What is NAATI?

NAATI is the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters, which is Australia's only body for issuing professional certification to translators and interpreters.

What is a NAATI certified translation?

A certified translation issued by a holder of NAATI Certified Translator accreditation, featuring the translator's signature, accreditation number, and certification statement, which is widely accepted by Australian government agencies.

How can I check if a translator is truly NAATI accredited?

You can check by searching their name or accreditation number in the Online Directory on the official NAATI website.

Do NAATI certified translations need to be notarised?

Usually not when lodging applications within Australia. When using them back in China, some organisations may still require notarisation or an apostille, so please check with the receiving organisation first.

Do NAATI certified translations have an expiry date?

The certified translation itself does not have an expiry date and can be reused as long as the information on the original document remains unchanged. If the receiving organisation has specific requirements for the date of issue of the original document, those requirements apply.

Can digital certified translations be lodged directly?

For online applications such as visas and driver licences, uploading the PDF directly is usually sufficient. If an individual organisation requires a hard copy, please confirm with them in advance.
