Transcripta is a translation and language services team based in Valletta, Malta.

Enquiries go through the VisitMalta.co.uk form on this page.
Transcripta is a team of translators, proofreaders, project managers and language specialists working from an office in Valletta. Its clients range from European institutions and government bodies to international corporations, and the same team also handles personal documents for individuals who need an accurate, properly presented translation.
The business began in 2001, when it was chosen to translate official European Union documents. Since then it has widened its range to cover all major languages and many smaller ones. On VisitMalta.co.uk it is listed among the translation services in Malta, which is the best place to compare it with other providers on the island.
Translation, certified documents and proofreading
The core of the work is translation by qualified native speakers of the target language, for everything from widely read public material to technical papers aimed at specialists. Projects follow the ISO 17100 quality standard, and each one passes through a project manager, a translator and a proofreader or reviser before delivery.
Transcripta is also authorised to issue certified and apostilled translations. For a UK reader, this matters when a document has to be accepted by an official body, for example when moving to Malta and translating certificates for a residence application. Proofreading is offered separately for corporate publications, dissertations, academic papers, magazines and other writing.
Personal clients are welcome too. The team can translate research papers for journals and conferences, books intended for an international readership, and the many official papers that accompany a move abroad. Because every project is overseen by an expert project manager, large multilingual jobs with several languages and files can be coordinated in one place rather than split between suppliers, which helps keep terminology consistent from the first file to the last.
Localisation, transcription and interpreting
Localisation goes beyond word-for-word translation. The team reviews websites, software, brand guidelines, training material and marketing copy so that the tone, idioms and even the imagery suit each new market. Transcription turns video and audio recordings, such as interviews, speeches, seminars and meeting minutes, into text that can be searched, shared and translated.
Native interpreters are available for business meetings, conferences and private functions. Further services include dubbing and subtitling, transcreation for multilingual marketing campaigns, and cultural mediation, including tailored language and integration courses for people settling into a new community.
Sectors served
Transcripta lists specialist teams for finance, legal, iGaming, IT and blockchain, pharmaceutical, technical, marketing, education and EU and public sector work. Banks, accountancy and audit firms and fintech companies use it for financial documents, which suits the island's financial services sector, while the iGaming industry in Malta relies on it for multilingual content.
Legal translation covers contracts and court documents in commercial, criminal, international and civil law. Family affairs work includes papers on adoption, estate succession, marriage, civil partnership and divorce. Anyone setting up a company will often need translated paperwork alongside advice from a local firm such as CLA Malta, and sorting out Malta tax for UK nationals can involve the same kind of documents.
Finding Transcripta and getting started
The office is in Valletta, the capital, which is easy to reach on foot once you are inside the walls. If you are visiting, the Valletta guide explains the layout, and you can find a base in one of the hotels in Valletta. Nearby professional help is also listed in the directory, for example Advocates Primei for legal matters and ACC Malta Immigration Advisors for residence questions.
