Corpus does not provide notarization. We translate your document and prepare the signed certification that goes with it. Notarization is a separate act by a notary public. It is not part of any Corpus order. If a recipient has asked you for a notarized translation, ask them exactly what they require before you order — the answer is usually a certified translation, not a notarized one.
When someone asks for notarization of a translation, they usually mean a certified translation whose certificate signature is notarized by a notary public. The notary verifies identity and signature; the notary does not verify translation accuracy.
Corpus does not provide notarization. Requirements vary by court, school, attorney, agency, or other recipient, so read what yours asks for before you file. If a recipient has told you they want notarization, ask them exactly what they require, in writing, before you order anything — the common answer is a certified translation, which is what Corpus prepares.
Corpus provides certified document translation and Certificate of Translation Accuracy preparation. We do not provide legal advice, immigration filing help, or control over recipient decisions.
Most standard document translations do not need notarization. For a USCIS filing, 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) asks for a full English translation with the translator’s statement of completeness, accuracy and competence. That is certification, not notarization.
A recipient may still ask for a notary, most often for:
What to do if yours does: ask that recipient, in writing, for the exact requirement, and get it before you order anything. Corpus does not provide notarization, and we cannot tell you what a notary will accept.
Quote review is for something else. Send a file for quote review when it is dense, handwritten, unclear, or nonstandard and we cannot price it from the page count. A notary requirement is not a reason to use it.

Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document filed with USCIS must come with a full English translation, plus the translator’s statement that the translation is complete and accurate and that they are competent to translate.
