Who I am

I am Carla Guanais. Every document I sign carries legal force in Italy: I am listed in the register of technical and specialised professionals of the Tribunale di Roma and in the ruolo periti ed esperti of the Italian Chamber of Commerce.

I work with individuals, law firms, notaries and companies that need sworn translations — particularly in the Portuguese ⇄ Italian pair, the most requested and at the same time the one with the fewest genuinely qualified professionals in Rome.

Why a sworn translation is not just any translation

Not every translation carries legal weight in Italy. A sworn translation (traduzione giurata or asseverata) only exists when a qualified translator takes legal responsibility for the text and swears it before the competent authority.

Tribunale di Roma — listed in the register of technical and specialised professionals.
Italian Chamber of Commerce — officially registered in the ruolo periti ed esperti.
15 years living in Italy, inside the system that issues and receives these documents.
Over 50,000 documents translated in Portuguese, Italian, English and Spanish.

In practice: the document I sign enters the Italian system directly, with no need for additional consular validation.
