About CertiDocs

The starting point for understanding the process and reaching the right sworn translator in Belgium

Our mission

CertiDocs was born from a simple observation: certified translation procedures are often vague even though they affect sensitive cases. Our mission is to clarify the requirements, cite the right sources and direct you to a suitable sworn translator without wasting days on avoidable back-and-forth.

How it works

You describe your document, languages and timing. CertiDocs checks the framework of the request, highlights the points that need attention and connects you with a sworn translator registered with the FPS Justice when needed. We do not replace the competent authority; we make the procedure easier to read.

In plain terms: what CertiDocs does

No fog, no inflated promises. This is the model.

What we do

We clarify the procedure, help identify the right supporting documents and point you to a suitable sworn translator.

What we do not do

We do not replace the municipality, court or administration, and we do not suggest that an incomplete file will pass as it is.

How we verify

We rely on Belgian official sources and the FPS Justice register to ground both our content and our matching.

Corrections and dates

We display a publication or review date only when it is recorded for that page. Report an error through the contact page; we verify it against the source and correct it.

Who is accountable

Editorial lead: Hiliyeh Bashir

Hiliyeh Bashir sets the editorial direction, selects official sources and coordinates corrections for CertiDocs. This responsibility is not presented as sworn-translator status or legal advice. The guides explain procedures; the competent authority decides each case.
