In commercial transactions to be made on behalf of a company abroad, the translation of the tax certificate is considered one of the most important documents that need to be translated. Since the tax certificate shows the financial identity of the company, all details must be translated correctly, even if they are only one letter, just like an identity card or passport. Since documents such as files, contracts, invoices, etc., are prepared based on the information on the company's tax certificate, any inaccuracies in the translation of the tax certificate can negatively affect the entire transaction. Alle Translation Office starts by translating the tax certificate first when translating documents for companies, and after completing the checks of the tax certificate translation, they base the translation control of other documents on the tax certificate, ensuring that the company's information is verified across all documents.
What is a Tax Certificate?
It is an official document determined in form, content, and details by institutions affiliated with the Ministry of Finance, stating the amount of tax receivables calculated based on the base and rates specified in the laws. The Tax Certificate, prepared annually by the Revenue Administration (GİB) for companies, is one of the mandatory documents that every individual and institution that is a tax payer must have. Commercial profit holders, agricultural profit holders who conduct activities in accordance with certain legal conditions, freelancers, and partners in businesses such as general partnerships, collective, and limited partnerships; also corporations that are subject to corporate tax, limited companies, and shareholding partnerships are required to possess a tax certificate.
