Outcomes of Translated Documents
Each document is reviewed with thorough care. I provide MTO-compliant translations of driver's licences, driving records, and proof of driving experience for Ontario driver's licence applications and for driving experience recognition. Below is a sample of a translated document. A translation of a driver's licence will be prepared for official submission in a similar way.



Affordable Costing for Certified Translation Services
My pricing is based on typical professional charges and varies according to the document type, language pair, document certification requirements, and turnaround time. I ask my clients to send me a clear copy or photo of their original documents so that I can present an accurate quote with no hidden expenses.
Translations start from $0.06 CAD per word
There is a minimum fee per page/document
Price also depends on the required certification (stamps, etc.)
Urgent translations +50%
For same-day translations (when possible), I charge +50% extra
Notarization, true copies, and apostille
is paid for separately (if needed)








In any case, I need to see your documents first.
Even standard documents (driver's licenses, birth certificates) can vary a lot.
I can only confirm the price and the turnaround time after I see your documents.
Guarantee
If the translation is not accepted in Canada, I will provide a refund. If the Canadian authority to which you are submitting our translations declines them, I will fully reimburse you.
(This has never happened.)

Can you help with document legalization, authentication, and apostille?
Here is a complete guide on apostilling Canadian documents for use in other countries. It contains several samples, photos, descriptions, and illustrations of apostilles. I utilized and assessed these approaches while working with a number of clients throughout Canada.
How long are translations for MTO and DriveTest valid?
If your original foreign document doesn't change, the translation itself doesn't "expire" in content — but DriveTest will not accept a translation that falls outside this six-month window, so if your application is delayed, you may need a newly dated translation even if nothing on the original document changed.
