What is the difference between Brazilian and European Portuguese?
Brazilian Portuguese is very similar to the European variant and yet it’s not identical; they don’t sound and sound. They have some different vocabulary, pronunciation, and some different grammar structures. The choice of variant is important because they ensure that your translation sounds natural and is accepted in the target country appropriately.
What does tradução juramentada mean?
In Brazil, Tradução Juramentada is a sworn translation that’s utilized for official purposes. It’s carried out by an official tradutor público with registration at the Junta Comercial in Brazil. This kind of translation is validly accepted for purposes within Brazil and is necessary for formalization in Brazil.
Do I need tradução juramentada for UKVI?
No, you do not. For UKVI applications, the requirement is generally a certified translation rather than a tradução juramentada. UKVI requires translations to be completed by a qualified translator or translation company and to include a signed declaration confirming that the translation is accurate.
What are the rates of the Portuguese translation?
Normally, this is subject to a price which is determined according to the nature of the document and its length. Usually begins at £25.00/page or £0.09-£0.12 per word for simple translations.
What is the approximate time for the translation?
Regular documents otherwise have a normal Portuguese translation period of 24-48 hours. Files may be slightly longer for larger or more complex files.
What countries do you have covered?
All 9 Portuguese-speaking countries are covered as well as Macau. These countries are Brazil, Portugal, Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, S. Tomé and Príncipe, East Timor and Equatorial Guinea.
Does UKVI require notarisation?
Many people are unaware that translations submitted to UKVI do not usually need to be notarised. In most cases, the translation simply needs to be accompanied by a signed statement from the translator or translation company confirming its accuracy.
What does tradutor público mean?
In Brazil, a public translator is a translator authorized by the government. Variably, they’re officially licensed and permitted to make totally legal translations which are acceptable in Brazilian structures.
Tradução Juramentada vs Certified Translation: Which Do You Need for Your Portuguese Documents (Portuguese document translation services)
If you are submitting Brazilian documents to UKVI, UK courts or UK universities, you should obtain a certified translation accompanied by a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy from the translator or translation company. This is the standard practice in the United Kingdom. Translations prepared by professionals registered with the Junta Comercial for use before Brazilian authorities are different and are known in Brazil as “tradução juramentada” (sworn translation).
The difference is really clear as certified translation is used in the United States, while tradução juramentada is used in Brazil. Just because the wrong format doesn’t detract from the chances of your work being accepted, so make sure you double-check with the recipient before you submit it.
Certified Portuguese Translation for Official Submissions
A certified translation is often required for documents issued in Portugal that are to be submitted to a UK government body, court, university or professional regulator. This should include a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy on company letterhead.

Portuguese Sworn Translation for Documents Used in Brazil
The documents will be translated and have to be handed over to the authorities of Brazil by a tradutor público. The papers presented to the Brazilian authorities need to be originals of a paper that has been translated by a translator público or the paper must be translated. A translation of this kind is a legal text that can be served in Brazil for business, legal and official purposes.
Espresso Translations offer certified sworn translation services to translate Portuguese documents into Portuguese English translations.
Portuguese Legal Translation for Contracts, Business, and Courts
If the document is a contract, a power of attorney or court rulings in Portuguese law, a translator who is knowledgeable with the laws of Brazil and Portugal will be able to facilitate the translation.
Portuguese Legal Translation for Contracts
These contracts have to be very well drafted or it could make the difference in errors in words and so on. This includes business relationships, joint ventures and commercial transactions. The translation must be accurate, and interpretation cannot be involved because it must be exact in illustrating the intention of the two parties under the contract.
- Portuguese Legal Translation for Business: Official papers (documents used regularly in business), powers of attorney, and agreements regarding taped companies are all documents that are often included in legal proceedings of a business. These must be translated respecting the two different legal systems: Brazilian and Portuguese, to ensure that everything is valid and legally correct when used.
- Portuguese Legal Translation to the Courts: This is probably one of the most susceptible areas of any court’s documents. Full accuracy is required in the translation of these, including, but not limited to, court proceedings, legal statements, supporting documents and documents that have a direct impact on the legal proceedings. There is little chance of any ambiguity and no room for free verse in the design and execution of this piece.

Portuguese Medical Translation for Healthcare and Pharmaceutical Documents
What you need is translators who possess the skill required to verify the precision and validity of the information mentioned in clinical research, ANVISA’s requirements and medical records.
- Portuguese Medical Translation for Healthcare Audit Records: The diagnosis and treatment records for a patient, especially those that contain explanations about a patient’s condition that would only be understood by the patient’s health care providers, will require patient hours to be translated precisely to prevent thermal loss. This urge for accuracy, especially since the slightest mistake may alter the meaning, is alarming.
- Portuguese Medical Translation for Pharmaceutical Clinical Trials: Clinical trial documents are of a technical nature and medical terminology; therefore, they are extremely divergent and are typically composed entirely of scientific terms. People fluent in medical communication and familiar with the art of the research process are essential in this type of communication so nothing is lost in translation.
- Portuguese Medical Translation for ANVISA Pharmaceutical Submissions: Working with ANVISA to gain access to the Brazilian healthcare and pharmaceutical market requires healthcare and pharmaceutical regulatory documents to be translated with the goal that the provided information is as authentic and reliable as possible, because that is what the Brazilian regulatory authorities are looking for. To come about in this way means the end goal must be met with an open and honest exchange of information. All information should be made in the context of the regulatory system and avoid new errors.
