A translation bureau for Khashuri - TARGMANEBI's service for a town people set off from every day and from which cargo moves in every direction. Most of our orders fall into two groups: professional transport documents, and family papers, because many people from Khashuri work abroad. In both cases everything is done at a distance and quickly - the photo arrives, we assess it, complete the work, go to the notary where necessary, and the courier hands the finished paper over in Khashuri. Tbilisi is an hour and a half away and the route runs regularly.
Drivers and international haulage
For a driver working international routes, a document is as much a working tool as the lorry. The papers needed most often:
Personal qualifications
- Driving licence and confirmation of its categories
- Professional competence and retraining certificates
- Certificates for carrying dangerous goods
- Medical certificates and occupational examinations
- Certificates of work experience from the employer
Employment abroad
- Employment contracts with a foreign company
- Invitations and work visa packages
- Criminal record certificate and other papers for the embassy
- Certificates on insurance and social contributions
- After returning - service and tax documents
On the route
- Waybills, invoices and customs documents
- Permits, policies and carriage conditions
- Penalty notices and correspondence with authorities
- Accident reports and insurance claims
- Vehicle repair and service documents
The most sensitive points in a driver's documents are the categories and the dates: licence categories have to be tied to the receiving country's system, and the validity periods of certificates have to be plainly visible. So in such translations we keep the category codes in their original form and, where needed, add an explanatory note. With an employment contract we always recommend a Georgian version - the number of runs, the payment scheme, the rest regime and the liability are set out exactly where disagreements most often arise later.
Transport companies and logistics
For the transport and forwarding companies based in Khashuri, translation is a constant work stream: carriage contracts with foreign partners, tariffs and offers, insurance conditions, claims over damaged cargo, customs correspondence, documents for buying and leasing vehicles. The railway direction forms a separate group - wagon, cargo and terminal documentation, where the accuracy of numbers and designations is decisive. Regular clients are offered stored templates and a terminology base: a standard contract is translated once and only the details change for each new partner. That cuts both cost and time, and keeps the text consistent, which works in the company's favour in a dispute.
Families, study, health
Many family members from Khashuri work in Europe and Turkey, so family papers arrive with us constantly: certificates for embassies, powers of attorney and consents, documents relating to a child travelling, school and academic certificates, medical histories. A separate group is documents issued abroad that have to be submitted to a Georgian authority - certificates, court decisions, service records. We handle such cases as one package and anchor the spelling of names to the valid passport, because a differing entry is the most frequent reason a document comes back. If several family members need papers at once, sending them together is both faster and cheaper.
Garages, machinery, imports
A crossroads town has its own service infrastructure - garages, spare part shops, repair workshops, importers of tyres and oils. Their work is tied directly to foreign-language documentation: parts catalogues and codes, repair manuals, diagnostic software interfaces, warranty conditions, correspondence with suppliers and claims over defective batches. In texts of this kind what matters most is carrying the part number and the model across exactly - those are not translated and stay unchanged, because that is what an order is placed with. For vehicles and special machinery imported from abroad we translate technical passports and sale and origin documents for registration, with identification numbers checked twice. Regular service businesses are offered a stored term list, which saves time on every new catalogue.
Warranty and insurance questions often come with the machinery: warranty conditions, refusals to pay, expert reports. In these texts the most important part is where the exclusions are listed - that is exactly where it says in what circumstances you lose the right. A Georgian version of such a document costs less than one missed clause that later turns into a repair bill.
Local service businesses also frequently ask for advertising and information texts - price sheets, service lists, website sections - aimed at foreign drivers and passengers passing through. Such texts need no certification; what matters is simplicity and clarity, because someone stopped on the road does not read a long text.
Languages in orders from Khashuri
Russian and English lead in Khashuri - the first in haulage and regional correspondence, the second in international contracts and universal documents. Turkish is among the most requested because of the routes and employment, Polish, Czech and Dutch with European haulage companies, German and Italian in machinery and family papers, Ukrainian in work and transport documents. We also work in French, Spanish, Greek, Arabic and Chinese.

A photo, even from the road
Send it by WhatsApp to 501 113 200 or to info@targmanebi.ge - drivers frequently send from a run, and that is entirely sufficient.
What you need it for
An employer, an embassy, customs or an insurer - the recipient decides the language and whether the bureau stamp is enough or a notary and an apostille are needed.
Fast completion
We move an urgent document up the queue; categories, validity dates and numbers are checked separately so that the foreign authority accepts it first time.
Receiving it
The file by email at once, certified paper by courier to Khashuri or to a family member at the Tbilisi office.
Price, turnaround and guarantee
The tariff for Khashuri is the Tbilisi one. A driving licence or a one-page certificate is completed the same day, a notarized package for a driver in two days, an employment contract in two days, transport documents with the bureau stamp within working hours, an accident and insurance package on the urgent regime, a full family package in three days, an apostilled document on the timing of the procedure. Companies have agreed prices, stored templates and a single monthly settlement. The terms of your contracts, your tariffs and the content of personal documents are not discussed outside our walls. The bureau's responsible person is Mariam Zumadze, sole trader (ID 30601010853), a lawyer by education - which is why we treat the wording of contracts and insurance texts with particular care.

Call: 501 113 200Frequently asked questions - translation in Khashuri
I work international routes. Which documents are translated most often?
The driving licence, professional competence and special carriage certificates, the medical certificate and proof of experience. We keep the category codes in their original form and add an explanation, so that a foreign employer sees exactly what you are licensed to drive.
I have received a contract from a foreign company. Is it worth translating into Georgian?
Strongly recommended. The contract is exactly where the payment scheme, the number of runs, the rest regime, the penalties and the liability for damaged cargo are set out. The cost of the translation is negligible next to what one unclear clause can cost you.
There was an accident abroad and the insurer is asking for documents.
The report, the certificates and the medical sheets go into the insurer's language without a queue, and their letters into Georgian. We collect everything into one case and normally deliver the same day: the deadline for a claim in such cases is very short.
We are a company with a standard contract. Does it have to be translated from scratch every time?
No - we prepare a bilingual template once, and afterwards only the parties' details, the dates and the tariffs change. That is far cheaper and keeps the text consistent, which works in your favour in a dispute.
Several family members need papers at the same time.
Send them together - we settle the spelling of names at once, the courier comes only once and the overall cost is lower. That way it rarely happens that a surname turns out differently in one document than in another.
I have a foreign driving licence and want to exchange it in Georgia.
The agency requires a notarized translation of the licence, with the categories, the date of issue and the validity period reflected exactly. We keep the category codes in their original form and add an explanation. The translation is normally ready in one to two days.
I am on a run and cannot sign anything. Can you still do it?
Yes - your physical presence is not needed for a translation. You send the photos, we complete the work and hand the certified document to a family member or a person you name. For an apostille we need the original, which the courier will arrange.
