When a party does not understand Croatian, many legal acts can only take place with an interpreter. We provide court interpreters and experienced interpreters for more than 35 languages, across Croatia and remotely.
Where we interpret most often
- At the notary: property purchases, contracts, inheritance and powers of attorney when a party does not speak Croatian
- Foreigners' weddings at the registry office: the interpreter translates the ceremony and the couple's declarations
- Courts, police and authorities: hearings, interviews and residence procedures
- Business meetings and negotiations: consecutive and whispered interpreting
- Conferences: simultaneous interpreting with equipment
- Online: video meetings and telephone interpreting
What we need for a quote
Date, place and duration, language pair, type of event and, if available, preparation material (draft contract, agenda). For notary or registry office appointments, contact us as early as possible, since the time has to be coordinated with the office.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a court interpreter to buy property in Croatia?
If you do not understand Croatian and the contract is signed or notarised before a notary, the notary will generally require an interpreter. We provide one and coordinate the appointment with the notary.
Do you provide interpreters for weddings?
Yes, for civil weddings at registry offices throughout Croatia, from Zagreb to Dubrovnik.
