Frequently Asked Questions

What is the difference between translation and interpreting?

Translation converts written text from one language into another. Interpreting involves spoken or signed communication between languages. We provide both translation and interpreting services for clients in Sacramento and surrounding communities.

What is the difference between certified and notarized translation?

Certified translations include a signed statement confirming that the translation is complete and accurate. Notarized translations include an additional notarization of the certification when requested by the receiving institution.

Many institutions accept certified translations with a certificate of accuracy. Notarization may be added when specifically required.

What do California courts and USCIS require for translations?

California Courts: Translation requirements may depend on the court, filing, and case. Documents submitted in another language may require an English translation together with an appropriate translator declaration or certification.

USCIS: Foreign-language documents generally must be accompanied by a complete English translation with certification that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate from the source language into English.

If you are filing with a Sacramento-area court or government agency, please provide any instructions supplied by the receiving office so the certification can be prepared accordingly.

Do California court translation requirements vary?

Yes. Requirements can vary by California court, county, filing type, and case.

If your translation is intended for a court in Sacramento or elsewhere in California, please tell us the court, county, and type of filing and provide any instructions from the clerk or your attorney. We can then prepare the translation and certification according to the requirements provided for your filing.

What is the difference between an apostille and notarization?

Notarization verifies the identity and signature of the person signing a document or certification. An apostille is a separate authentication used for certain documents that will be presented in another country. Requirements depend on the document and where it will be used.

Can you notarize the Certificate of Accuracy?

Yes. We can arrange notarization of the translator’s Certificate of Accuracy when requested. Some agencies, schools, courts, or other institutions may request this additional step. Please tell us before finalization if notarization is required.

What factors affect cost and turnaround time?

Document length — longer documents may require additional time. Complexity — legal, medical, and technical documents may require specialized review. Language pair — availability may vary by language. Formatting — complex layouts may require additional preparation. Urgency — expedited service may be available when requested.

What is the difference between localization and transcreation?

Localization adapts translated content for a particular audience, region, or market. Transcreation recreates marketing or creative content so the message and tone work naturally for the intended audience.

How do you review translations for accuracy?

Proofreading and review of translated content Names, dates, and numbers checked against the source document Formatting reviewed for consistency with the source Draft review available before final certification when appropriate

What if I need to cancel my translation order?

Because translations are custom work, cancellations are generally not refundable once work has begun.
If you need to cancel, contact us as soon as possible. Charges may apply for work already completed.

How can I pay for your services?

We accept Zelle, PayPal, debit and credit cards, bank transfers, and cash for eligible in-office payments at our Sacramento location.

Professional Localization Services

Interpreting and ASL services

At American Translations & Interpreting Services, we offer expert localization services that go beyond simple translation. Whether you’re adapting a website, app, marketing campaign, or product manual, we tailor the content to match the cultural, linguistic, and regional expectations of your target audience — ensuring clarity, credibility, and connection.


What We Localize:

We help businesses and organizations localize a wide range of content, including:

  • Websites and e-commerce stores

  • Mobile and desktop apps

  • Software UI and documentation

  • Product packaging and manuals

  • Marketing materials and ad campaigns

  • Legal disclaimers and compliance text


Why Our Localization Services Make a Difference:

  • Human linguists with native-level fluency and cultural expertise

  • Transcreation services available for creative content

  • Localization engineers ensure layout and code compatibility

  • Consistency across platforms and languages

  • Delivered in your preferred file format (HTML, JSON, Word, etc.)

  • Final product is culturally relevant and technically accurate


Translation vs. Localization: What’s the Difference?

Translation converts text from one language to another, maintaining accuracy and meaning.
Localization, on the other hand, adapts that message to a new region — adjusting tone, context, measurements, layout, currencies, date formats, and even visuals to suit the local culture.

Example: A website translated into Spanish for Spain may need to be localized differently for Mexican or Argentinian audiences.


Trusted by Global and Local Brands

From tech startups to international companies, we’ve helped hundreds of clients localize their content for U.S., Latin American, European, and Asian markets. Our team works closely with you to maintain your brand voice while expanding your reach.
