What to know about Translators
Translation is an unlicensed occupation in the United States. No federal agency and no state board issues a translator's licence, and there is no American equivalent of the sworn or publicly appointed translator that many countries rely on. Anyone may open a translation business tomorrow. That comes as a shock to people who arrive holding documents from a system where a government-stamped translator was the only legal option, and it changes how buying works here: the job of checking a supplier falls on you, because no registry has done it first.
