Red Tape Translation

I've used Red Tape many times now for translations during official appointments in Berlin and always had the best professional service. Lucas in particular is very efficient, helpful and friendly. The team are always willing to accommodate, even with very short notice. This is a great resource for people in Berlin who don't speak German, very trustworthy and reliable.

I have had some horrible experiences at the Ausländerbehörde, even with all my paperwork!  So I am always nervous to go there. I asked Red Tape for help and they sent Liz G. And though my case worker ended up being friendly and spoke a bit of English, Liz helped me tremendously.  She was extremely calming, professional, not intimidated by the Ausländerbehörde but still very friendly and extremely knowledgeable! It was worth every euro spent and will definitely use Red Tape again!!

Outstanding service! They took care of an sworn document translation for a better price than any other service offered. What really impressed me was that they had promised it would be done quickly and it was done faster than expected. A+ service and skills, I'll definitely be returning for future business.

Was nervous to go to the Auslanderbehorde alone, my German is horrible. Also, that place is intimidating and not always as welcoming as an office for foreigner's should or could be. I decided to hire Red Tape as insurance to a (HOPEFULLY) experience and they (Liz G.!) delivered. Liz was extremely professional, friendly, knowledgeable and calming, which made the whole experience painless! Will definitely use Red Tape again and again. Worth every penny!

There was a genuine feeling that an enormous weight had been taken off my shoulders when I finished a consultation with Kathleen. As if there aren't enough things to think about when moving across the other side of the world? Stressing about visas and why you cant find the info (you think you need) on the government websites is not required! Kathleen gave me clarity, peace of mind and calmed the anxiety regarding the entire process. Highest recommendation!

I had an amazing experience hiring their service. Kathleen replied me super fast.

She is super organized, has a very efficient system with her colleagues. I needed to hire their service two times for appointment help, as I needed a German speaker to go with me at the Agentur für Arbeit and Martha was a great help, very kind and careful. Everything is documented by email and a very stressful moment became a peaceful problem solved!

I felt so happy to have this service available in Berlin and with very reliable people.

I will definitely hire them again if I need and recommend 100% to everyone who needs it!

I highly recommend Red Tape! All communications were fast and easy. I had a visa meeting at the usually scary ausländerbehörde, so had Nadine help me out. Nadine was very pleasant and professional, and made the whole process painless. Thanks Nadine + Redtape!!!

Red Tape Translation’s service is simply amazing! They were really kind from the beginning and helped so much with my Auslandebehorde appointment. Thanks a lot for everything.

Vitor S., Berlin, Germany

Red Tape translated my document with good quality within a short time, I needed it for my termin but I sent it late. However, they manage to finish the work and it helped me a lot for my termin. I recommend red tape to you guys.

I called Kathleen the evening before I needed a translator the next morning at 8am at the jobcentre and she was able to arrange for somebody to come. Great professional service and reasonably priced; I recommend them!

Michael M., Berlin, Germany

Red Tape translated two UK birth certificates and our UK marriage certificate in record time! I wasn’t in a rush, but the turnaround was very quick, communication with the team excellent and the certified copies very good value for money. I’d wholeheartedly recommend them, and will definitely contact them again should we need more help with any German bureaucracy.
