French-speaking residents of Newbridge come from France, Belgium, Switzerland and French-speaking Africa, and their work ranges from pharmaceutical labs to the stud farms around the Curragh. We translate actes de naissance, livrets de famille, diplômes and jugements into certified English for €29.95 per page, signed and stamped. Most short orders are emailed within 24 hours, ready for an employer, school or registrar.
Census 2022 shows 2,390 French speakers at home in Co. Kildare, a county figure shared by Newbridge, Naas and the rest of Kildare.
Around Newbridge, French speakers work in pharmaceuticals, equestrian businesses, retail and teaching, and many have children in local schools. Documents from France and Belgium are usually clear extracts that may come with an EU multilingual form. Records from Cameroon, Côte d'Ivoire or DR Congo can include late-registration judgments and need a full translation, and sometimes legalisation in the issuing country.

French-trained chemists and quality staff joining Newbridge's pharmaceutical sector may be asked for the diplôme d'ingénieur or master's and transcript in English. We translate them as a matched set for the HR file.
French riders, farriers and stud staff working near the Curragh sometimes need a licence, reference or equestrian qualification in English for an employer or insurer. We translate each document at the standard rate.
Teachers from France or Belgium who want to teach in Newbridge secondary schools register with the Teaching Council. We translate degrees and teaching-practice records with the translator's name and address shown, as the Council asks.
A French custody order or divorce judgment relied on at Kildare District Court, sitting in Athy or Naas, needs an English version and a translator's affidavit. We translate the judgment in full. Ask your solicitor how the affidavit should be sworn.
Diplôme de Master
Chemists and quality specialists from France applying to Pfizer's Littleconnell campus may need to show their Master in English during recruitment checks. We translate the diploma with the mention and the specialité exactly as the French ministry wording sets them out.
Carte nationale d’identité
French and Belgian staff joining retailers at Kildare Village sometimes use a national identity card as proof of identity. Where HR wants it in English, we render every line on the card, including the birthplace and the issuing prefecture or commune.
Certificat de travail
Specialists hired from France by Bord na Móna at its Newbridge head office may be asked for past employment certificates. The French certificat de travail states the dates of employment and posts held, and our translation reproduces the employer stamp and SIRET number.
French documents often come in short and full versions, and Newbridge employers rarely need the full ones. For a job, a certificat de travail and diploma usually suffice; for a passport, civil registration or citizenship, get the copie intégrale instead. Checking which version each body wants before ordering saves translating the same document twice.
