National Accreditation for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI)

The National Accredited Authority for Translators and Interpreters (NAATI) is an Australian professional organization that sets and maintains the standard of translating & interpreting profession in Australia.

It is the only organization permitted by all Australian states to issue certifications for translators and interpreters who want to offer their services professionally in Australia. It aims to strengthen the involvement and participation of Australian employees by addressing different communication needs and meeting the expectations.

The NAATI includes many Indian Languages for the Credentialed Community Language (CCL) test including Hindi, Urdu, Punjabi and Telugu. In point of fact, Telugu language is recently added in the NAATI language list. The major benefit of taking the NAATI/ CCL is that you can receive 5 extra points for Australia Permanent Residency.

Role of NAATI Certification in Immigration

NAATI accreditation is also important for the purpose of immigration. 

Following are the points considered for the same:

  • NAATI accreditation may be used for points related migration visas. These points are known as CCL or Credentialed Community Language Points.
  • If an employer decides to migrate to the country and get employed by the state or territory government, they will be able to receive accreditation from it as a way of assessing their skillset.

NAATI is a national authority which certifies translators and interpreters so they can work in Australia. It takes about 12 months to receive the NAATI certification. Preparations for this timeline include preparing for the test, receiving the results, obtaining a certificate, and finally claiming the 5 points.

The additional 5 points are crucial for the Australia PR points. These PR points are calculated on the basis of age, education, work experience, language ability etc. factors of your profile.
