The language Botswana requires

When preparing official papers for use in Botswana, you must have them in English, the country's working language. All public offices and private institutions in Botswana process files in English only. This applies whether you are dealing with birth certificates, court orders, or company records. We provide an official English translation in Genoa that meets these needs exactly as the authorities expect. Make sure to ask whether the receiving office has any special formatting rules before you start the work.

Certification Botswana accepts

For certified translation for Botswana, you need a professional translator's signed statement of accuracy. The translator attaches their credentials and a formal certificate confirming the translation matches your original document word for word. Unlike some countries, Botswana does not require a sworn English translator in Genoa with special court registration. A certified translation into English in Genoa from any qualified professional meets the standard. The key is that the translation carries the stamp and signature of the person who did the work.

Per-page cost & turnaround

Our rates for certified translation in Genoa for Botswana follow a clear per-page structure. The fee includes the translator's statement, their credentials, and a company stamp. Standard work takes two to three business days from when we receive your clear scans. If you need the papers sooner, we offer a next-day rush option. Every page we translate gets the same level of care and certification regardless of the deadline you choose.

Acceptance in Botswana

Botswana authorities check that the translation includes the translator's full contact details and credentials. They want to see a clear statement that the work is complete and accurate. The translation must stay attached to a copy of your original document. Most government offices and private firms in Gaborone and other cities accept these certified translations without question. Keep a second certified copy for your own records in case the office needs to hold onto the first one.
