Target languages include German (EPO), French (EPO), Japanese (JPO), Chinese (CNIPA), Korean (KIPO), Russian (Rospatent), plus Arabic for GCC and Spanish for Latin American filings.

Patent translation is among the most technical translation categories, claims drafting, technical drawings labels, the precise scope of independent / dependent claims, prior-art references, and inventor declaration statements all have to be translated with patent-drafting expertise rather than general translation. A mistranslated claim narrows or invalidates the protection scope. SiZA Global routes patent translation to translators with prior patent-drafting experience in the specific technical domain (mechanical, electronics, pharma, biotech, software).
Send the patent application or specification along with the target patent office and deadline on WhatsApp +91-9220161774. We share the per-word rate (which is typically higher than ordinary translation because of the technical specialisation), working-day timeline (often 2-4 weeks for a full patent application), and a written quote before any translation begins.

Terminology, glossary, and certification format
- 1
Patent translation is one of the highest-stakes translation domains, a single mistranslated claim can narrow or invalidate the patent. Filing-jurisdiction-specific terminology matters (USPTO, EPO, JPO, CNIPA, KIPO all have slightly different conventions).
- 2
For PCT national phase entry, the typical timeline is fixed by international deadlines (30 / 31 months from priority date). Translation should be commissioned 6 to 8 weeks before the deadline, not at the last minute.
- 3
Domain expertise matters more than language proficiency. A general translator can render words; a patent-specialist translator preserves technical scope. SiZA uses domain-specialist translators for patent and trademark filings.
- 4
Trademark translation is different from patent translation, it involves transliteration, phonetic considerations, and sometimes alphabet conversion (Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Cyrillic). For brand-naming exercises, transliteration plus cultural review is essential.
Project-volume and language-pair factors
- IP / patent translation turnaround (technical-glossary heavy)
- Authentication chain where required
- International courier transit
Common scope and terminology mistakes
- Using general translators for highly technical IP / patent text
- Translating before authentication chain where the destination IP office requires it
- Underestimating page count + technical-glossary turnaround
Why SiZA on business translation
- Technical IP / patent translation by specialised translators across major language pairs
- Coordination with Indian Patent Office / WIPO / destination IP office filing requirements
- Translation alongside authentication chain where required

How SiZA Runs a Business Translation Project
Before any translation begins, SiZA reviews the source materials, confirms the destination jurisdiction's acceptance format, and shares a per-word or per-page rate with a working-day timeline.
What to send first
Review the requirement
Share the document scan, destination country, purpose, deadline, and where the original document is currently kept.
Confirm the right process
SiZA checks whether the file needs apostille, embassy attestation, HRD/Home, Chamber, translation, visa documentation, or a combined process.
Handle and update
Once the scope is clear, the file moves through the required steps with practical updates by WhatsApp or email.
Proof and return
After completion, SiZA shares completion proof, confirms payment and courier preference, then packs and dispatches the document safely.

Clear Updates
Customers receive updates through WhatsApp or email as the file moves through review, submission, completion, and dispatch.
Completion Proof
When work is completed, SiZA can share photos or videos so the customer can verify the result before return dispatch.
Safe Return
Return delivery is packed carefully and sent through trusted courier options after address and courier preference are confirmed.
No Shortcut Claims
SiZA does not promise fake shortcuts, bypass personal appearance rules, or help with forged or non-genuine documents.
Frequently Asked Questions
When do documents need certified translation?
Certified translation is required when an Indian document is submitted to a foreign authority whose working language is not English. Italy, Germany, France, Spain, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Slovenia, Poland, Russia, the GCC (Arabic), and many others ask for certified translation alongside (or after) the apostille. The format varies, Italy uses Embassy-empanelled translators, Germany uses sworn translators (vereidigter Übersetzer), Spain uses Traductor Jurado, Czech Republic uses soudní tlumočník. SiZA Global confirms the accepted format for the receiving authority before translation begins.
Stories from corporate translation clients
“My US university required official certified English translations of my degree and transcripts. The translations SiZA provided were accepted immediately. They formatted everything exactly as the university required and included the certification statement. No back and forth at all.”
Kavitha Rajan
Student, USA university admission
Chennai, India
“Germany required both apostille on my transcripts and certified German translation. SiZA coordinated both at the same time — I submitted documents once and got back apostilled originals with certified German translation. They also confirmed APS requirements for my university application.”
Meera Pillai
Student, Germany study visa
Thiruvananthapuram, India
“Italy requires Italian translation done by an empanelled translator for study visa documents. SiZA provided the translation with the translator's seal and declaration. The Italian consulate in Chennai accepted the translations without asking for any corrections. I'd tried another service before SiZA — that translation was rejected. The difference was obvious.”
Rajan Krishnamurthy
Student, Italy Master's programme
Chennai, India
“Czech university and consulate both needed Czech-language translations of my degree and school leaving certificate. SiZA arranged certified Czech translation along with apostille on the originals. The Czech consulate in Delhi accepted everything on the first submission. I didn't have to do a second round.”
Shreya Kapoor
Student, Czech study visa
Delhi, India
“Saudi employment visa required Arabic translation of my degree, experience certificate, and police clearance. SiZA provided certified Arabic translation with attested seal — the format Saudi employers and MOFA recognise. All three documents translated and delivered quickly. My Saudi visa file was accepted without any translation-related rejection.”
Imran Shaikh
Project manager, Saudi Arabia employment
Mumbai, India
“German-language translation of my Master's degree, mark sheets, and research publications was needed for my PhD admission. SiZA's certified German translation was formatted with the correct certification statement. The university directly confirmed the translations were in acceptable format. Saved me from sending them off for a second opinion.”
