Certified Translation, Notarization, and Apostille Services — All in One Place

  • Apr 1
  • 2 min read

When submitting documents internationally, accuracy and proper certification are essential. Many government authorities, courts, and overseas institutions require documents to be professionally translated, notarized, and often apostilled before they will be accepted.


Coordinating these steps on your own can be confusing and time-consuming. At DG Notary, we provide a one-stop solution by working with certified translators and managing the entire process from translation to notarization and apostille — all through a single point of contact.


Why Certified Translation Matters

Official documents usually cannot be translated informally or by the document holder. Most institutions require translations completed by a certified translator to ensure:

  • Accuracy and completeness of the translation

  • Proper formatting that matches the original document

  • Acceptance by government agencies and foreign authorities

  • Compliance with legal and authentication requirements


We work directly with certified translators experienced in preparing translations for official and international use.


Documents Commonly Requiring Translation

Clients often request translation services for documents such as:

  • Birth certificates

  • Marriage certificates

  • Divorce certificates

  • Educational diplomas and transcripts

  • Corporate documents

  • RCMP record checks

  • Criminal record checks

  • Court documents

  • Powers of Attorney and affidavits


If your document will be used outside Canada, additional authentication/apostille steps are often required after translation.


A True One-Stop Shop: Translation + Notarization + Apostille

Instead of coordinating multiple service providers, DG Notary can handle the entire process for you.


Step 1: Certified Translation

Your document is translated by a qualified certified translator suitable for official submission.


Step 2: Notarization

Once translated, the document and/or translator’s certification can be notarized as required by the receiving country or institution.


Step 3: Apostille

If the document is being used internationally, we can arrange apostille services so your document is recognized in countries that are part of the Hague Apostille Convention.


Managing all three steps together helps avoid delays, errors, and rejected submissions.


Why Clients Choose a One-Stop Process

Working with a single provider offers several advantages:

  • No need to search for separate translators and notaries

  • Reduced risk of incorrect certification order

  • Faster processing timelines

  • Clear guidance on international document requirements

  • Simplified communication throughout the process


We coordinate each stage to ensure your documents meet submission standards the first time.


Ideal for International Applications

Our translation, notarization, and apostille services are commonly used for:

  • Immigration and visa applications

  • Dual citizenship applications

  • Overseas employment or education

  • International business transactions

  • Property matters abroad

  • Marriage or residency applications outside Canada

  • Power of attorney documents


Simple, Guided Process

Whether you already know what certification you need or are unsure where to begin, we guide you through the requirements step by step. Our goal is to make international document preparation straightforward and stress-free.


DG Notary works with certified translators and manages the notarization and apostille process so you don’t have to coordinate multiple offices on your own.

SAME-DAY APPOINTMENT

DG Notary offers in-person and virtual commissioning and witnessing services in full compliance with Ontario's legal and regulatory requirements. Our services are carried out by licensed professionals, including commissioners for taking affidavits and other authorized individuals who are legally permitted to administer oaths, affirmations, and statutory declarations under the Commissioners for Taking Affidavits Act (Ontario) and related legislation.

Please note that online or remote notarization is not yet explicitly regulated under Ontario law. Therefore, DG Notary does not offer online notarial services, including the digital notarization of documents. Any mention of terms such as “notary,” “online notary,” or “notarize online” on our website is used solely in an informal, descriptive context. These references apply only to our lawful remote commissioning and virtual witnessing services, which are separate from formal notarial acts.

DG Notary is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice, representation, or legal opinions. While we assist with online commissioning and witnessing, we do not provide guidance regarding the legal validity, enforceability, or acceptance of documents.

If you need legal advice about executing or using a document, we recommend consulting a licensed lawyer or qualified legal professional. Before using our services, it’s also important to confirm whether the document will be accepted by the intended recipients—such as courts, government bodies, or other organizations—especially when executed electronically or remotely.
