Document: Property Deed. Include the approximate length, recipient, and deadline if you know them. We’ll review your request and may contact you by email about next steps.
What to know
Identify the conveyance document and the property record
An English deed and a current land-register extract can answer different ownership questions. Translate the record the recipient actually requests.
Reader and purpose
Party names, parcel references, and the granting language should stay traceable to the source.
Quote details
Ask whether an extract from the land register is required instead of or with the deed.

What to check before ordering
These notes help you describe your request. The receiving organization’s current instructions should guide the final requirements.
Name the document and the jurisdiction
Say whether the English source is a signed deed, recorded copy, title report, land-register extract, or another instrument. Give the issuing or recording jurisdiction and the date shown. A conveyance document describes a transaction; a current registry record may show later changes. Ask the Slovak recipient which version and related evidence it needs before commissioning the translation.
Keep legal descriptions traceable
Identify the grantor and grantee, property or parcel description, survey references, consideration wording, reservations, easements, signatures, acknowledgments, and recording details. Include attached maps, schedules, stamps, and reverse-side notes in the scope. A street address alone may not identify the legal parcel. Preserve source identifiers and boundaries as written rather than converting them into an assumed Slovak cadastral designation.
Separate translation from registering rights
Slovensko.sk explains that a transfer of Slovak immovable property involves an application to the Real Estate Cadastre and that the registration decision gives the registration its legal effect. Translating a foreign deed does not perform that filing or establish Slovak title. If a transaction or inheritance spans countries, ask the competent cadastral office or a qualified property lawyer which instrument, certified copy, authentication, and translation form it requires.
Check the language rule if the deed will be filed
Section 42(1) of Slovakia’s current Cadastral Act says a written contract, public document, or other document used to register a property right must be in Slovak, Czech, or an officially certified translation. This rule concerns a document submitted for cadastral registration, not every English deed translated for private review. Ask the cadastral department or property lawyer whether your foreign deed is the right filing instrument and which signed version, copy, attachments, and translation form it will accept. An ordinary reading translation does not itself register a right.
Give a safe scope summary
List the document title, jurisdiction, pages, maps and annexes, source quality, recipient, required output, and deadline. Do not post the full property address, parcel number, parties’ identities, or financial terms in the public quote form. Discuss a suitable file-review channel after the initial request.

Frequently asked
Common questions
Answers to common questions before you request a quote.
Does a translated deed prove current ownership?
It conveys the wording of the supplied deed. Ask the recipient whether it also needs a current registry extract or another proof.
Can a translation correct a parcel number?
No. A discrepancy in the source record must be resolved by the responsible issuer, registry, or legal professional.
Is an ordinary English-to-Slovak translation enough for a deed filed in the Slovak cadastre?
Section 42(1) requires a registrable document in Slovak, Czech, or an officially certified translation. Confirm with the cadastral department or a property lawyer whether your deed can be used for that filing and what source, translation, and attachments it requires. A private reading copy is a different use.
