ATC Accreditation

One of the main benefits of being an Accredited Member of the Association of Translation companies is the use of the Certification Stamp. This is used to certify translations submitted to the public sector or other authorities, such as the Home Office.

The ATC’s Certification Stamp is awarded to Accredited ATC Member companies. It carries the member company’s name, membership number and the year. The Certification Stamp assures the receiving authority that the translation has been carried out by a company belonging to a professional industry association, and that the translation is a true and accurate reflection of the original document.

Translations certified with the ATC’s Certification Stamp signal to the recipient that the translation has been carried out by an Accredited Member of the Association of Translation Companies. It demonstrates that the company has passed the ATC’s strict membership vetting process, including checks on financial stability, quality management processes, client and supplier references and also holds suitable professional indemnity insurance.
