Mastery of Seychelles’ Local Languages
Seychelles boasts three official languages: Seychellois Creole, English, and French. All three languages are spoken by the majority of the population, and each plays a crucial role in various sectors of the country, from government institutions to businesses, to the local community.
- Seychellois Creole is the most widely spoken language, often used for day-to-day communication. As the lingua franca of the island, it’s vital for any language service provider in Seychelles to have native Creole speakers who understand the local nuances and idiomatic expressions.
- English is the dominant language in the business, legal, and educational sectors. As an international language, many companies and organizations operating in Seychelles need documents, contracts, and reports to be translated into English with precision and cultural sensitivity.
- French, with historical roots in the country’s colonial past, is also an important language, particularly for cultural, governmental, and diplomatic communications. The French-speaking population continues to play a significant role in both the public and private sectors.
At Applied Lingo, we specialize in providing translation and interpreting services in these languages, ensuring seamless communication for individuals and organizations in Seychelles.

The Importance of Conference Interpreting in Seychelles
Seychelles’ growing role in international conferences, business summits, and diplomatic discussions highlights the importance of simultaneous interpreting. Applied Lingo offers expert conference interpreting services in all three of Seychelles’ official languages. Whether it’s a small meeting or a large international conference, we ensure that language barriers don’t hinder communication.
At Applied Lingo, we pride ourselves on our ability to handle high-pressure events, where accuracy and speed are paramount. Our interpreters are trained in simultaneous interpreting, enabling them to translate speeches and discussions in real-time without interrupting the flow of the conversation. This service is especially crucial for international conferences held in Seychelles, such as those involving stakeholders from tourism, environmental conservation, or international business.

Applied Lingo’s Presence in Seychelles
Our services are not only limited to the capital, Victoria, but also extend to other parts of the country. While Victoria, the capital city on the main island of Mahé, serves as the economic, cultural, and political hub of Seychelles, we also cater to other cities such as Beau Vallon and Anse Royale. These cities are growing centers of activity, especially in the tourism sector, which means businesses in these areas also require our translation, transcription, and interpreting services.

FAQs
How does the cost for legal translation change?
The cost of legal translation services depends on various factors, including the language pair, document complexity, urgency, and required certification. Some legal documents require specialized expertise, making legal translation services more expensive due to the technical nature of the content.
Another major factor affecting pricing is turnaround time—urgent legal translation services typically come at a higher cost to ensure quality within a short deadline. Additionally, some translations require notarization, apostille, or an official stamp, which may increase the overall cost.
At Applied Lingo, we offer transparent pricing for our legal translation services and provide customized quotes based on your specific needs. We also offer discounts for bulk legal document translations and returning clients. To get an accurate estimate, simply send us your documents for a detailed cost assessment.
Do you provide translation certifications?
Yes, Applied Lingo specializes in certified legal translation services to meet the requirements of courts, government agencies, and official institutions. Our certified legal translation services come with a signed statement verifying that the translation is an accurate and complete representation of the original document.
Certified translations are commonly required for legal contracts, court documents, business agreements, immigration papers, and official records. If your legal translation services require additional authentication, such as notarization or an apostille, we can facilitate the process or provide guidance on how to obtain it.
Our team ensures that all legal translation services comply with jurisdictional requirements, avoiding potential delays in legal processes. We prioritize accuracy, confidentiality, and compliance with international legal standards.
What is the difference between legal, certified or official translation?
Legal translation services refer to the translation of legal documents such as contracts, court judgments, laws, patents, and agreements. These translations require an in-depth understanding of legal terminology and the legal frameworks of both the source and target languages.
Certified legal translation services include an official statement from the translator or agency verifying the accuracy of the translation. These are typically required for immigration, academic records, and official government use.
Official legal translation services refer to translations carried out by a government-approved or sworn translator. In some countries, only sworn translators can provide translations that are legally valid in court or administrative procedures.
While official legal translation services may include certification, not all certified translations are considered official. At Applied Lingo, we ensure that our clients receive the appropriate type of legal translation services to meet their specific needs.
What requirements should I provide for legal translations?
To ensure accuracy in our legal translation services, we require clear, legible copies of the documents. If your document contains handwritten sections, providing a typed transcription can improve accuracy.
For certified legal translation services, we may need to include an official declaration with the translator’s signature and contact details. Some legal authorities may also require notarization, so it’s important to verify the specific requirements with the receiving institution.
Clients seeking legal translation services should inform us of any specific formatting, terminology, or jurisdictional preferences to ensure compliance with legal standards. Applied Lingo provides guidance on document submission and ensures that all legal translation services meet legal and professional requirements.
Do you provide legal interpreting?
Yes, Applied Lingo offers legal interpreting as part of our legal translation services for court hearings, legal consultations, depositions, and business negotiations. Our legal interpreters are highly trained in courtroom procedures, confidentiality rules, and complex legal terminology.
We provide both on-site and remote interpreting through video or phone calls, depending on the client’s preference. Whether you need consecutive or simultaneous interpreting, our legal translation services ensure seamless communication between all parties.
For jurisdictions requiring sworn interpreters, we also provide officially accredited professionals to handle sensitive legal matters. If you need to book an interpreter as part of our legal translation services, we recommend scheduling in advance to secure availability, especially for urgent legal proceedings.
