Clears on first submission

A Japanese document that clears on the first submission

An office is waiting on your Japanese document, and the deadline is close. The worry is real: a translation that reads well but is not certified correctly can be rejected, and a rejection sets back a visa, an admission, or a job offer.

Most rejections come down to a few causes. The certification wording is wrong, a name is spelled inconsistently across pages, or the translator is not one the receiving office recognizes. A certified Japanese translation done right removes those risks before they cost you.

Native Japanese professionals

Japanese translation, handled by native-speaking professionals

A vetted human linguist, native in Japanese and fluent in English, completes the translation with regular review for consistency.

For clients here and abroad, we have produced thousands of Japanese translations, both certified and standard. The service supports immigration, education, business, and personal needs through a secure online platform.

Pricing is shown before you pay. Certified Japanese translation starts at $24.10 per page, professional translation costs an average of $0.09 per word, and we cover 120+ languages. Upfront pricing, fast turnaround, and dependable accuracy.

I purchased a translation on Friday and expected a 24-hour turnaround but also ordered a notary not knowing it wasn't part of the estimated time. Unsurprisingly I needed it immediately. I emailed support and within a few hours, it was completely signed and notarized! Hats off to y'all!

Frequently Asked Questions

Have a question about Japanese translation with ABC? This page walks through how the work is done, what you pay, how quickly it is delivered, where the result is recognized, your notarization choices, and the way the finished translation reaches you.

Will a U.S. university accept your certified Japanese translation of my transcript?

Yes. Our certified Japanese translations are accepted by universities across the United States and internationally. We know what admissions and registrar offices look for, and every translation includes the elements a university needs for enrollment and credit transfer.

Do you translate Japanese academic transcripts, diplomas, and course descriptions?

Yes. We translate Japanese academic transcripts, diplomas, degree certificates, and course descriptions. Our native Japanese linguists carry over grades, course titles, and institution names accurately, so the document reads the way an evaluator expects.

Is your certified Japanese translation accepted by credential evaluators like WES and ECE?

Yes. Our Japanese translations are accepted by major credential evaluation services, including WES, ECE, and other NACES members. We prepare your academic documents in the form these evaluators ask for when they assess Japanese credentials.

How are Japanese names and kanji handled so they match my other records?

Because every Japanese translation is done by a native speaker rather than a machine, names written in kanji are rendered consistently and matched to the spelling on your passport or other records. That keeps a reviewer from flagging a name that looks different from page to page.

How much does a certified Japanese translation cost and how fast can I get it?

Certified Japanese translation starts at $24.10 per page, and professional translation averages $0.09 per word. You see the exact price before checkout, with no hidden fees.

Standard turnaround is 48 hours from when we receive your document. For an admission or visa deadline, ask about rush options, since most Japanese documents are ready in hours.
