Standard rates run from $0.08 per word, and most diaspora documents (birth and marriage certificates, single-form filings, diplomas) are quoted per page from $25. Every project receives a fixed-price quote before work begins, so there are no surprise invoices on delivery. See our full pricing overview or request a fixed quote for your specific document.

No — and this is where most generic translation shops fail. Zana is a native Gheg speaker and matches every Albanian document to a translator from the originating region, so a birth record from Pristina stays Pristina-Gheg rather than getting Tosk-ized. Family names, place names, and dialect vocabulary are preserved exactly. See Albanian-to-English services for the full Gheg and Tosk breakdown.

Yes. Every translation ships with a signed statement of accuracy in the format USCIS, immigration courts, and embassies expect — zero rejections on first submission for format. We have never had a translation rejected for certification issues, and notarized certificates are included at the Professional tier. See legal translation for the courts, embassies, and USCIS bundle.

Apostille is state-level certification for documents being sent abroad, only required if the destination country is a Hague Apostille member and the filing is outside the U.S. We coordinate the full chain (certified translation, notarization, and apostille) so you do not have to chase three separate offices yourself. See the Albanian birth certificate + apostille bundle for what applies to your situation.
