Certified & Specialized Translations
Certified translations for decisions that leave no room for error.
Over 10 years of professional experience.
01 · Who we are
When a document crosses borders, every detail counts.
Lingua Franca works with documents whose content must be understood, evaluated or submitted to public, private, academic and professional institutions.
Our work combines linguistic precision, specialized terminology, careful review and professional document formatting to produce translations that are ready for their intended purpose.
02 · Services
Translations for the moments that truly matter.
03 · Specialization
More than translating words. We understand the context.
Professional document translation requires decisions that a generalist translator or an automated tool does not make. Each document is prepared with its receiving institution and its purpose in mind.
01
Terminology & equivalents
Specialized terminology and educational equivalents based on the academic or professional system of the destination country.
02
Institutional nomenclature
Names of institutions, degrees and positions, interpreted in their documentary context before translation.
03
Structure of the original
Tables, codes, numbering and layout reproduced from the original document to make institutional review easier.
04
Seals, signatures & formal elements
Seals, signatures and formal annotations noted with professional judgment, without altering the documentary value of the original.
05
British or American English
The language variant is chosen according to the receiving country and institution, along with date, number and formatting conventions.
04 · Our quality standard
How can I know my translation was actually reviewed?
We make visible the technical work behind every translation.
At Lingua Franca, every translation is delivered with a Quality Control Report that documents the checks performed, the criteria applied and the key decisions made to preserve fidelity to the original.
You receive more than a certified translation: you receive evidence of the professional process behind it.
Fidelity to the original
Content checked against the source document.
Data verification
Names, dates, figures, codes and sensitive data verified.
Terminology review
Terminology reviewed for the document and its context.
Final review
Proofreading and visual check before delivery.
More than a translation. A documented process of precision and quality.

10 · Frequently asked questions
Before you send your document.
What do I need to send to get a quote?
A legible photo or file of the document, plus the country or institution where it will be submitted. With that, we can confirm the cost, turnaround time and procedure.
Do you work with clients outside Ecuador?
Yes. We serve clients in Ecuador and abroad, with documents intended for institutions in Ecuador and internationally.
When will my translations be ready?
Turnaround time depends on the volume and complexity of the documents. Before we begin, we agree on a delivery date that fits your actual needs and confirm it in the quote.
Do you work in both British and American English?
Yes. The variant is chosen according to the destination country and institution of the document.
