Certified Translation in Saskatchewan

A2Z Language Hub delivers IRCC-accepted certified translation to every city in Saskatchewan, fully online, starting at $55 CAD per page.

Saskatchewan runs one of the most employer-driven immigration systems in Canada, and that shapes what gets translated here. The Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program assesses foreign education, trade credentials and work history for nomination, Saskatchewan Government Insurance requires a certified translation before it will exchange a foreign driver’s licence, and the Court of King’s Bench for Saskatchewan sits in Saskatoon, Regina, Prince Albert and the smaller judicial centres. All of them need a complete translation with the translator’s signed certification.

Because the province’s newcomers arrive largely through employment and study rather than family sponsorship, the document mix tilts towards credentials: diplomas, trade certificates, licences and employer letters, more than the birth and marriage records that dominate elsewhere. Demand also reaches well beyond the two cities — Prince Albert, Moose Jaw and the agricultural and potash communities around them recruit internationally and have no local translator, which is why the service is delivered entirely online.

Is there a certified translator in Saskatchewan?

Yes. A2Z Language Hub's certified translators serve every community in Saskatchewan, and the service is delivered online rather than over a counter: send a scan or a phone photograph of your document, approve a fixed quote, and the certified translation comes back by email with a signed certificate of accuracy naming the translator and their credentials. That certificate is what IRCC, Canadian courts, universities and provincial licensing bodies require, and it is included in every order at no extra charge. Pricing starts at $55 per page and does not change with your distance from our office.

Being outside a large city changes nothing about the work or the price. Saskatchewan clients in smaller communities get the same translators, the same certification and the same turnaround options as clients in the province's largest centres, because nothing in the process depends on you being able to reach a translation office in person.

Which Saskatchewan institutions require a certified translation?

Immigration offices, courts, universities, credential evaluators and licensing bodies in Saskatchewan all require a certified translation of any document that is not in English or French, and each of them accepts the same thing: a complete translation of the document accompanied by the translator's signed statement of accuracy. None of them keeps a list of approved vendors. The bodies Saskatchewan clients most often submit our translations to are:

  • Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program (SINP)
  • Saskatchewan Government Insurance (SGI) — driver licensing and exchange of a foreign licence
  • Court of King’s Bench for Saskatchewan and the Provincial Court of Saskatchewan
  • University of Saskatchewan, the University of Regina, First Nations University of Canada and Saskatchewan Polytechnic
  • Saskatchewan Health Authority
  • Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada
  • Settlement agencies including the Saskatoon Open Door Society, the Regina Open Door Society and the Moose Jaw Multicultural Council

What are the most requested translation languages in Saskatchewan?

The languages most often requested for certified translation in Saskatchewan are Tagalog, Punjabi, Mandarin, Ukrainian, Hindi, Arabic, Spanish, Urdu, Vietnamese and French. Tagalog and Punjabi dominate through employer-driven recruitment into health care, trucking and food processing, while Ukrainian appears far more often here than its national share would suggest — the province has one of Canada’s oldest Ukrainian settlements and took a substantial share of recent arrivals. Written translation is available in 90+ languages overall, so a pair that is not on this list is still very likely covered — ask for a quote rather than assuming it is not.

Which documents do Saskatchewan residents most often need translated?

Certified translation orders from Saskatchewan are mostly civil-status records, academic credentials and court filings. Every document is translated in full — including stamps, seals, handwritten annotations and the reverse of the page — and certified with a signed statement of accuracy, because a summary or an extract is the most common reason a filing is returned. The documents this region generates most are:

  • Diplomas, trade certificates and apprenticeship records for a SINP nomination
  • Employer reference letters and employment records supporting a job-offer stream application
  • Foreign driver’s licences for an SGI exchange — both sides of the card
  • Birth and marriage certificates for permanent residence and citizenship applications
  • Academic transcripts for the University of Saskatchewan, the University of Regina and Saskatchewan Polytechnic
  • Police certificates and medical records requested during nomination

Certified Translation in Saskatchewan — Frequently Asked Questions

How much does certified translation cost in Saskatchewan?

Certified translation in Saskatchewan starts at $55 per page for common languages, with the full published range running $40–85 CAD/page depending on volume and language. The per-page rate falls as the document gets longer, and rare languages sit at the top of the range. Location inside Saskatchewan is not a variable — volume and language are. Notarization, where a court or a lawyer specifically asks for it, is $60 per document. A mailed hard copy is $35 per order; the certified PDF is included at no extra cost.

How long does a certified translation take in Saskatchewan?

Most Saskatchewan documents are back within 2–3 business days. Against a filing deadline, 24 hours rush adds +20% and same business day delivery adds +50%, subject to translator availability for the language. Tell us the filing date when you ask for the quote and we will confirm it is achievable before you pay, rather than after.

Does the Saskatchewan Immigrant Nominee Program require certified translations?

Yes, and SINP files are refused over translations more often than most, because the program is credential-heavy. Every document not in English must arrive with a complete translation and the translator’s signed declaration — and for SINP that most often means diplomas, trade certificates and employer letters rather than civil-status records. Grading scales, course lists and letterhead all have to be translated, since the assessment is made on those details.

Will SGI accept a translated driver’s licence?

Yes. SGI needs to read the licence class, the issue and expiry dates and any restrictions to credit your driving experience, so both sides of the card have to be translated and certified. Photograph or scan the front and the back and send them together; the certified PDF that comes back can be presented at any SGI motor licence issuer in the province.

Do you translate Ukrainian documents for Saskatchewan employers and schools?

Yes — Ukrainian is one of the busiest pairs we handle for this province. Ukrainian diplomas, work records, birth certificates and school reports all come to us for certified translation, whether the destination is SINP, a Saskatchewan Polytechnic admission, a school division enrolling children, or an employer verifying a trade qualification. Soviet-era and modern Ukrainian document formats are both handled, including the internal passports and work books that older records rely on.
