What is a Notarized Translation?

FAQs
What's the difference between certified and notarized?
Certified = translator's signature. Notarized = notary public witnesses translator's signature.

How long does notarization add to the process?
1-2 additional business days for notary authentication.
Can you notarize translations remotely?
