Italian Translation Services in Malaysia: Certified for Business, Legal & Personal Documents
We translate certified personal, legal, and corporate documents between Italian and English/Bahasa Melayu — for Italian companies and professionals in Malaysia, Malaysians with Italian family or business ties, and students applying to Italian institutions.
What Is Certified Italian Translation?
A document translation completed by a professional translator with a signed certification statement confirming accuracy. Required in Malaysia for SSM company registration, Employment Pass applications, marriage registration, and submissions to Italian or Malaysian authorities.
Italian ↔ English/Malay Translation: Inbound and Outbound
Italian to English/Malay (inbound)
Italian companies operating in Malaysia and Italian nationals living or marrying here need certified translations of Italian-issued documents: certificato di nascita (birth certificate), atto di matrimonio (marriage certificate), visura camerale (company registration), and diplomas.
English/Malay to Italian (outbound)
Malaysian companies trading with Italy, and Malaysians studying, working, or marrying in Italy, need certified Italian translations of their Malaysian documents.
Do Italian documents need an apostille for use in Malaysia? Italy is a member of the 1961 Hague Apostille Convention, so most Italian public documents carry an apostille rather than requiring embassy legalization. The certified translation into English or Bahasa Melayu remains a separate requirement on top of the apostille.
