French Canadian translation services in Kensington
Document translation is mostly handled by email: your file goes to a French Canadian native translator, the translated version comes back to you in the format you need. So even though this page is about Kensington, location matters less for translation than it does for interpreting: we deliver to clients in Kensington the same way we deliver to clients anywhere else in the UK. The Kensington-specific bit is the local context: if your document is for a Kensington solicitor, a Kensington hospital or a Kensington university, we'll handle the formatting and the accompanying paperwork the way those bodies expect.
Certified French Canadian translation
For most UK official use in Kensington (UKVI applications, court proceedings, university admissions, registry office work, Home Office cases), certified French Canadian translation is what's required. We provide that as standard: the translated document plus a signed declaration of accuracy on Prism Linguistics letterhead, with the translator's name and our company stamp. The UK has no sworn translators, so certification is what UK offices accept. If an office abroad also wants an apostille or a notarised copy, that step is yours or your solicitor's; we can translate documents that already carry one.
What we translate
How to order a French Canadian translation in Kensington
Send us the document. We'll come back within an hour during UK office hours with a price and a delivery date. A French Canadian native translator with the right subject background does the work; a second linguist reviews it; we deliver in the format you asked for. Standard turnaround for a short certificate is normally next working day; longer pieces are quoted with a realistic date.
English to French Canadian translator (and the other way round) in Kensington
We work in both directions. Customer-facing copy (websites, brochures, ads, emails) is adapted rather than translated word for word, so it reads like it was written in French Canadian in the first place. Legal, medical and technical documents stay faithful to the source, with formatting matched to the original.
Need a spoken-language interpreter in Kensington too?

Do I need a certified French Canadian translation?

About Kensington
Kensington is a district in central London, an area of international institutions, professional services and a notably cosmopolitan population. In a place where residents and clients come from all over the world, accurate communication across languages is part of everyday professional life. Solicitors and legal firms, GP surgeries and clinics, council and local authority services, schools and colleges, and businesses of every kind all handle situations that call for skilled interpreting or a certified translation. Prism Linguistics supports them with certified document translation, face-to-face interpreting, and telephone and video interpreting in more than 300 languages. Every assignment is completed by a qualified native-speaker linguist and then reviewed by a second linguist, so what you receive is accurate on both sides of the language. Everything we do meets UK GDPR and confidentiality standards, which matters when documents are legal, medical or personal. Prism covers Kensington and the neighbouring parts of central London, with interpreters available in person for meetings and appointments or connected remotely by phone and video when that is the faster route.

About the French Canadian language
French Canadian is the variety of French spoken in Quebec and other parts of Canada, differing from European French in accent, vocabulary and some legal terminology rather than being a separate language. Britain has no distinct French-Canadian community; the Canadians living here are mostly English-speaking, and French-speaking Quebecers are a small share, so demand is limited and specialised. Our work is usually documents that happen to originate in Quebec, civil-status certificates, court and notarial papers, and academic transcripts for UK ENIC, often for Home Office or study applications, which we translate with attention to Canadian rather than French wording. French is spoken by around 7 million people in Quebec and several hundred thousand more elsewhere in Canada.
