Participant anonyme 940 comment traduire des doc aussi techniques, chat gpt ? Mais ils ne sont pas certifiés, comment vous mettez tout en page ? 😊 merci !
J’ai fait le visa à Jakarta à l’époque où c’était en physique. Ils ont accepté mes relevés BNP sans traduction. En vrai c’est suffisamment parlant je pense sans traduire.
I translate for those non French speakers who might be interested.
I did the DTV in Jakarta a couple of months ago when it was still a walk in embassy, and they took my bank slips in French. It seems pretty obvious and easy to understand with no translation.
Be careful however because what can be acceptable in one embassy may be rejected elsewhere.
