When you need a text translated from English into Estonian (however large, or small), you want to ensure that the translation agency (or individual translator) that offers you the English-Estonian translation service guarantees that:

• The translation is handled by a certified professional (do not be too shy to ask for a proof of certification, licences or documentation supporting credentials);
• The translator is a native-speaker of Estonian;
• The target text (your Estonian translation) is proofread by a second native Estonian professional (some charge an extra fee for it, but a good translation service provider will include it in their initial quote)

If you need the translation notarized (for instance, for the immigration or naturalization purposes), most translation agencies can handle this at a nominal cost of US$ 5-15. If you are looking for a medical translator into or from Estonian, make sure they posess the approporate certification. Same goes for court interpreters that need to be court-sworn, and sometimes also possess appropriate U.S. or international certification. At present, there exist federal certification programs for Spanish, Haitian Creole and Navajo. Depending on what state you are in the situation may vary. Some states (Washington, California, New Jersey) test interpreters of several languages. Many states have no certification at all. In case with Estonian, in most cases it will suffice for a translator to possess professional credentials to interpret in court.
