Translation Bureau in Hamburg: Sworn Translation and Legalization for Ukrainians
Hamburg is not only the "gateway to the world" and Germany's largest port, but also a city that has become a vital support point for a huge Ukrainian community. It hosts the General Consulate of Ukraine, serving Ukrainians from several federal states, powerful universities, and numerous headquarters of international companies.
However, life in the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg requires strict adherence to bureaucratic procedures. Registration at Hamburg Service, applying for social benefits, university admission, or employment in port logistics — it all starts with documents. Translation bureau in Hamburg "Admiral" offers qualified assistance in adapting your Ukrainian documents to the German legal field. We work remotely, quickly, and with a guarantee of acceptance in any city institution.
