ATC Certification Stamp

The ATC’s Certification Stamp is awarded to Accredited ATC Member companies.

Translations certified either digitally or as a hard-copy with the ATC’s Certification Stamp signal to the recipient that the translation has been carried out by an Accredited Member of the Association of Translation Companies. It demonstrates that the company has passed the ATC’s strict membership vetting process, including checks on financial stability, quality management processes, client and supplier references and also holds suitable professional indemnity insurance.

Accredited ATC Members’ membership can be verified via the ATC’s Member Directory, available at atc.org.uk/member-directory/.
