Before you send it
- Identify whether the recipient needs only the biographical page or additional visas, amendments and travel stamps. Send those pages in order.
- Use a sharp colour scan without reflections across the photo, names or numbers. Keep all four corners visible.
- Use the passport as a spelling reference for related civil records. Flag any differences between the Latin and Arabic names instead of editing the scan.
From your record to a carefully checked translation.
01 / Share the essentials
Start with the document type, source and target languages, receiving authority and deadline. Odette confirms the scope, fee and timing before you commit. Send only the information needed for your request.
02 / Translate & check
Names, dates, numbers, terminology and notes are checked against the source. Bring any required spellings or format instructions into the conversation before the translation is finalized.
03 / Prepare for submission
Agree the delivery format and whether you need a sworn translation. Odette has been a sworn translator in Lebanon since 2017: for a sworn translation, she certifies its accuracy with her signature and stamp. The recipient decides whether additional certification or legalization is required.
Questions about this document
Do all passport pages need translation?
Only the receiving authority can confirm its required scope. Send its instructions with the relevant pages so Odette can quote the actual work.
How much will this translation cost, and how long will it take?
The fee and timing depend on the language pair, number of pages, legibility, format and deadline. Email Odette with those details for a quote; no fixed price or turnaround is assumed for every document.
Will a sworn translation be accepted everywhere?
Requirements vary by country, authority and procedure. Share the recipient’s instructions before ordering. Lebanese sworn status does not automatically replace a locally required certification, notarization or legalization.
