NAATI is a national standards body owned by the Commonwealth,
State and Territory Governments of Australia that sets and
maintains the standards of translation and interpreting at four
accreditation levels. NAATI accredits translators and interpreters
who are appropriately qualified.
NAATI accreditation is the only qualification officially
accepted for the profession of translation and interpreting in
Australia. All government Translation and Interpreting (T&I)
services require translators and interpreters to be NAATI
accredited.
NAATI provides a means by which employers of interpreters and
translators can make a judgment as to their level of ability.
Candidates from India aspiring to qualify as translators and/ or
interpreters, could apply to write their examination at their
nearest IDP Office, after completing and forwarding the application
form and fee to NAATI in Australia.
IDP’s exam unit is responsible only for receipt of examination
papers from NAATI, secure storage, contacting the candidate as soon
as the papers arrive, finalizing a date for the examination,
supervision of the exam and safe and prompt despatch of examination
material.
