About Us
Since its inception ten years ago, Australian Translation Services has become one of Australia’s most coveted translation providers. Ankit Sureka founded it with a dream to connect the world!
Australian Translation Services is a professional multilingual Language Service Provider. From document and certificate translation to industry-specific legal and medical translation, we offer the best and most affordable translation services tailored to each client’s unique requirements. Collaborating with government departments and not-for-profits, we have bridged the language gap and provided interpreting services while maintaining the confidentiality of our clients.
It all began with a dream…
When he first arrived in a distant land to pursue his studies in computer engineering, Ankit Sureka was overwhelmed—not just by the new environment, but by the language that felt like an impenetrable wall. Ankit recalls standing in a crowded café, trying to order a simple meal, only to be met with puzzled looks and confused words he couldn’t understand. That moment of isolation was eye-opening.
It was then that Ankit realised that language wasn’t just a tool for communication—it was the key to discovering culture, building friendships, and feeling truly included. He dedicated himself to learning the language, stumbling through conversations, making mistakes, but gradually breaking down those walls.
That journey transformed him. Despite being far from his mother tongue and home, he began to feel connected, welcomed, and part of a diverse world—all thanks to the power of language. Today, speaking five languages isn’t just a skill for him; it’s the bridge that makes him feel at home wherever he goes.
This experience shaped his worldview. He came to understand that when people truly understand one another, they don’t just communicate—they connect. This realisation planted the seed for a bigger dream: building something that could help others feel the same sense of belonging, especially in a new land.
By hearing the stories and struggles of migrants firsthand, he came to deeply understand the complexities of the Australian immigration system—the overwhelming paperwork, the confusing procedures, certifications, and the many obstacles that can make starting over feel daunting. But alongside these challenges, he also discovered the heart of Australia’s inclusive culture—a community that genuinely embraces diversity and offers a sense of belonging to those far from home. Moved by the loneliness caused by language barriers and the courage it takes to explore a new life, he was inspired to create a business that would help ease these burdens and make the journey feel a little less isolating.
During those moments of struggle and longing, the vision for AustralianTranslationServices took shape.
What if this journey could be easier for others?
What if no one had to feel voiceless or lost in translation?
Driven by compassion and determination, he founded Australian Translation Services with a mission to be the bridge that connects people to opportunities, communities, and each other with the help of technology.
Based in Australia, the company now provides 100% online NAATI-certified translation services to individuals migrating to the country, ensuring every document is accurate, trusted, and processed with care. But their work extends beyond paperwork. They also offer professional interpretation services to support meaningful communication in settings that matter most—from healthcare and education to community and government engagements.
Australian Translation Services proudly partners with government bodies and organisations to reach Aboriginal and linguistically diverse communities, helping ensure that vital messages are not just delivered, but truly understood.
Today, every document translated and every conversation interpreted is rooted in a story—his story, and the stories of countless others exploring life in a new country. It’s a story of empathy, resilience, and the belief that language should never be a barrier to dignity and belonging.
Because at the heart of what they do lies a simple truth:
Everyone deserves to be heard and understood.
