Notary: Good afternoon. Can I help you?

Client: I am going to apply for admission to some educational establishments abroad. I`d like to certify translations of my University diploma.

Notary: What language have you translated your document into?

Client: Here are the translations from Ukrainian into English and German.

Notary: You see, I can certify the translation into English as I have a good command of this language.

Client: And what should I do with my German variant? Everything is correct here as it has been done by an expert translator.

Notary: All right, but I can authenticate only the signature of an expert translator.

Client: Should he come to the notary office personally?

Notary: Oh, no. You are to present the document identifying his personality and the document about his qualification, and certainly his signature.

Client: And where should he sign the document?

Notary: Let me have a look at your English translation. Oh, you are perfectly right. The original text is on the left, the translation is on the right. Under the document there should be all the signatures and the signature of the expert translator.

Client: Well, can you certify my English variant today?

Notary: Surely, I can. And the German one can be notarized after you fulfill all the necessary requirements provided for by the law.

Client: Thank you very much. What time can I come to you again?

Notary: Any time it will be convenient for you.
