Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between English to Chinese and Malay to Chinese translation?
English to Chinese translation serves documents headed to or from English-speaking countries (US, UK, Canada) and international business. Malay to Chinese translation serves documents that must comply with Malaysian law, which requires Bahasa Melayu for court, JPN, and SSM submissions.
Does USCIS require a notarised translation, or is certified enough?
USCIS requires a certified English translation with a signed translator's certificate of accuracy. Notarisation is not required by USCIS itself, though some other agencies or specific application types may ask for it separately.
Do I need Simplified or Traditional Chinese?
Mainland China and Singapore use Simplified Chinese. Taiwan and Hong Kong use Traditional Chinese. Confirm your destination before ordering. We translate into both.
How long does certified English-Chinese translation take?
Standard certified translation is delivered within 24–48 hours. Urgent same-day service is available for an additional fee.
Can Chinese company documents be used for Malaysian SSM registration if translated into English?
Yes, English is commonly accepted for SSM registration documentation. If the same documents are also needed for Malaysian court or JPN submissions, those specifically require Bahasa Melayu translation instead.
Is a certified translation the same as a sworn or notarised translation?
Not exactly. A certified translation includes a signed statement of accuracy from the translator. Malaysia has no formal "sworn translator" register recognised abroad. Only translations endorsed by ITBM, the Malaysian Translators Association, or a Malaysian court are officially recognised domestically. Notarisation adds a further layer where a notary public witnesses the translator's signature; some destinations (e.g. China civil registry) require this in addition to certification.
How much does English-Chinese certified translation cost?
From RM0.50 per word for standard certified translation, or RM0.65 per word for same-day urgent service. A typical 1–2 page personal document costs approximately RM100–RM200.
