Latvian Medical and Technical Translation by Physicians and Engineers

Worker health: obligātās veselības pārbaudes, arodslimības and injury records

Latvian employers must send workers for obligātās veselības pārbaudes (mandatory health examinations) with an arodslimību ārsts before starting and periodically, and Georgian workers' medical history - vaccination records, chronic condition records, prior occupational health certificates - is translated into Latvian for the examining physician, while the Latvian atzinums on fitness for work is translated into Georgian for the worker. When a worker is injured, the nelaimes gadījuma darbā akts, hospital records, the VSAA claim and any Valsts darba inspekcija documents need translation in both directions quickly and accurately, because compensation and return-to-work decisions depend on them. We translate these files with a physician handling the clinical part and a legal specialist the administrative one, and we interpret at hospitals and inspection interviews by video where needed. Employers and agencies use our framework agreements for this recurring work.

Izraksti and medical records for treatment in Latvia and Georgia

Georgian patients referred to Latvian hospitals - the Pauls Stradiņš Clinical University Hospital, the Riga East University Hospital, the Children's Clinical University Hospital and Latvian rehabilitation centers such as Jūrmala - and Georgian students at RSU using Latvian healthcare need their Georgian records translated into Latvian or English: the epicrisis (izraksts or epikrīze), izmeklējumu rezultāti, analīžu rezultāti, treatment protocols and vakcinācijas pase. Latvian residents and visitors treated in Georgian clinics need the reverse for their ģimenes ārsts, the Nacionālais veselības dienests and their employer. Our medical translators are practicing or former physicians and pharmacists; they keep ICD-10 codes, INN drug names, dosages and units exactly as written and never reinterpret a diagnosis, and they read the e-veselība digital records Latvian patients download. Translations are certified for clinics and notarized for insurers and the Georgian Social Service Agency.

Nacionālais veselības dienests, VSAA, disability and social documents

The Nacionālais veselības dienests asks for translated Georgian clinic invoices, izraksti and prescriptions when reimbursing treatment received in Georgia; Georgian insurers ask for Latvian records translated into Georgian. Cross-border social documents - darbnespējas lapas for sick leave, invaliditātes lēmumi from the VDEĀVK, maternitātes documents, VSAA medical reports and the S1 and S2 forms - are translated and notarized for Georgian employers, the Revenue Service and the Social Service Agency, and for Latvian authorities assessing Georgian nationals working in Latvia. These files mix clinical and financial content, so a physician translates the medical part and an accountant checks invoices and amounts.

Clinical trials, Zāļu valsts aģentūra registration and medical devices

Latvian pharmaceutical companies - Grindeks, Olainfarm and others - register products in Georgia and run trials at Georgian sites, and Georgian manufacturers look at the Baltic market. We translate pētījuma protokoli, pacienta informācijas lapas and piekrišanas veidlapas (with back-translation for ethics committees), pētnieka brošūras, case report forms and safety reports between Latvian and Georgian or from English into both, and for registration the zāļu apraksts, lietošanas instrukcija, certificate of pharmaceutical product, GMP certificates and CE declarations. For medical devices we translate lietošanas instrukcijas, technical documentation and atbilstības deklarācijas, keeping terminology aligned with Zāļu valsts aģentūra language on one side and the Georgian regulator's on the other.

Transport, timber and machinery documentation

Latvian transport companies' fleets, Latvian timber and wood processing equipment, Latvian modular construction and Latvian electronics reach Georgia, and Georgian drivers and technicians work with Latvian equipment and procedures. We translate lietošanas un apkopes instrukcijas, tehniskās specifikācijas, drošības datu lapas under REACH and CLP, forest management and FSC and PEFC documentation, and transport operating procedures between Latvian, Georgian, Russian and English with mechanical, electrical and transport engineers on the team, keeping identifiers and warning symbols intact and delivering in the original layout. For transport companies employing Georgian drivers we translate the darba aizsardzība and driving-time documentation into Georgian once for reuse, and incident and accident reports back into Latvian.

LVS standards, certification, patents, drawings and quality control

LVS and LVS EN standards, ISO 9001, 14001, 45001 and 27001 certificates, audit reports and kvalitātes rokasgrāmatas are translated for tenders, for Latvian customers auditing Georgian suppliers and for certification bodies such as Bureau Veritas Latvia and LATAK-accredited certifiers; testēšanas pārskati, kalibrēšanas sertifikāti and atbilstības deklarācijas for laboratories and regulators; and Latvian-language patent applications entering Georgia through Sakpatenti require Georgian translations of the apraksts, pretenzijas and kopsavilkums in patent language, with the reverse for Georgian applicants filing at the Patentu valde. Engineering drawings in AutoCAD DWG and DXF carry rasējumu rāmīši, notes and legends that we translate inside the files, returning them with layers and dimensions intact. Every medical and technical file passes through a subject specialist, a second bilingual reviewer and a numerical check comparing units, decimal separators (Latvian commas versus Georgian points), dosages, part numbers and reference ranges line by line against the source. Source errors are flagged rather than silently corrected, glossaries are agreed before bulk work begins, and certificates of accuracy and notarization are available for regulators, insurers and courts.
