified translation made in Tbilisi. Clients regularly order from abroad, as our Google reviews show: they send a scan, pay online, and the notarized translation waits for them, or for whoever collects it, in Tbilisi. This guide explains how it works, what can be done fully remotely, and when someone has to bring the original.
How ordering from abroad works
- Send your documents through the order form on our homepage, on WhatsApp or through our Telegram bot. A clear phone photo is enough.
- We confirm the price by email before any work starts.
- You pay online by payment link or bank transfer.
- We translate and notarize. The translator signs the translation and a notary certifies the signature. You do not sign anything.
- You get a scan by email as soon as it is ready. The paper original is collected at our office, or delivered by courier in Tbilisi.
What can be done fully remotely
It depends on what the notary binds the translation to.
| Type of notarized translation | Remote? | When it is used |
|---|---|---|
| Translation bound to a copy of your document | Yes, from a scan | Accepted by many Georgian and foreign offices |
| Translation bound to a notarized copy | No: the notary must see the original | When the office wants the copy itself certified |
| Translation bound to the original | No: the original must be brought in | When the office keeps or checks the original |
If the original is needed, a relative or a courier can bring it to our office. Ask the office that will receive the translation which type it accepts before you order.
Getting the paper translation
- Collected by someone in Tbilisi: a relative, a friend or your lawyer can collect it.
- Collected when you arrive: several clients order before a trip and pick everything up on arrival.
- Courier in Tbilisi: to an address, an office or another notary.
- Abroad: ask us, and we will tell you the options for sending the originals.
Documents that also need an apostille
A Georgian document for use abroad usually needs an apostille from the Public Service Hall. Someone in Georgia can often submit it for you; ask the Public Service Hall what authorization they need. A foreign document for use in Georgia is apostilled in the country that issued it, before you send it to us. The details are in our apostille guide.
Price and turnaround
Ordering from abroad costs the same as ordering in person: per page by language, from 22.5 ₾ for English and Russian, plus notary certification. The price calculator shows the total, and most personal documents are ready the same day. If you are working to a deadline, see urgent translation.
Frequently asked questions
- Is a translation ordered online the same as one ordered in person?
- Yes. It is the same translation, signed by the translator and notarized in Tbilisi. Only the way you send the documents is different.
- Do I need to sign anything or come to the notary?
- No. The notary certifies the translator's signature, not yours, so you do not have to be present.
- How do I pay from abroad?
- By payment link or bank transfer. We confirm the price by email first.
- Which documents can I send as photos?
- Passports, ID cards, certificates, diplomas, bank statements and most other documents. See our guide to passport translation for what makes a good photo.
- How quickly will I get it?
- The scan arrives by email as soon as the translation is notarized, usually the same day for personal documents.
