A translation bureau in Dedoplistskaro - a service that does not treat distance as a problem. From Dedoplistskaro to Tbilisi is three hours, and three hours back; for the translation of one certificate that means a whole day and the cost of fuel. In our scheme the document travels only once - and only if we need the original - and even that journey is made by the courier, not by you.
The economy of Dedoplistskaro municipality is built on the land: Shiraki wheat, pastures and sheep farming, sunflowers, wine. That is where the first group of orders comes from - documents of farmers, cooperatives and export companies. The second group is the same as throughout Kakheti: personal papers of family members working in Europe, of students and of patients. The third, smaller one is tied to tourism in Vashlovani National Park.
A fully remote scheme - step by step
For Dedoplistskaro we describe the process in particular detail, because every unnecessary trip here is expensive. This is what an order looks like in which nobody travels to Tbilisi:
A photo and one sentence
Photograph every page of the document in daylight, on a flat surface, with the corners visible. Send it by WhatsApp to 501 113 200 and add one sentence on its purpose (which authority or country) and the deadline you need.
An estimate within an hour
During working hours - Monday to Friday 10:00-19:00, Saturday 11:00-19:00 - we normally confirm the price, the deadline and the form of certification within an hour.
Translation and certification in Tbilisi
The translation is prepared, checked and, where needed, notarized. An apostille requires the original - in that case the courier collects the original from Dedoplistskaro.
Delivery in Dedoplistskaro
The electronic version - by email or WhatsApp as soon as it is finished; the certified original - by courier on an agreed day, in Dedoplistskaro or Tsnori.
Documents for farmers and export companies
Wheat grown on the Shiraki plain, Dedoplistskaro wine and wool are sold abroad, and farming cooperatives take part in foreign grants and equipment purchases. Each of these comes with its own set of documents:
- Export contracts, invoices and customs declarations - in English, Russian or Turkish
- Quality and origin certificates, phytosanitary and veterinary documents
- Grant applications, business plans and reports for donors
- Farm machinery manuals and warranty terms from a foreign language into Georgian
- Cooperative statutes, registry extracts and powers of attorney with a foreign partner
- Public Registry land extracts and lease agreements for an investor
Machinery manual translation deserves a separate mention: a combine harvester or milking system handbook running to many pages and supplied only in German or English is an everyday need for a farmer. Such a text is translated by a technical translator and needs no certification - which is why it also costs less than a legal document.
Personal documents for Europe and abroad
Many family members from Dedoplistskaro, Arkhiloskalo, Zemo Kedi and Samreklo work in Italy, Germany, Greece and Poland. They and their families regularly need translations of birth and marriage certificates, criminal record certificates, marital status certificates, bank statements, school certificates and diplomas, medical reports and powers of attorney. These documents almost always require notarization and often an apostille as well - exactly the two procedures that used to require a trip to Tbilisi and no longer do.
The opposite direction is active too: documents issued abroad - a foreign marriage certificate, the birth certificate of a child born abroad, a foreign diploma, an employment contract - that have to be submitted to Georgian authorities with a notarized Georgian translation.
Which languages do we work in for Dedoplistskaro?
Because of farm exports and machinery, English, Russian and Turkish lead in Dedoplistskaro, with German for technical manuals. For family documents we most often need Italian, Greek and Polish. Ukrainian, French, Spanish, Arabic, Chinese, Dutch and Czech are also available.
What to know when sending a photo - tips for a remote order
When the client is 150 kilometres away, asking for a new photo is lost time. So here are a few rules that make the very first submission sufficient:
Light and angle
Shoot in daylight, from above, without shadows. Photograph a glossy laminated certificate by the window at a slight angle, so the reflection does not cover the text.
Every page and the back
Stamps, notes and the apostille are often on the back. Send blank pages too - that way we know the document is complete.
ID attached
Names and surnames in the translation are spelled according to a valid ID card or passport. Send a photo of it from the start and you will not need to answer follow-up questions.
Price and guarantee
An order from Dedoplistskaro is priced on the Tbilisi basis - distance does not affect the cost; only the courier service is counted separately, and that too is agreed in advance. The price is always by agreement and is set after we see the document. The main components of the cost are the language, the number of pages, the type of text (a certificate, a contract, a technical manual) and any additional procedures. If an inaccuracy on our side turns up in a delivered translation, we check it as soon as you tell us and correct it free of charge - which matters especially for a remote client, because here the price of a mistake is a double journey.
Legally your counterparty is the sole trader Mariam Zumadze (ID 30601010853), who works under the TARGMANEBI name, with an office in Tbilisi at 118 Davit Aghmashenebeli Ave. Companies and cooperatives can pay by invoice and sign an NDA.
Vashlovani, ecotourism and protected area documents
Vashlovani National Park, the Eldari lowland and Takhti-Tepa attract foreign nature lovers, photographers and researchers. Around them a small but growing tourism business is appearing in Dedoplistskaro - guesthouses, guides, jeep tours. For them we translate the park's visitor rules and safety instructions, tour programmes, guesthouse descriptions for booking platforms and contracts with foreign tour operators. In the same field are documents of scientific cooperation: a foreign researcher's permit application, a research description and a report, which are needed in Georgian for the Agency of Protected Areas.
Tourism texts need no certification, and for scientific and permit documents certification with the bureau stamp is usually enough. In both cases the text is translated by a translator from the relevant field - biological terminology and place names are checked separately.
The proximity of the border with Azerbaijan creates one more stream: cross-border trade documents, certificates and statements issued in the neighbouring country, and two-way papers of families in the border villages. Such documents are often in Russian or Azerbaijani; Russian we translate directly, while for Azerbaijani we confirm availability and the deadline after seeing the document.
Keeping the original safe in transit by courier
When a birth certificate or a diploma travels 150 kilometres and back, the natural question is how safe that is. The original is handed to the courier in a sealed envelope, with confirmation of receipt; as soon as it arrives we send you a photo of the document so you know it is with us. In Tbilisi the document goes only to the notary and to the apostille procedure, the rest of the time it is kept at the office, and it comes back the same way. If a document is especially valuable - for example, the only copy - we establish before ordering whether it can be replaced by a notarized copy, so the original never has to leave your home at all.

Call: 501 113 200Frequently asked questions - translation in Dedoplistskaro
Is it really possible never to travel to Tbilisi at all?
Yes. You send us a photo, we carry out the translation and notarization in Tbilisi, and you receive the original by courier in Dedoplistskaro or Tsnori. Where an apostille is needed, the courier also collects the original and brings it back.
How often does the courier come to Dedoplistskaro and what does it cost?
The courier comes on an agreed day; the cost depends on the route and is fixed before the order starts. If you have several documents or orders from several families at once, combining them into one courier trip lowers the cost.
Which category does a German combine harvester manual fall into?
Technical translation without certification. The price is calculated by the number of pages and the complexity of the terminology; often it is enough to translate only the operation and safety chapters, which is much cheaper than translating the whole book - we will suggest this when we give the estimate.
Which documents are usually translated for wheat exports?
The contract, the invoice, the quality and origin certificate and the phytosanitary certificate - into the language of the importing country or into English. Which certification is needed where is decided by the receiving party; tell us the country and we will choose the form accordingly.
What do I need to translate for family reunification in Italy?
Usually the birth and marriage certificates, a marital status certificate and a criminal record certificate - into Italian, with notarization and apostille. The exact list is set by the receiving authority's requirements; send us that requirement and we will fit the package to it.
The photo came out blurry - do I have to send it again?
If an entry or a stamp is illegible, we ask you to re-photograph only that spot, not the whole document. The tips on this page - light, angle, the back side - make the first submission sufficient.
