Which language for your documents in Kortrijk?
Kortrijk is in Flanders, where municipalities and most administrations work in Dutch. A document in another language, whether a foreign birth certificate or a diploma, therefore usually has to be submitted with a sworn translation into Dutch. We also translate Dutch documents into French, German, English and other languages when you need them abroad or in another region.
Common requests in Kortrijk
Near the border, many people in Kortrijk work, marry or study on both sides of it. Documents from neighbouring countries often need a sworn translation, and some EU civil-status records can use the multilingual standard forms instead.
Companies in and around Kortrijk regularly ask us for translations of articles of association, contracts and company extracts, with an apostille or legalisation when a subsidiary, tender or client abroad requires it.
