Does my employer need to provide any translated documents?

Only if the sponsoring employer's documentation is not in English. In most Australian sponsorship arrangements the sponsor's documents are already in English and only the applicant's overseas evidence requires translation.

Do I need to translate my overseas employment history?

Yes, if your contracts, references or payslips are in Spanish. Home Affairs assesses the nominated occupation against the actual role you performed overseas — the certified translation of the employment contract is the primary evidence.

Yes. Most 482 document bundles are returned same business day at $59 per page.

Which occupations require the most detailed translation?

Occupations assessed against the ANZSCO list — engineering, IT, healthcare, trades — need employment contracts and references translated in enough detail for the case officer to compare duties. Trans Lingo preserves job descriptions and duties in full.

Why NAATI certification?

The Department of Home Affairs, Australian courts and skills assessing bodies only accept translations prepared by a NAATI-certified translator. NAATI (the National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters) is Australia's official standards body. A certified translation carries the translator's NAATI stamp, ID number and certification statement, confirming to the case officer that the English document is a faithful representation of the original.

Trans Lingo prepares every Subclass 482 translation to this standard, priced at $59 per page with same-business-day delivery.
