Tell us where the Dutch translation will be submitted

Dutch Documents from the Netherlands, Belgium & Beyond
Dutch is used in several jurisdictions, and administrative, educational, civil and legal terminology can differ according to where the document was issued.
Country-specific Dutch terminology matters
A civil certificate, academic record or legal document issued in the Netherlands may use terminology that differs from equivalent Dutch-language documentation issued in Belgium or another jurisdiction.
Providing the country of issue helps us interpret institutions, official titles and administrative terminology in the correct context.
Dutch Names, Spelling & Official Terminology
Names & Dutch Spelling
Dutch names can contain prefixes such as van, van der, de, den and other elements that should be reproduced consistently with the source document and official identification.
Clear document copies also help ensure that registration numbers, dates, stamps and handwritten entries are read accurately.
Official & Administrative Terms
Dutch civil, legal and academic documents often use terminology specific to municipalities, courts, educational institutions and government authorities.
The correct English rendering depends on the context and function of the term within the original document.
