Document translation

 

When preparing for your ACS Migration Skills Assessment, any original documents not in English need to be translated. Both the original document and the translation must be uploaded for assessment.

 
 

Translating documents within Australia: 

 

Accurate document presentation is critical for skilled migration. Acceptable translations may be obtained from translators accredited by the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI).

 

The ACS AcudocX partnership offers ACS members instant access to a complete translation management solution where NAATI-certified translations are accessible, easy to navigate, and affordable. Take advantage of the translation discount through the ACS AcudocX partnership.

 
 

Translating documents outside Australia: 

 

ACS members can also benefit from the AcudocX partnership when translating documents abroad. Get instant access to NAATI-certified translators and enjoy the same benefits and discounts offered to those in Australia.

 

Other acceptable translations can be obtained from the Awarding Institution or contact your nearest Australian Diplomatic or Consular Mission for a list of approved translation services in your country. 

 

Overseas translations must be completed on the translating organisation's letterhead and include

  • An official stamp
  • The name of the translator
  • The translator’s signature and contact telephone number legibly printed with the signature – it must be possible for ACS to contact the translator to verify the document
