DOCUMENT CHECK
Start with the QR.
Verify with confidence.
Scan the QR image on the printed translation with your phone camera or QR scanner. It opens the individual verification page, where you can view the reference number and translation record. The translation copy is not displayed publicly.
i
Always compare the online record with the document in front of you. A verification record is not a guarantee of the original document’s authenticity or acceptance by an authority.

WHAT YOU CAN VERIFY
The details behind
each translation.
Compare these recorded details with the printed translation you received.
Document details
The document name or type, and the name of the person named in it. For a birth certificate, this is the birth person’s full name.
Registered sworn translator
The translator’s name and Ministry of Justice registration details. Translators working through the platform must be registered with the Ministry of Justice, Sri Lanka.
Issuing company
The translation company or branch that issued the document, its contact person and contact details.
A reference number after you scan
The reference number appears on the verification page after scanning; it is not printed on the document. Quote this number when calling us or the issuing translation company for further verification.
Valid record
A matching active translation record is available. Review the details and compare them with the printout.
Record not found / unverified
The reference could not be matched to an active record. Recheck the reference and contact the issuing company. This result alone does not establish that a document is fraudulent.
PRIVATE DOCUMENT COPIES
Need the translation copy
for an official check?
The translated document is not displayed publicly on the verification page. An embassy, authority, company or visa agency that needs a copy for verification can request it by emailing info@officialtranslation.lk.
Sent through official channels
Provide the document reference, your organisation’s name and your official contact email or WhatsApp number. We will send the translation copy officially to your organisation’s official email or WhatsApp contact.
The public check shows record details only. Translation copies are shared separately through the official request process.
A SIMPLE CHECK
From printout to record.
In three steps.
The printed QR code takes you directly to the document’s verification page.
Open the QR link
Find the QR image at the bottom right of the front page for a one-page document, or the back page for a two-page document. Scan it with your phone camera or QR scanner.
Read the verification result
After scanning, view the reference number alongside the translation date, document name, name in the document, translator registration and issuing-company contact details.
Match the document
Compare the online document details with your printout. For further verification, call us or the issuing translation company and quote the reference number shown on the verification page.
GOOD TO KNOW
A little clarity
before you verify.
What does document verification confirm?
It lets a reviewer compare the translation date, document type, name in the document, registered translator and issuing company with the platform record. It does not independently authenticate the original source document or establish government approval.
Does verification guarantee embassy acceptance?
No. Each receiving authority decides its own translation, certification and submission requirements. Confirm those requirements with the authority concerned.
What if the QR code does not work?
Check that you are scanning the QR image at the bottom-right corner of the correct page. If it is damaged or will not scan, contact us or the issuing translation company. If the page opens, quote the reference number displayed there when requesting further verification.
Is the translated document visible publicly?
No. The public verification page displays the translation record details, not the translation copy. Organisations needing the copy for verification can request it from us for official delivery to their official email or WhatsApp contact.
Can I order a translation here?
This website focuses on verification and platform partnerships. Contact your chosen translation company to arrange a translation or a correction.
