Buying a property in another country while dealing with Russian ownership records, or declaring Russian real estate as part of a wealth or tax review, usually means someone on the other end needs to actually read the Russian paperwork: the EGRN extract showing who owns the property and whether it carries a mortgage or other encumbrance, the purchase contract describing the deal, and the valuation report setting out its assessed worth. We translate these documents accurately and quickly, preserving figures, cadastral numbers, and property descriptions exactly as they appear in the original.
What to Send Us
- A current EGRN extract (выписка из ЕГРН) or the older свидетельство о праве собственности, whichever you have
- The purchase and sale contract (договор купли-продажи), if the case involves a specific transaction
- A valuation or appraisal report, if one has been prepared and the receiving party needs it
- The cadastral passport or technical plan, if available and relevant to your case
- The purpose of the translation (mortgage application, wealth declaration, cross-border purchase support), so we match the terminology to what the reader expects
- Your deadline, especially if the documents are tied to a mortgage approval window or a closing date

Property documents live and die on precision — a mistranslated cadastral number or a misread square-meter figure can hold up a mortgage application or an appraisal review. We keep all numbers, dates, and identifiers exactly as they appear in the Russian original, and where a document contains a table (a valuation breakdown, for example), we reproduce that table structure in the translation rather than converting it to plain text.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will a foreign notary or mortgage lender accept a non-certified translation of a Russian property document?
Many will, for the purpose of understanding the document during a purchase review, a valuation check, or a wealth declaration, since this is usually an internal assessment rather than a formal court or registry filing. If your specific notary or lender has told you they require a certified or sworn translation, ask them exactly what that means, since this professional translation is built for business use, not certification.
Do you translate both the EGRN extract and the older свидетельство о праве собственности?
Yes. Russia switched from issuing paper ownership certificates to EGRN extracts, but many properties still have older certificates on file, and some transactions require both. We translate whichever document you have, and both if your case needs it.
Can you translate a valuation report with tables and figures?
Yes. We reproduce the table structure from the original valuation report in the translation, rather than flattening it into plain paragraphs, so a reviewer can compare figures line by line against the source document.
How is this different from a notarized translation for a property purchase?
A notarized translation carries a Russian notary's certification of the translator's signature, which some registries and legal processes require by law, particularly if the document needs to be formally filed. This professional translation is meant for review, due diligence, and mortgage or wealth-declaration support that does not carry that formal requirement. Tell us who is receiving the translation and we will help you confirm which service fits.
Can you translate documents for a property that has a mortgage or other encumbrance registered against it?
Yes. We translate the EGRN extract exactly as issued, including any registered mortgage, lien, or other encumbrance shown on it, since that information is usually exactly what a foreign lender or lawyer needs to see.
How fast can I get a full property package translated?
Our full package, covering the title extract, purchase contract, and valuation report together, is typically delivered in 3 business days. Single documents such as the title extract alone are usually ready in 1 business day.
How do I pay from the US or EU — is that allowed?
Your card payment is processed by Paddle, a UK/US merchant of record, in EUR or USD — you never send money to a Russian bank account, and you receive a standard EU/US-compliant receipt. Translation and document services of this kind are not restricted for private individuals. Clients in Russia pay separately by SBP or a ruble invoice.
