Translation services for Ontario businesses, individuals, and government
Ontario runs on more than one language. Our work covers the full spread: business documents, personal paperwork, government communications, and everything in between.
Our team handles translation services for businesses, individuals, and government organisations across Ontario, from federal departments in Ottawa to manufacturing in Windsor.
Whether you need French translation services in Toronto or certified translation services in London, Ontario, we can help.
Translation and language services across Ontario
We deliver translation services across Ontario’s largest cities: Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, London, and Windsor.
Beyond document translation, we offer interpreting services, localisation, and SEO translation, so your message reaches the audience you are trying to talk to.
Language translation
- French translation services: Ontario has a significant Francophone population, especially in Ottawa and the eastern part of the province. Our French translators handle business documents, contracts, marketing copy, and personal correspondence, with the right register for the audience.
- Spanish translation services: Spanish to English and English to Spanish, for businesses and individuals. We match terminology to the country you are targeting (Spain, Mexico, Colombia, and so on), not a generic Spanish.
- German translation services: For technical manuals, legal contracts, marketing material, and business correspondence. Our German translators work on the engineering and manufacturing side as well as commercial.
Specialised translation and interpreting
- Document translation services: Legal documents, medical records, business contracts, technical material. Confidential handling on every file.
- Certified translation services: Certified translations for immigration, legal matters, and academic submissions. Our certified translators in Ontario are recognized by ATIO, the provincial regulatory body.
- Notarised translation services: Notarised translations for legal proceedings and official submissions, where a notary’s stamp is required on top of the translator’s certification.
Each project goes to a translator with sector experience for that document type, not a generalist.
Interpreting across Ontario
We provide interpreting services across Ontario, both on-site and remote.
Available in Toronto, Ottawa, Hamilton, London, Mississauga, Brampton, Windsor, and Kitchener.
Our interpreters work in legal proceedings, medical consultations, business meetings, and conferences.
Types of interpreting we provide
- Legal interpreting: Court appearances, depositions, and legal consultations.
- Medical interpreting: Hospitals, clinics, and private practices, where accuracy between healthcare provider and patient carries direct safety consequences.
- Business interpreting: Meetings, negotiations, and corporate events.
- Conference interpreting: Simultaneous and consecutive interpreting for conferences, seminars, and large events.
- Community interpreting: Community services, social work, and educational settings.
- Telephone interpreting: On-demand interpreting by phone when in-person is not practical.
Our interpreters work across Ontario, matched to your sector and language pair.
SEO translation for Ontario audiences
Translating your website is one part of reaching customers online. Ranking in their search results is the other.
Our SEO translation services localise keywords, meta tags, headings, and on-page copy for the markets you target, so your translated content actually gets found.
- English SEO translation: Optimised English copy that ranks in Canadian search results.
- French SEO translation: For Ontario’s Francophone audience and Québec, French copy that ranks in French-language search.
- Spanish SEO translation: For Canadian businesses targeting Spanish-speaking customers, in Canada or abroad.
- German SEO translation: German copy that ranks on German-language search engines, for businesses selling into DACH markets.
Translated content that is not optimised for search will not get found. Optimised content brings you traffic, leads, and conversions in the markets you want to grow.
Translation services in Ontario cities
- Certified translation services in London, Ontario: Our certified translators handle legal, medical, and technical documents to the standards required for official use. Common cases: immigration files, legal documents, and specialised technical material.

- Translation services in Hamilton, Ontario: Technical manuals, marketing material, and business documents for Hamilton’s industrial and services sectors.
Certified, professional translators
Our Ontario translators are ATIO certified and have sector experience in the fields they work in.
We deliver certified translation services across Ontario, matched to the document type and the regulatory or industry standard it needs to meet.
Cities we cover
- Toronto: Our translation agency in Toronto works with the city’s multicultural client base across business, legal, and personal translation.
- Ottawa: Official and certified translations for federal government departments, agencies, and corporate clients.
- London, Ontario: Certified translation services built around local, federal, and international standards.
- Hamilton: Translation across all major languages and industries.
- Windsor: Translation services built for a border city, with the turnaround that cross-border business demands.
Ontario and Québec, working across the language line
Our work crosses provincial lines. A lot of Ontario businesses sell into Quebec, and a lot of Quebec businesses sell into Ontario. We handle both directions.
That means French translation for Ontario companies expanding into Quebec, and English translation for Quebec companies selling into Ontario. With provincial language laws in play in Quebec, the translation has to be done properly, or it does not pass.
Whether you need French translation services in Toronto or are growing your business into Québec, we have you covered.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I become a certified translator in Ontario?
You need certification from the Association of Translators and Interpreters of Ontario (ATIO). The process requires demonstrating fluency in at least two languages and passing ATIO’s certification exam in your specialisation (translation, interpretation, terminology, court interpretation, or conference interpretation).

Where can I get certified translation services in Hamilton, Ontario?
BeTranslated delivers certified translation services in Hamilton across all major language pairs and document types.
What is the difference between certified and notarised translations?
A certified translation is signed by a translator officially recognized by a provincial regulatory body (ATIO in Ontario). It is required for legal, educational, and immigration purposes.
A notarised translation adds a notary’s stamp on top, verifying the translator’s identity and confirming the translation is a true representation of the original. Notarised translations are required when the receiving authority demands that extra layer.
