Translator applications

Applicants submit a NAATI practitioner number, credential type, language directions and certificate evidence. LodgeHQ administrators approve marketplace profiles before access to matching work. This approval is a platform control, not NAATI endorsement and not a promise that a credential will remain current indefinitely.

Customers can check a practitioner through the official NAATI Online Directory.

Separate service and clear boundaries

LodgeHQ Translations is a separate customer-facing service from LodgeHQ's migration-practice software. It is not NAATI, a government body, court, law firm, migration adviser or receiving authority. It does not decide visa, citizenship, court or licensing outcomes.

How we govern public information
