Frequently Asked Questions
Does my deed poll need to be notarised, or is certified translation enough?
This depends on where you're submitting it. Most banks, universities, and Western immigration authorities accept a standard certified translation. If you're submitting to Singapore ICA or another authority that names notarisation specifically, you'll need both.
Can you translate a deed poll that includes a Commissioner for Oaths' stamp or signature?
Yes — a certified translation includes a full translation of every element on the page, including stamps, seals, and witness signatures, not just the main text.
How long does deed poll translation take?
A standard deed poll is usually a short document and can typically be turned around within 24–48 hours; same-day service is available on request.
Do you translate both directions, Malay to English and English to Malay?
Yes. Whether you need an English version of a Malay deed poll for overseas use, or a Malay version of an English deed poll for a Malaysian agency, we handle both directions.
