Certified Turkish Patent Translation — EN / DE / FR to TR
Sworn patent translation accepted by TÜRKPATENT — EP validation texts, PCT descriptions, claims and office actions translated between Turkish, English, German, and French.
Why Does Accuracy in Patent Translation Matter?
In Turkish legal proceedings, the Turkish text is authoritative. A translation error in the claims can permanently narrow the scope of protection of your invention. At EU-PA, a three-stage quality control is applied: subject-matter expert translator + senior editor + European Patent Attorney approval.
Absolute deadlines of 3 months apply for EP validation translation and 30 months for PCT national phase translation. Our ERP/CRM system automatically tracks all deadlines.

Validate Your European Patent in Turkey
A patent granted by the EPO is not automatically valid in Turkey. For EP validation, the Turkish translation must be submitted to TÜRKPATENT within 3 months of EPO publication.
EU-PA's EP validation translation service applies a two-stage review process: subject-matter expert translator + European Patent Attorney approval.
Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions about patent translation services.
Why is patent translation different from regular translation?▾
Patent translation requires combined expertise in technical terminology, legal language, and industrial property law. Errors in claims can permanently narrow or invalidate patent protection.
What is the deadline for submitting a Turkish translation for EP validation?▾
The Turkish translation must be submitted to TÜRKPATENT within 3 months of the EPO grant publication date. This deadline is absolute — missing it permanently bars protection in Turkey.
Is machine translation acceptable for patent documents in Turkey?▾
No. TÜRKPATENT requires accurate human-quality translations. Machine-translated texts frequently contain errors in the claims that can invalidate the patent or significantly narrow its scope.
What language pairs does eu-pa cover for patent translation?▾
eu-pa provides certified patent translation into Turkish from English, German, French, and other languages. We also translate from Turkish into English and German for international filings.
Does eu-pa use CAT tools for patent translation?▾
Yes. We use SDL Trados Studio, Wordfast Pro, and memoQ to ensure terminology consistency across large patent documents and related technical texts.
