What our translator checks
- Sri Lankan trilingual forms: we translate the handwritten Tamil entries under printed headings in Sinhala, Tamil and English.
- Names and initials: Tamil names often use the father's name as an initial; we follow your passport.
- Tamil Nadu certificates that are partly in English: the Tamil parts are translated.
Licence and visa rules in short
- Licence transfer: Sri Lanka and India are not on the Austroads list of recognised jurisdictions. Singapore is: a Singapore licence can be transferred without tests (other conditions apply). See which licences convert without a test.
- NSW: for a NSW licence transfer, only the Free Translating Service and Multicultural NSW are accepted, not private translations such as ours. See what NSW accepts.
- Visas: if you apply from Australia, Home Affairs asks for the translator's NAATI practitioner number on each translation, which ours show.
