Interpreting in Hokkaido
On-site, remote and telephone interpreters across Japan. Available throughout Hokkaido without you leaving Sapporo or anywhere else in the prefecture.
We supply interpreters for the situations where getting it wrong is expensive: immigration and city hall appointments, notary offices, hospital consultations, police and court matters, factory audits, negotiations and conferences. Tell us the setting, the language pair and the date, and we will confirm an interpreter with the right subject-matter background and brief them on your documents in advance.
Japan's northern island, with a large agricultural and tourism workforce and growing numbers of Vietnamese, Indonesian and Filipino residents on specified skilled worker status.
We work with clients in Sapporo, Asahikawa, Hakodate, Obihiro, Kushiro and Tomakomai, and everywhere else in the prefecture.

How interpreting works from Hokkaido
Apostilles are issued only by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. For documents from Hokkaido we normally use the Tokyo (Kasumigaseki) counter, and postal applications are accepted from anywhere in Japan. Where a document has to be notarised first, the notary's signature is certified by 札幌法務局, the Legal Affairs Bureau with jurisdiction over Hokkaido.
You send scans for the quote, post or courier the originals if they are needed, and we return everything together once the last stamp is on the file.
