By destination
What each authority actually wants from a Pakistani applicant
Certification requirements are set by the receiving authority, not by the translator. These pages set out what each one asks for, and say plainly where we are not the provider you need.
Why the destination decides everything
Several countries only accept translations from a translator sworn into their own legal system — Italy, Germany, Spain, Poland, and the Netherlands among them. No Pakistani translator is on those registers. Others, including the UK, ask about the certification wording instead, which we can meet. Identify the authority first; the language is the easy part.

Italy, Germany, Spain, Poland, and the Netherlands each maintain a register of translators sworn before their own courts or ministries. Australia has NAATI. Brazil has the tradutor público juramentado. China often requires a registered Chinese translation company's seal. Those are national credentials, and no Pakistani translator holds any of them.
Where your checklist names one, we will tell you before you pay rather than after your file comes back. Where it asks for a certified translation with a statement of accuracy, we can provide it.
Either way, send us the exact wording. Reading these requirements is a large part of what we do, and it costs you nothing.
Send the checklist first
Forward the wording your consulate, university, or employer gave you. We will tell you what it calls for and whether we can meet it, before you spend anything.
