Attending court or a medical appointment with a Chinese interpreter? Work with a NAATI-certified professional. Bring key documents, speak in short sentences, and be clear. Professionals should speak directly to the client, avoid jargon, and allow pauses for interpretation. Don’t rely on untrained bilingual staff—accurate interpretation protects your rights and safety.

Need a NAATI-certified translation for immigration, court, or study in Australia? Always verify your translator. Ask for their NAATI ID, check their credentials on naati.com.au, and confirm details match the translation. If you used an agency, search the translator’s name in the Online Directory and contact them directly to confirm authorship. This ensures your document is valid and avoids costly delays.
