Malagasy translation services in Glasgow
Document translation is mostly handled by email: your file goes to a Malagasy native translator, the translated version comes back to you in the format you need. So even though this page is about Glasgow, location matters less for translation than it does for interpreting: we deliver to clients in Glasgow the same way we deliver to clients anywhere else in the UK. The Glasgow-specific bit is the local context: if your document is for a Glasgow solicitor, a Glasgow hospital or a Glasgow university, we'll handle the formatting and the accompanying paperwork the way those bodies expect.
Certified Malagasy translation
For most UK official use in Glasgow (UKVI applications, court proceedings, university admissions, registry office work, Home Office cases), certified Malagasy 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. Sworn or apostilled formats are available if your receiving body asks for those instead; just tell us at quote stage.
What we translate
How to order a Malagasy translation in Glasgow
Send us the document. We'll come back within an hour during UK office hours with a price and a delivery date. A Malagasy 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 Malagasy translator (and the other way round) in Glasgow
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 Malagasy 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 Glasgow too?

About Glasgow
Glasgow is Scotland's largest city and a major centre for healthcare, law, education and business, which creates constant demand for translation and interpreting across its diverse communities. Prism Linguistics provides professional translation and interpreting in Glasgow for the public sector, legal firms, universities and private businesses. NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde is the largest health board in the UK, running hospitals and clinics where multilingual patients regularly need a face-to-face or telephone interpreter for appointments, maternity care and mental-health assessments. Glasgow Sheriff Court at Carlton Place, one of the busiest courts in Europe, hears both criminal and civil cases, and solicitors instruct us for court-experienced interpreters and certified translations of evidence and identity documents. The University of Glasgow and the University of Strathclyde draw international students and staff who need certified translations of degree certificates and transcripts. We provide certified document translation, face-to-face interpreting, and video and telephone interpreting across the city and the wider Strathclyde area, from the G postcodes in the centre to Paisley, Clydebank and East Kilbride. Each job is handled by a qualified native-speaker linguist and reviewed by a second linguist, so certified documents and interpreting appointments meet UK professional and confidentiality standards, including work funded through Scottish legal aid.

About the Malagasy language
Malagasy is the national language of Madagascar and, unusually for an African island, an Austronesian language whose closest relatives lie in Borneo rather than mainland Africa. Its speakers in Britain are few and without a settled community of their own, so Malagasy requests tend to be occasional rather than regular. When they arise, our work is mostly civil documents, birth and marriage certificates, for Home Office and UKVI immigration, settlement and asylum applications, along with court and tribunal papers and academic transcripts evaluated by UK ENIC where a qualification needs recognising for study or professional registration. Malagasy has around 25 million speakers, almost all of them in Madagascar and the nearby Indian Ocean islands.
