Business clients often don't need any official certification at all as soon as the translation is done quickly and with good quality.
Translation Agency of Canada has been helping individual clients and organizations all across Canada and abroad with translations of their documents for the last 20 years.
Most of our translations are done by translatorsnative to the target language and certified in the corresponding language pair by an association of professional translators in Canada.
We carefully review requirements from the client and from the appropriate authority on how to certify the translations in each case.
Given how requirements from different authorities can vary, our translations can be certified by the translators themselves, by a manager of the Agency, by a Commissioner of Oaths, or by a Notary Public. Sometimes translations need to be authenticated and legalized (and we do that, too!)

Non-Certified Translations
Business clients usually don't need any official certification at all. The translations are the same and are done by the same highly-skilled translators, it's just that we all save money on removing unnecessary certification paperwork.
Most of the translations are certified by our Agency and a Commissioner of Oaths in Canada. Such translations satisfy the requirements of Canadian immigration authorities, employers and insurance companies.
Rarely, translations need to be done and stamped specifically by translators who are members of an association of translators in Canada (ATIO, OTTIAQ, STIBC, etc.). Most government offices do not require such certification but some licensing organizations do.
Sometimes, embassies and consulates (Russia, Cuba, Mexico, Spain, and a few others) require translations to be notarized by a Notary Public in Canada. This is usually for use outside of Canada.
