Notarized

Source file requirements

Before translation starts, the source file is checked for readability, completeness and language direction. Any issues are flagged in writing so the scope reflects the real state of the material. A complete and legible source file is required: missing pages, cropped edges or unclear scans are identified during evaluation and confirmed in writing before work begins. The documented record also covers cost and practice as part of the same scope. Where a filing depends on a specific form, the scope names that form explicitly; the client confirms the requirement with the receiving institution and the work follows the confirmed specification.

This section provides specific information about notarized tailored to your requirements. The written scope confirms all details before work begins, ensuring transparency and quality throughout the process.

What we do not promise

Acceptance is not part of the service: the receiving institution sets its own requirements. The written scope records the intended use so the client can confirm the format before submitting. The limits are stated in the scope: the translation is accurate and reviewed, but the receiving institution decides on acceptance. The client confirms the format requirements directly with the institution. The documented record also covers cost and practice as part of the same scope. The control note accompanies every delivery and records the terminology decisions, the format specifications and any open points, so the client-side review can be completed quickly and completely.

Frequently asked questions

These questions cover what the evaluation phase is asked most often; each answer points back to the written scope as the reference. How much does it cost? Cost follows four factors named on the written quote: volume, layout complexity, repetition and delivery window. Nothing is added after the quote without written confirmation. How long does delivery take? Delivery timing is fixed in the written scope; the confirmed date is the one on the scope, and changes are made only in writing. The written scope names translation explicitly. Who performs the work? Work is split by design: one assigned translator writes, a different person reviews, and the control note names the checks performed. Which institutions accept the result? No acceptance is promised. The scope records the intended use, and the receiving institution's requirements govern the format. Which documents are needed? Three inputs: the complete source file, the language direction, and the intended use. Anything unclear is flagged before work starts. The written scope names cost explicitly. How does the process work step by step? Four steps: submit, receive the written scope, translation with review, delivery with a control note. Each step leaves a written trail. Is the service available digitally? Digital is the default: encrypted submission and delivery, with a paper route available where an original must move. When is the right time to start? Right after the requirements of the receiving institution are clear; that is what the written scope encodes. The written scope names translation explicitly. How does the process work at Lingomere Miami? File submission, written scope, translation with an independent review round, and tracked delivery with a control note. The process does not change with the size of the order: the same four documented stages apply, the same review round runs, and the same control note accompanies the delivery.

Defining the boundaries of notarized is important. The written scope states what is included and what is not, ensuring that there is no ambiguity about what will be delivered.
