Translation Bureau in Berlin: Professional Document Assistance for Ukrainians in Germany
Berlin has become a new home for hundreds of thousands of Ukrainians. Moving to the capital of Germany inevitably involves interacting with the local bureaucracy: applying for Paragraph 24 (temporary protection), registering at the Bürgeramt (Anmeldung), submitting documents to the Jobcenter, or applying to German universities via Uni-Assist. In each of these cases, the key to success is properly prepared and certified documents.
Translation Bureau "Admiral" offers comprehensive linguistic services for Ukrainians in Berlin. We understand the strict requirements of German officials (Beamter), so we provide translations that are guaranteed to be accepted in FRG government institutions. We work remotely, allowing you to get a ready result without queues or traveling across the city.
What Documents We Translate for Submission in Berlin
The specificity of the German administrative system is that almost every official paper issued in Ukraine requires translation into German according to the ISO 9 standard. Our translation bureau in Berlin provides preparation for the following categories:
- Personal Documents: internal and international passports, birth, marriage, and divorce certificates. This is the basis for obtaining a tax number (Steuernummer) and registration.
- Educational Documents: certificates, bachelor's, and master's diplomas. Quality translation of diplomas is necessary for the Anerkennung procedure (recognition of qualifications).
- Documents for Drivers: translation of a driver's license for exchange for a German one (Umschreibung) or car insurance.
- Medical Certificates: vaccination cards (Impfausweis), medical history extracts for insurance companies (Krankenkasse).
- Legal Acts: powers of attorney, statements, court decisions, constituent documents for business in Germany.
