Not sure exactly what you’ve been asked for?

Which document for which procedure?

Pick the office that’s asking you for paperwork. You’ll see what it usually wants, whether it normally requires a sworn translation, and what that costs. This reflects common practice. The final decision is always the office’s.

The list of required documents often says “translation by a sworn translator”. Some préfectures accept the EU multilingual standard form for civil-status certificates, so check yours. And if you’re a Bulgarian citizen, you don’t normally need a residence permit to live in France, as an EU citizen. These procedures mostly concern naturalisation or a non-EU spouse.

The office decides. If in doubt, go by its list of required documents, or ask in writing before you pay for a translation.

Your procedure isn’t listed? Describe it in the quote request and I’ll tell you plainly what you need.

A French document for use in Bulgaria? Then Bulgarian rules apply. Tell me which body it’s for, and I’ll tell you whether my sworn translation will do or whether you need another route.
