When is translation Swedish to English needed?

Swedish to English is our most-requested translation direction. Swedes moving abroad, applying to British or American universities, or working for international companies need certified English translations of personbevis, diplomas and other Swedish documents so they're accepted by foreign authorities, universities and employers.

Who orders this translation?

Students applying to universities in the UK, USA, Australia or Canada. Swedes with work permits abroad. Companies registering or establishing subsidiaries in English-speaking countries. Private individuals getting married, adopting or relocating abroad.

English is the world's most widely accepted language for official documents, but requirements vary by destination country. British and American universities often want diplomas plus the Diploma Supplement translated together, while immigration authorities (UK Home Office, USCIS, the Australian Department of Home Affairs) require the translation to be certified and complete — including stamps and seals.

If the document also needs to be legally valid abroad, an apostille on the Swedish original is often required. For Hague Convention countries — which include most English-speaking nations — an apostille is enough; for others, embassy legalization may be needed. DOX translates and arranges the right legalization in a single case so the document is ready to submit.

Frequently asked questions — translation Swedish to English

Do British and American universities accept your translations?+
Yes. A certified translation by a Kammarkollegiet-authorised translator meets the 'certified translation' requirement set by UK and US institutions and immigration authorities. We translate the diploma in full, including the Diploma Supplement where needed.
Does my document need an apostille in addition to the translation?+
Often yes, if it will be used legally abroad. For English-speaking Hague countries an apostille on the Swedish original is enough. We assess your case and arrange the apostille in the same order.
What does a certified translation Swedish to English cost?+
The price depends on the document length, language pair and complexity, so every job is priced individually. We always email a free fixed-price quote before you decide.
How long does a translation Swedish to English take?+
Standard delivery is usually 3–5 business days, but the time depends on the document length, language pair and translator availability. When urgent, we can often offer express. The exact delivery time is confirmed in your quote.
What is a certified translation?+
A certified translation is produced by a translator authorised by Kammarkollegiet and is stamped and signed with an official authorisation. It is accepted by authorities, universities and courts — ordinary translations are not.
Does the translation also need to be legalized?+
It depends on the destination country. For Hague Convention countries an apostille on the translation is usually enough. For other countries you need Notarius Publicus + the Ministry for Foreign Affairs + embassy legalization. DOX handles the whole chain in one case — just let us know in the quote.
Do I get the original document back?+
Yes, the original is always returned together with the translation. You also receive a digital copy by email.
