Translation services we provide for embassy documents
Translation Agency of Saskatchewan is an ATIS-certified office based in Saskatoon, serving clients across the province. For embassy and consulate workflows we run the full chain: certified translation in 50+ languages, notarization with Saskatchewan notaries public, authentication via Global Affairs Canada or the Saskatchewan competent authority, and consular legalization where required.
How to prepare documents for an embassy
Most embassies and consulates in Canada will not accept Saskatchewan-issued documents as they are. A birth certificate from eHealth Saskatchewan, a U of S or U of R transcript, an SGI driver record, or a court order from Queen's Bench has to be translated by a certified translator, then authenticated, and in some cases legalized at the destination country's consulate. The steps are predictable, but missing one usually means the file is rejected and the process restarts.
Standard checklist
- Confirm the destination country and whether it accepts a Hague apostille or whether full consular legalization is still required.
- Order a certified Saskatchewan translation into the destination language. Most files we handle are English-to-X; French-to-X is available for Fransaskois records.
- Add notarization by a Saskatchewan notary public when the consulate or foreign authority asks for the translator's certification to be notarized.
- Authenticate the document via Global Affairs Canada (Hague apostille since 11 January 2024) or, for Saskatchewan-issued vital records, the Saskatchewan competent authority before the federal stamp.
- For non-Convention destinations, submit the authenticated package for legalization at that country's consulate.
- Confirm acceptance with the receiving institution overseas before couriering originals out of Saskatchewan.
Canada joined the Hague Apostille Convention on 11 January 2024, simplifying consular paperwork for Saskatchewan clients sending documents abroad. A single apostille from Global Affairs Canada now replaces the full legalization chain for Convention countries. Non-Convention destinations (UAE, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Vietnam, Lebanon and a few others) still need the older full route. Each country tile above shows the current route.
| Apostille route (Hague Convention) | Full legalization route (non-Convention) |
|---|---|
| Countries: China, India, Philippines, Russia, Spain, Türkiye, Ukraine | Countries: Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Vietnam |
| Steps from Saskatchewan: ATIS-certified translation, optional notarization, then apostille via Global Affairs Canada or the Saskatchewan competent authority. One stamp covers the chain. | Steps from Saskatchewan: ATIS-certified translation, notarization, authentication by Global Affairs Canada, then consular legalization at the destination country embassy or consulate. |
| Time: 1-3 weeks from Saskatoon in standard processing. | Time: 3-6 weeks depending on the consulate and courier schedule from Saskatchewan. |
| Saskatchewan note: vital records issued by eHealth Saskatchewan may need provincial authentication before the federal apostille. | Saskatchewan note: documents are couriered Saskatoon-to-Ottawa for consular legalization; we manage the chain end to end. |
For any step in the chain - certified translation, notarization, authentication, legalization - contact our Saskatchewan office or start an online order. We confirm the exact route, fee, and turnaround in writing before we begin.
