Native Speaker Review
Every Indonesian document passes through two pairs of eyes. First translator converts the text. Second person checks for tone, meaning, and proper flow. This double step catches small errors before you submit.
Clean Format Guarantee
We do not just change words. We arrange your translated document so it looks neat, matches the original layout, and includes all stamps and seals clearly visible for Singapore officers to verify.

Questions People Ask About Indonesian Translation
Here are answers to things customers usually want to know before sending their documents.
Can you translate my KTP (Kartu Tanda Penduduk) for MOM, ICA, or bank account opening in Singapore?
Yes, KTP is one of the most common Indonesian documents we translate every week. We cover NIK number, full name, place and date of birth, religion, marital status, and address line in clean English. Singapore agencies and local banks accept our KTP translations without rework.
Does your team translate KK (Kartu Keluarga) and keep the full family table layout intact?
Yes, your Kartu Keluarga is translated row by row, keeping father, mother, and every dependent in the same order as the original. The household head row stays at the top. ICA and embassies need this full structure to verify family links — we never collapse it into a paragraph.
Will my Akta Lahir, Akta Nikah, or Akta Cerai be translated with the correct civil registry wording Indonesia uses?
Yes, civil registry vocabulary used by Catatan Sipil offices differs from everyday Bahasa Indonesia. Our translators use the right legal terms for Akta Kelahiran (birth), Akta Perkawinan or Nikah (marriage), and Akta Cerai (divorce). This is important when documents go back to Indonesian courts later.
Can your translator handle Indonesian Islamic marriage records issued by KUA (Kantor Urusan Agama)?
Yes, KUA-issued Buku Nikah and surat nikah documents are handled by translators familiar with Islamic family law in Indonesia. Religious terms stay in their proper Arabic-Indonesian form. We do not turn KUA terms into general Bahasa Melayu since the meaning is slightly different.
Do you translate Indonesian university transcripts and explain the IPK (Indeks Prestasi Kumulatif) clearly?
Yes, Indonesian transcripts are translated with each subject name, credit hours (SKS), and grade preserved. The IPK stays as printed, and a conversion note to the international 4.0 scale is added if the receiving institution needs it. NUS, NTU, and SMU admissions teams accept our format.
Will my Indonesian SKCK (police clearance) translation match the format Singapore MOM or ICA expects?
Yes, SKCK from POLRI is one of our high-volume documents. We translate the heading, registration number, validity period, and "no criminal record" certification line exactly. The translation is dated and certified so MOM and ICA officers accept it on first submission.
My Indonesian document is in a regional language — Javanese, Sundanese, or Balinese — can you still help?
Yes, regional Indonesian languages including Javanese (Aksara Jawa or Latin), Sundanese, Balinese, Minangkabau, and Batak are handled by translators from those regions. Bahasa daerah documents are common for old land titles and family papers. Send a clear photo and we assign the right specialist.
Can you translate Akta Pendirian PT and other company registration documents from Indonesia?
Yes, company set-up documents including Akta Pendirian PT, SIUP, TDP, NPWP Badan, and NIB OSS are translated using proper Indonesian corporate-legal vocabulary. Many Singapore firms doing M&A or partnership work with Indonesian companies need this. Our format is accepted by ACRA and corporate lawyers here.
Will my Indonesian work permit and IMTA or RPTKA paperwork be translated correctly for cross-border HR use?
Yes, expat work permits issued by the Indonesian Ministry of Manpower (Kemnaker), including older IMTA and current RPTKA documents, are translated with the right HR and immigration terms. Many Singapore HR teams need these when staff move between offices. We keep the licence numbers and validity dates clearly visible.
Does your team know the difference between Bahasa Indonesia and Bahasa Malaysia for legal documents?
Yes, although both languages look similar, legal and administrative vocabulary is quite different. Many official terms diverge between the two systems even when the spelling looks the same. Our Indonesian and Malay translators are separate teams. We never mix them by mistake.
Will my NPWP (tax ID) translation be accepted by Singapore tax advisors or private banks?
Yes, NPWP translations are accepted by IRAS-linked tax agents, private banks, and accounting firms in Singapore. We translate the 15-digit number, registered name, address, and KPP (tax office) details. This is often needed for cross-border tax residency and CRS reporting.
Indonesian uses DD-MM-YYYY format with month names in Bahasa — will the date layout stay consistent in my translation?
Yes, all Indonesian dates are converted to a consistent DD Month YYYY format in English (for example, 15 Agustus 2024 becomes 15 August 2024). The original Indonesian date is also shown in brackets when the document is going back to an Indonesian-side office. No reader is left guessing.
