Translating the Language of Risk and Protection
An Insurance Policy (Sigorta Poliçesi) is a legally binding contract that defines the terms, conditions, and limits of financial protection. Whether it is a health insurance policy for a visa application, a maritime cargo policy for international trade, or a professional liability policy for a global corporation, the translation must be flawless.
In the insurance world, a single misinterpreted word in an “Exclusion” clause or a “Coverage Limit” can lead to the denial of a claim, resulting in massive financial loss or legal vulnerability. Translating these documents requires a deep understanding of Insurance Law, Actuarial Terminology, and Contractual Syntax.
As Aspendos Tercüme ve Danışmanlık Hizmetleri A.Ş., with over 15 years of experience and holding ISO 17100 and ISO 9001 certifications, we ensure your insurance documents provide the same level of protection in the target language as they do in the original.
Legal Accuracy and Technical Precision: Our Process
Insurance policies are dense legal instruments. Our process is designed to maintain the integrity of every clause:
Specialized Insurance & Legal Linguists: Your policy is handled by a Sworn Translator who specializes in the insurance sector. They understand the difference between “Occurrence-based” and “Claims-made” coverage and ensure that technical terms like “Deductible,” “Indemnity,” and “Reinsurance” are translated with absolute accuracy.
ISO 17100:2015 Quality Standards: Every insurance document undergoes a rigorous two-step verification:
Clause-by-Clause Audit: We ensure that the specific conditions, exclusions, and obligations of both the insurer and the insured are rendered without ambiguity.
Numerical Integrity: Meticulous cross-checking of coverage limits, premium amounts, policy numbers, and dates (Effective Date vs. Expiry Date).
Visual Layout Mirroring: We mirror the layout of the original policy, including the placement of schedules, tables of benefits, and official stamps. This allows insurance adjusters and legal teams to easily compare the translation with the original document.
Certified & Sworn Translation: We provide official sworn translations required by consulates (for travel insurance), foreign hospitals (for medical claims), and international courts.

Why Every Exclusion and Term Matters
In insurance, what is not covered is often as important as what is covered. We focus on:
Exclusion Clause Clarity: We ensure that the “Exclusions” (Muafiyetler/İstisnalar) are translated with total legal clarity to prevent any future disputes regarding what the policy does not protect.
Definitions Section: Policies contain a specific “Definitions” section where words are given a precise legal meaning. We ensure these definitions are carried over consistently throughout the entire translated document.
Endorsements and Riders: We accurately translate all “Zeyilname” (Endorsements) that modify the original policy, ensuring the current status of the insurance is perfectly understood.
