Why Russian?
Russian is the official language of Russia, and it is widely spoken in Ukraine, Belarus, Kazakhstan and the Baltic states, as well as by Russian-speaking communities across London. It is written in the Cyrillic alphabet, so every name needs transliterating into English. Soviet-era papers add another layer, with older stamps and spellings. A Russian translation London clients can rely on has to get those names and stamps right.

What Our Clients Say
We brought in this team for a two-day assignment. Our client needed an interpreter throughout, and they delivered without a single issue. Punctual, professional, and the interpreter handled some fairly technical legal discussion without missing a beat.
English is not my first language and the legal process here was quite confusing. The interpreter was patient, not just translating words but making sure I understood what was going on. The price was fair, no surprises at the end.
Excellent service! Very professional.
Very affordable and professional.
I had an excellent experience with IM translation services. They delivered fast, professional, and reliable service at a very reasonable rate. Communication was smooth, and everything was handled efficiently without any delays.

Russian Translation London: How Our Service Works
Looking for Russian translation London clients can trust? We are an East Ham agency that translates Russian documents into English, and English documents into Russian. You send a scan by email or WhatsApp, and we send the certified PDF back. Our wider offer is on the certified translation page.
What is a certified Russian translation?
The translator signs a statement confirming the translation is accurate and complete, and adds the date and contact details. That signed statement turns an ordinary translation into a certified one. UK authorities usually require it for foreign-language papers.

What does the Home Office ask for in a translated document?
The Home Office wants a statement of accuracy from the translator, the date, their full name and signature, and how to reach them. We include every item. Other bodies, such as courts or universities, may add rules, so tell us who the translation is for.
Why do Russian names cause problems in English?
Russian is written in Cyrillic, and there is more than one way to spell a name in English. Алексеев can appear as Alekseev, Alekseyev or Alexeev. Patronymics and gendered surnames, such as Иванов and Иванова, add more variants. The English spelling must match your passport, or the receiving body may query it. Send your passport details with the order, and we match every name.
How do you translate Russian stamps, seals and Soviet-era documents?
Russian certificates often carry round stamps, registry codes and handwritten entries. We translate each one and mark anything unreadable. Soviet-era documents from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus or Kazakhstan may use older place names and faded ink. Send a clear scan of the whole page, and we flag any problem before we start.
Russian to English or English to Russian: what changes?
Russian to English is mostly official papers, so accuracy of names, dates, numbers and stamps comes first. English to Russian covers letters, contracts, leaflets and websites, so tone and level of formality matter more. Our Russian translation London team matches each job to a suitable translator.
Is a UK certified Russian translation valid in Russia?
Not always. The UK has no sworn translator system, and our certificates are made for use in the UK. If the translation is going to Russia, the receiving office decides what it accepts. Some ask for a notary or an apostille under the Hague Apostille Convention. Check with them before you order.
Do you translate Russian documents across the UK?
Yes. Documents travel by email or WhatsApp, so you can order from any town or city. The certified PDF comes back the same way, and a hard copy goes by post if you need one. You can also visit our office in East Ham by appointment.
Do you need notarisation or an apostille?
Not usually for use inside the UK, but the receiving body decides. A notary witnesses and seals a translation. An apostille is a stamp that lets a UK document be used abroad. Both are extra, so ask first and tell us when you order.
Translator or interpreter: which do you need?
A translator handles written text. An interpreter speaks aloud at a hearing, a clinic or a meeting. Many people need both. Our Russian interpreter page explains the interpreting side, and the court interpreter and immigration interpreter pages cover legal work.
How much does Russian translation in London cost?
Our Russian translation London rate is usually £35–£45 per page. The document type, the length, the clarity of the scan and your deadline all affect the price. Read how we quote for details. We confirm a fixed price before we start.
