Firms That Ask for Your Money Papers in English
Any UK business that handles large amounts of money must follow anti-money laundering rules. Many of them will ask to see your papers in English. As a legal document translation UK specialist, we know what each of them looks for.
Forward us the request from your solicitor, bank or adviser, and we will make sure every item on their list is covered.
Large Sum From Abroad? When AML Papers Need Translating
A firm usually asks for anti-money laundering paperwork when the money is large, comes from another country, or is used for a big purchase. These are the times our clients most often need their papers translated.
Buying a Home or Commercial Property
Your solicitor must check your deposit and purchase money. If you are buying a home, see our certified translation for buying a house.
Buying a Business or Company Shares
Solicitors and accountants need to see how you are paying for the business before the deal can close.
Investing With a UK Wealth Manager
Advisers must understand how you built your wealth before they can invest it for you.
Paying a Large Sum Into a UK Bank
Big transfers from abroad often trigger a bank check, and the bank may ask for papers in English.
Receiving a Gift From Family Abroad
The person giving the money may need to show where it came from too, not just you.
Bringing an Inheritance Into the UK
Wills, death certificates and estate papers show that the money was left to you.
Moving Money From a Sale Abroad
Sold a home, land or business overseas? The sale papers prove where the money started.
Earning Income Overseas
Payslips, tax returns and company accounts show how you earned the money over time.
Cashing Out Crypto or Investments
Statements from foreign exchanges or brokers show how gains were made and moved.
Proof of Funds Papers We Translate, Line by Line
A strong trail usually needs more than one kind of document. Our funds evidence translation covers every paper that links your money back to where it started.
Bank Statements
Every page and every payment, including the short notes next to each transfer.
Money Transfer Receipts
SWIFT confirmations and transfer slips showing money leaving one account and arriving in another.
Savings & Deposit Certificates
Fixed deposits and savings accounts showing how long the money was held.
Sale Deeds & Contracts
Proof of a home or business you sold. Our sale agreement translation shows the price and the date.
Wills & Inheritance Papers
Wills, probate papers and estate letters showing money left to you.
Gift Letters & Donor ID
A signed letter from the person giving the money, plus their ID and bank papers.
Payslips & Tax Returns
Proof of salary and tax paid, showing how your savings grew.
Company Accounts & Dividends
Business accounts and dividend records for company owners and shareholders.
Investment & Crypto Statements
Broker, fund and exchange statements showing gains and withdrawals.
Missing Details That Delay Your Source of Funds Check
A careful AML translation matters, but firms mostly ask for more when part of the money story is missing or unclear. These are the gaps that cause the most back and forth.
Months Missing From Statements
A gap of even one month can break the trail and lead to a request for more.
Transfer Notes Left in the Original
The short note next to each payment often explains it, so it must be translated too.
Different Names on Accounts
Joint accounts or a maiden name can confuse a check if not shown clearly.
Currency Symbols Dropped
Every amount needs its currency, or the firm cannot tell how much money moved.
Donor Papers Not Included
For a gift, the giver's bank papers often matter as much as your own.
No Signed Translator Statement
Without it, the firm may not accept the translation as official.
What a Slow Check Can Cost
Until your funds are cleared, a purchase cannot complete and an investment cannot start. A delay of a few days can mean a missed deadline or a lost deal.
