Certified translations are billed per page (250 words or fewer = 1 page) at $9.90/page, include notarization at no additional cost, and come with a signed certificate of accuracy — use them for USCIS, immigration, courts, and other official filings. Standard translations — branded as AI Translation on translate.law — are billed per word at $0.01/word, fully automated with no manual review, and are meant for internal or business use where certification isn't required. Rush delivery (1-2 hours) is available as an add-on on either service type.

Notarization is included at no extra cost on certified translations, so it doesn't add to the total — pass it anyway to have it explicitly reflected in the order and delivered with the final document.

Turns a priced quote into a payable order and creates a PayPal checkout for it.

}

Send your customer to paypal_approval_url to complete payment. Once PayPal confirms it, the order moves to processing automatically and translation begins — no further action needed on your end.

Only allowed while an order is pending_payment or on_hold.
