Full scope protected

In a patent, the wrong word can narrow what you protect

A patent application lives or dies on precise language. The claims define exactly what is protected, and the technical description has to match. When the application is in Amharic and the filing needs English, a single imprecise term can change the scope of a claim, and that is a risk you cannot afford with an invention on the line.

Patent offices and counsel will not work from a loose translation. Without accurate technical wording and a certification statement, the filing is held up, and timing in patent work is everything.

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

Find clear answers to the questions people ask most about Amharic translation with us. See how the workflow runs, what it costs, how long it takes, where documents are accepted, which notarization choices exist, and the way your finished files reach you.

Do I need a certified translation to file my Amharic patent application with the USPTO or EIPO?

Yes. Filing across languages calls for certified translation. An Ethiopian inventor filing with the USPTO needs a certified English version, and a foreign inventor filing with the Ethiopian Intellectual Property Office (EIPO) needs a certified Amharic or English version.

Each certified translation carries a signed certification statement that the patent office expects for an official filing.

Will you translate my patent claims with enough legal precision to keep the same protection?

Yes. Claims define the scope of your intellectual property, so each element is translated with care to preserve its exact meaning.

Our translator renders the claim language so the English version provides protection equivalent to the original, rather than quietly narrowing or widening what you protect.

Can you handle the highly technical terminology in my Amharic patent application?

Yes. Our Amharic translators work with technical, scientific, and engineering terminology across fields such as biotechnology, mechanical engineering, software, and pharmaceuticals.

For a highly specialized invention, we assign a translator with subject matter experience so the description and claims stay accurate.

How do you handle the technical drawings and labels in my patent application?

We translate all text content in the application, including the description, claims, abstract, and the text labels inside technical drawings.

For labeled drawings we provide the translated text that you can apply to your figures. We do not alter the drawings themselves, but every textual element is translated accurately.

Can you translate a PCT international patent application involving Amharic?

Yes. We translate Patent Cooperation Treaty (PCT) applications and other international filings, whether you are an Ethiopian inventor seeking protection abroad or a foreign inventor filing in Ethiopia.

The certified translations are prepared to meet WIPO and national patent office requirements, including the EIPO.

How fast can you translate my patent application before a filing deadline, and what does it cost?

Standard delivery is 48 hours, and because patent filings often hinge on a priority date, we offer rush handling for same-day or urgent deadlines. Send us your filing deadline and page count so we can confirm timing.

Certified patent application translation starts at $24.10 per page, covering the translation, the signed certification statement, and delivery, with no hidden fees. Length varies with the complexity of the invention.
