Ukrainian–Slovak translator online

Select the direction in the switch above the input field, paste the text, and click "Translate" — the result can be copied immediately with the button. Registration is not required, and no fee is charged.

Translation in KOMPAS is free, but has technical limitations. You can send up to 1,500 characters at a time. The external MyMemory service also indicates a daily limit for anonymous use — 5,000 characters, and this quota is shared, not personal for each visitor.

Therefore, the practical conclusion is: if the translation did not work, the most likely reason is the shared quota, not an error in your text. Try later or break the text into parts of several paragraphs: this way there is less chance of hitting the limit and it is easier to proofread the result.

These are different specialists, and confusion here costs a visit. A prekladateľ translates documents — certificates, diplomas, contracts. A tlmočník translates live conversation: at an appointment at an institution, with a doctor, in court, during a signing at a notary.

A prekladateľ translates documents, a tlmočník — spoken conversation. If the institution requires official status, choose a specialist from the registry.

If the institution said "come with a translator," clarify what is meant: going to a meeting with a person who does written translations is a typical mistake. You need to look for both in the same place — the Register of Translators of the Ministry of Justice of Slovakia: https://www.justice.gov.sk/registre/prekladatelia/. In the register, open the PREKLADATELIA list, select the language, and if necessary, the country and district. What official status means is in the glossary.

No. Machine translation is a tool to understand the content: a letter from the post office, an announcement, a contract before meeting a lawyer. It has no legal force, and no institution will accept it instead of an official translation.

What kind of translation is needed depends on the procedure and the specific institution. For certificates, diplomas, references, contracts, and court documents, ask in advance: in what language to submit, whether a translation from a registered specialist is required, whether certification is required, and whether copies are accepted.

Separately about privacy: do not enter personal data, document numbers, and medical details here. The text goes to an external translation service, so treat it as public.

There is a contractual basis between Slovakia and Ukraine, according to which documents that comply with Article 11 of the treaty are used without additional certification. However, the Ministry of Justice of Slovakia warns: this exemption cannot be automatically extended to every out-of-court procedure. Before ordering a translation, ask the institution in writing whether it will accept your document without an apostille and what form of translation it requires.

The action that saves money: first, ask the institution that will accept the document in writing, and only then order the translation. If it turns out that additional certification or another form of translation is required, you will have to redo everything — and no one will compensate you for paying for normalized pages a second time.

A private client can agree on the price with the translator. If the price is not agreed upon, the rate for translation between Slovak and Ukrainian is €21.58 per each commenced normalized page (1,800 characters), without possible surcharges, expenses, and VAT. In two open price lists checked on 07/24/2026, the base price was €20–€27 per normalized page. This is a guideline, not a market average: ask for a full written calculation.

Three things worth clarifying before ordering. First: how many normalized pages your document will result in — characters are counted, not sheets, so a short certificate with stamps may turn out to be more expensive than it seems. Second: whether the price includes certification and binding to the original or copy. Third: whether there is a surcharge for urgency and how long the usual term is.

Ask for a full written calculation before starting work — then the final amount will not be a surprise.

For everyday phrases — quite a lot: greetings, making a doctor's appointment, questions in a store. The closer the text is to spoken language, the fewer errors.

Where it regularly makes mistakes: legal formulations, medical diagnoses, names of institutions and documents, as well as case endings in proper names. The danger is that an incorrect translation looks just as confident as a correct one — you won't see that something is wrong from the result itself.

Practical rule: if a decision depends on accuracy — status, money, treatment, signing a contract — check the text with a person who knows Slovak, or order an official translation. For daily communication, start with a phrasebook on the topics above, and for systematic language learning, there is a guide "Language".
