What are Guides & Manuals?

Almost every product comes with a user manual, this guide can be as simple as a card. A guide is either for a product or how to buy it. A manual serves as a reference book on the activity and provides instructions on how to perform it. Guides & Manuals translation means getting all the texts and contents of this document translated into a different language.

On the rare occasion that a certified translator is not available (e.g. There are no certified translators for a specific language combination), an affidavit of translation or a notarized translation may be accepted by most institutions. However, make sure to contact the institution to which you will submit the translated documents to ensure your translations will be accepted if they cannot be completed by a certified translator.


How can I send my Guides & Manuals to a translator?

To get a Guides & Manuals translated into English or French, you can :


  • Send the original, hard-copy version of the Guides & Manuals to a translator or translation agency. However, this option may be risky because the document can end up in the wrong hands or get lost on the way.
  • Email the translator or the translation agency a scan of the original copy of the document(s). While this option is safer and much more efficient than sending a hard copy document, it still requires a lot of back and forth between you and the translator or agent, if working with a translation agency.
  • Upload the Guides & Manuals on the Langia app or website. This is the most efficient and secure way to send your document(s) to a translator. There are no third-party operators that look over your personal document(s), no back and forth emails that could take hours or days to conclude.

Where can I find Guides & Manuals translation services near me?

Almost all translators and translation agencies provide online services. Although a hard copy may be required in rare cases, the interaction between a customer and translator or agency almost always occurs online. The internet brings together customers and translators across the globe and provides a medium to work together despite physical boundaries.


For example, if you live in Toronto and require an essay to be translated from Hindi to English, you can find hundreds of translators within Canada and thousands across the world. Although it may be compelling to work with a translator who charges thirteen cents per word, it may not always be the smartest option.


With any translation service provider, quality must always be your top priority. This is especially important if you require certified translations. As a resident of Toronto, you can work with translators certified by other provinces within Canada, such as ATIA (The Association of Translators and Interpreters of Alberta) or STIBC (Society of Translators and Interpreters of British Columbia). However, translators living in another county (except the USA) are not accepted as certified translators in Canada, meaning the work that they do will also not be accepted as certified translation.


Langia provides professional translation services throughout Canada. You can get your legal letters translated in Toronto, Ontario, without hassle.
