Wexford has long attracted German-speaking residents, from families on the coast to researchers and professionals, and their documents often need English versions. We translate Erbscheine, notarial contracts, Rentenbescheide and Abitur certificates into English, each with a signed Certificate of Accuracy and our stamp. Orders from Courtown, Enniscorthy or Rosslare Harbour are all handled online, with email delivery.
According to Census 2022, 816 people in Co. Wexford speak German at home, a county-wide figure rather than one for Wexford town.
German speakers in Wexford include long-settled residents in coastal villages, Irish-German families, scientists at Johnstown Castle and professionals in the county's businesses. Their translation needs are often legal and financial: inheritances, property, pensions and references. Younger family members translate school certificates for Irish colleges. Because Austrian and Swiss documents use their own terms, we check which country issued each document before translating.

Zeugnis der Allgemeinen Hochschulreife
School leavers from German families in Co. Wexford applying through the CAO for business or art at SETU's Summerhill Road campus send the Abiturzeugnis. Each Kurs keeps its Punkte on the 0 to 15 scale, and the Durchschnittsnote is reproduced exactly.
Ehefähigkeitszeugnis
For a Wexford wedding, a German partner is often asked for a certificate of no impediment. The Standesamt checks the documents of both partners before issuing it, and we translate it with the names, dates and file reference shown.
Arbeitszeugnis
Craft workshops, hotels and tourism businesses in Wexford sometimes ask German applicants for references from past employers. A qualifiziertes Arbeitszeugnis grades performance through set phrases, so we translate them faithfully and leave the judgement to the reader.
German applicants to SETU Wexford should check whether their school issued the Abiturzeugnis with an English supplement, as some Länder offer one. If not, send the full Zeugnis, including the page listing Leistungskurse, since CAO uses those results. For a Wexford wedding, ask the Standesamt early, because the Ehefähigkeitszeugnis can take weeks to issue.
