Requirements of SG for translation and notarization

2024-12-04

As is well known, in Singapore, any materials submitted to government departments that are not in English require translation, and some even require notarization. However, different departments have different requirements for translation materials. Generally speaking, there are three types of materials that require translation notarization.

Translation required, no need for notarization, no requirements for translation agencies

Taking the MOM as an example, MOM stipulates that when applying for a pass, if the materials are not in English, a translated version of the original document must be submitted. There is no designated translation agency and notarization is not required.

But , don't search for translation agencies randomly. If you find something unreliable and make a translation mistake, if it is returned after submission and needs to be translated again, it may not only affect the efficiency of the work, but also directly have a negative impact on the application result.

Official translation required, not mandatory notarization

Taking the SPF as an example. When replacing a driver's license, if the materials are not in English, an official translation into English is required.

Official translation and notarization required

Taking the ICA and MOE as examples, the proof and report materials required by these two departments not only need to be translated, but also notarized! For example, notarization of identity documents, education certificates, salary certificates, medical examination reports, marriage (divorce) certificates, power of attorney certificates, child birth certificates, and so on.

Finally, we would like to remind everyone that the Singapore government only accepts official translations for documents that require translation before notarization.

1.Translation by the embassy or notary office of the country where the document is issued
