I needed to get my baby's birth certificate translated to english for the British Passport Office. I contacted Absolute Translations and received great advice and a quote within 30mins. Then the translation was first emailed to me 2 days later, and delivered in the post (international) 5 days later. Would recommend.

Quick turnaround and fantastic service
I want to thank Mattia and his team for being so brilliant. I needed some documents translated from English into French quickly, and they was able to meet the deadline. There were quite a few documents and required a professional level of translation with certification. At all times, Mattia was helpful, courteous and responsive. I definitely recommend this company.
