Easy to Identify
All registered interpreters carry an ID card that confirms their registration number and language(s) for which they are registered.
The ID card must be be shown by the interpreter when first arriving at their assignment.
The information provided on an interpreter's ID card will show the following:
- Photograph
- Name and Registration number
For security reasons the name is shown on the reverse. - Languages which an interpreter is registered for (interpreters must not imply that they are registered for any related or additional languages)
- Expiry date.
A specimen ID Card (new design) is shown above
ID cards are first supplied to interpreters upon successful acceptance of their listing on the National Register. Each year upon successful renewal, an interpreter will be provided with an updated ID card.
Please note that an interpreter must not be booked for a language they are not registered for.
