National Accreditation Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI)

NAATI is the national standards and certifying authority for translators and interpreters in Australia. Our vision is for a connected community without language barriers.

NAATI is responsible for setting, maintaining and promoting high standards for the translating and interpreting profession, which we do through the Certification System. NAATI is the only organisation in Australia to issue professional credentials (or certification) to translators and interpreters.

NAATI’s Certification System is unique globally as it is the only universal, national system to certify practitioners in so many languages across various credential types.

We also:

  • support the community by assessing bilingual individuals through Credentialed Community Language testing, migration assessments and Community Language Aide testing, and
  • support the translating and interpreting sector through funding opportunities and engagement at relevant forums and conferences.
