Certified UWV document translation
Do you need a legally valid translation of a document from the UWV (the Employee Insurance Agency)? At Ecrivus International you have your UWV-document translated under oath with a stamp, signature and a statement from the translator. You order the translation easily online and choose the language combination you want. The price starts from €59.
A document from the UWV is, for example, a WW (unemployment) decision, a WIA (work capacity) ruling or a decision under the Sickness Benefits Act. Foreign authorities, employers or lawyers often ask for a sworn translation of such a decision, because the content has legal consequences.
What is a certified translation of a UWV document?
A sworn translation is produced by a translator sworn in by a Dutch court and registered in the Dutch Register of Sworn Interpreters and Translators (Rbtv). The translator attaches the translation to a copy of your source document and adds a stamp, a signature and a statement that the translation is correct and complete. This makes the translation legally valid and accepted by official authorities.
Why have a UWV decision translated under oath?
An ordinary translation is usually not enough when an authority abroad or a legal party asks for evidence. A UWV-decision determines rights and obligations regarding benefits, incapacity for work or reintegration. For submission to a foreign authority, an insurer or a court, a sworn translation is required. We translate your document into the language the receiving party requires.
