I have recently been awarded sworn translator status (traductrice assermentee) from French to English in France. The court itself did not give guidelines on what a traduction assermentee should look like, can anyone point me towards some information? Is it up to the individual to supply themselves with a stamp?

Thank you for all your help and advice with this. ▲ Collapse

Do not know much about France but Mar 16, 2016

I would contact association(s) for professional (or sworn) tanslators in France for some guidelines or trainings on operating as sworn translator.
