Danish-Georgian Translation Services in Tbilisi - Marriage in Denmark, Residence Permits, Universities and Danish Business

Danish and Georgian: weddings, work, study and Danish organizations in Georgia

The single largest reason a Georgian document goes to Denmark is marriage. Since the 1990s Danish municipalities - Copenhagen, Tønder, Ærø, Sønderborg, Frederiksberg - have married foreign couples on the basis of a passport, proof of legal stay and a civil status certificate, without the residence requirements and long waits of other countries, and Georgian citizens marrying EU partners, or each other while living abroad, have used this route in large numbers; since 2019 the Familieretshuset (Agency of Family Law) examines every application involving a foreign partner centrally before the municipality performs the ceremony. Beyond weddings, Denmark's Positive Lists and Pay Limit Scheme bring Georgian engineers, IT specialists, doctors and nurses to Danish employers through SIRI, Danish universities admit Georgian students to English-taught programs, and family reunification through Udlændingestyrelsen follows. In Georgia, the Danish Refugee Council has worked with displaced people since the 1990s, Danish wind, district heating, water and agricultural technology companies supply Georgian projects, Danish pharmaceutical companies register products, and Danish tourists find a Caucasus that reminds them of nothing at home.

Denmark certifies translations differently from its neighbors. The statsautoriseret translatør title was abolished in 2016, and Danish authorities now accept translations from translation agencies and qualified translators with a certification statement, requiring notarization by a Danish notarius publicus or a foreign notary with apostille for legal proceedings and some registrations. Danish apostilles are issued by the Udenrigsministeriet's legalization office in Copenhagen. Georgia has the notarized translation. Our Danish team at David Agmashenebeli Ave 117 - Georgian sworn translators with Scandinavian training and native Danish editors - produces what each Danish office accepts.

Ordering from Tbilisi, from Denmark or from anywhere in Georgia

Clients in Tbilisi send a photo on WhatsApp for a quote within 15 minutes and bring the original to Agmashenebeli 117, near Marjanishvili Metro, where the translation is notarized while they wait. Passports and driving licenses are translated from the photo alone and delivered by courier, without a visit. Couples planning a Danish wedding from anywhere in Europe, and clients in Copenhagen, Aarhus, Odense or Aalborg who need a Georgian document, usually have the original with family in Georgia; we collect it, translate, notarize, apostille and ship by DHL with tracking, which reaches Denmark in two to three days, or deliver a digitally signed scan the same day for Familieretshuset's online application. Clients in Batumi, Kutaisi and elsewhere send originals by courier and receive the finished documents back while our regional offices are being renovated.
