Certified Swedish Translation Services
Certified Swedish translation for immigration, legal, and academic documents from Sweden and Finland. We translate personbevis, vigselbevis, utdrag ur belastningsregistret, and university transcripts — with translators who understand Sweden's Skatteverket (Tax Agency) civil registration system where births, marriages, and addresses are all managed through a centralized population register.
Why Swedish Documents Need Specialized Translators
Our Swedish translators are native speakers who specialize in documents from Sweden's Skatteverket-managed folkbokföring system — personbevis (population register extract), vigselbevis (marriage certificate), and other civil status documents. They also translate utdrag ur belastningsregistret (criminal record extracts), academic credentials from Swedish universities including the unique Swedish grading system, and court decisions from tingsrätt (district court) and hovrätt (appellate court). For Finland-Swedish documents, we use translators familiar with Finland's bilingual administrative system.
Whether you need a Swedish personbevis translated for USCIS, academic transcripts from Uppsala or Lund University evaluated for U.S. equivalency, or Swedish court documents certified for international legal proceedings, our team delivers certified translations accepted by all U.S. authorities.

Why Swedish Translation Requires Expertise
Swedish presents unique linguistic challenges that machine translation and non-specialist translators consistently fail to handle correctly.
Unique Civil Registration System
Sweden's Skatteverket manages all civil registration through the folkbokföring — a tax agency maintaining birth, marriage, and population records is unfamiliar to most Americans. Translators must explain this institutional context and correctly render document titles like "personbevis" (person certificate/population register extract).
Three Extra Letters (å, ä, ö)
Swedish treats å, ä, and ö as completely separate letters (not accented variants) that come at the end of the alphabet. These must be preserved exactly in names — "Åström" and "Astrom" are different names, and alphabetical filing in Swedish differs from English conventions.
Compound Words
Swedish extensively creates compound words by combining smaller words — "personnummer" (person number), "folkbokföring" (people book keeping), "belastningsregister" (offense register). These must be unpacked into natural English phrases without losing the specific administrative meaning.
Sweden vs. Finland-Swedish Documents
Finland-Swedish documents use Finland's administrative system and bilingual (Swedish-Finnish) formatting, with different document names and issuing authorities than Sweden. Translators must correctly identify which country's system produced the document.
Machine vs. Professional Translation
See why Google Translate and AI tools can't replace certified human translators for legal documents. A single mistranslated term can delay your case or invalidate your filing.
“Utdraget överensstämmer med uppgifterna i Skatteverkets folkbokföringsdatabas.”
“The extract corresponds with the data in the Tax Authority's people registration database.”
“This extract conforms to the records held in the National Population Register maintained by the Swedish Tax Agency (Skatteverket).”

Certified & Notarized Swedish Translation for Immigration
USCIS, immigration courts, and state agencies require certified translations of all foreign-language documents. Our Swedish translations meet every federal and state requirement.
Certified Translation
Every Swedish translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy — a sworn statement by the translator attesting that the translation is complete and accurate. This is the minimum requirement for USCIS filings, court submissions, and academic credential evaluations (WES, ECE, NACES members).
Notarized Translation
A notarized translation adds a notary public’s verification that the translator’s signature is authentic. Some state courts, foreign consulates, and government agencies require notarization in addition to certification. We provide notarized Swedish translations with same-day availability.
Apostille Services
For Swedish documents being used internationally, an apostille certifies their authenticity under the Hague Convention. We coordinate apostille services with the Secretary of State’s office, providing a complete package: certified translation + notarization + apostille — ready for international legal use.
