Certified Translations for Galway and Connemara

Galway city and suburbs recorded 85,910 people at Census 2022, yet the city draws far more students, clinicians and engineers than its size suggests. The University of Galway and ATU enrol students from around the world, University Hospital Galway and Merlin Park make up the city's two university hospitals, and medtech firms such as Medtronic and Boston Scientific employ thousands. Documents in English or Irish need no translation for Irish bodies; everything else we translate online for Galway clients.

Galway Coverage

Why People in Galway Need Certified Translations

International Staff and Their Families. Researchers at the University of Galway and UHG doctors often move with families from outside the EEA. Their marriage and birth certificates are needed for family reunification and IRP matters; each translation is signed and dated with our contact details. First-time IRP registration is at Burgh Quay, Dublin 2.

A Semester at the University of Galway. Students coming to Galway for a semester need their home transcript and learning agreement in English so credits are recognised in both directions. We keep course codes and ECTS values unchanged and translate the rest in full.

CORU Registration for Therapists. Physiotherapists, occupational therapists and social care workers joining Galway services apply to CORU with training transcripts and practice-placement records. Translations must be stamped and signed with the translator's contact details.

Estates in Galway and Roscommon. Galway's district probate registry covers Co. Galway and Co. Roscommon. A will written in another language is admitted in terms of a translation, and the registry expects an affidavit of translator. Ask your solicitor how it should be handled.

Marrying on the West Coast. Couples from abroad marrying in Galway or Connemara give marriage notification at least three months ahead. A non-EU birth certificate may need an apostille from the country that issued it, and we translate the certificate together with that apostille.

Doctors in Training at UHG. International medical graduates taking up posts at University Hospital Galway send the Medical Council their medical degree, internship certificate and certificate of good standing. The Council asks for translations officially stamped by an official translator.

Where Your Translations Go

Key Galway Institutions Where Your Translations Will Be Submitted

🇮🇪
Immigration Service Delivery (ISD)
Residents of Galway apply to ISD, part of the Department of Justice, Home Affairs and Migration, for visas, Irish Residence Permits, family reunification, EU Treaty Rights and citizenship. First-time IRP registration is at Burgh Quay, Dublin 2. ISD asks for translations by a professional translator, signed and dated with contact details, which our certificate provides.
🎓
University of Galway
International applicants, visiting students and PhD candidates submit transcripts and degree certificates with translations. We translate grading systems carefully, since a Spanish 7 or a Brazilian 8.5 means little without the scale beside it.
📚
Atlantic Technological University (ATU) Galway
ATU's Dublin Road campus teaches business, engineering, science and hospitality. Applicants with foreign vocational or culinary qualifications need them in English, including the subject list and the hours of practical training.
⚖️
Galway Courthouse
Court business for the city runs through the Galway court office at the courthouse in Woodquay. Foreign papers used in proceedings need a translation with a translator's affidavit, so ask your solicitor how it should be handled.
🏥
University Hospital Galway and Merlin Park
Galway University Hospitals recruit nurses, doctors and health and social care professionals from abroad. NMBI, the Medical Council and CORU all want translations stamped and signed, with the translator's contact details.
💍
Civil Registration Service Galway
Couples marrying in Galway give notification through the office at Shantalla Health Centre. Partners bring birth certificates and any divorce papers, and anything not in English or Irish must be translated first.

Common Questions about Official Translation in Galway

Galway Certified Translation – FAQ

€29.95 per page (300 source words), with no surcharge for less common languages. A medtech relocation file of a degree, a diploma supplement and a reference often comes to four or five pages.
Within 24 hours for one to three pages, by email. Bigger files take longer, and we give you the date before payment. For an urgent deadline, a 12-hour expedited service is available on request.
Since 13 January 2025 all first-time Irish Residence Permit registration is done in person at the ISD Registration Office, 13–14 Burgh Quay, Dublin 2, and renewals are online. Galway students and workers therefore travel to Dublin once for the first registration.
Yes. Add tracked post at checkout and we send the signed hard copy to your Eircode anywhere in Co. Galway. The PDF by email comes first, so you are not left waiting for the post.
Not for Irish bodies. Documents in English or Irish need no translation, so an Irish-language certificate or Gaeltacht school report can be submitted as it is. We translate documents in other languages into English.
Not on its own. A foreign will is admitted in terms of a translation supported by an affidavit of translator. The affidavit can be sworn before a notary public, so ask your solicitor how it should be handled.
