Ministry for Foreign Affairs - Translation Centre

The Translation Centre of the Ministry for Foreign Affairs was established in 1990 to translate Acts falling under the EEA Agreement as well as the Agreement itself. By the end of 1994 all documents pertaining to the Agreement and its additional protocols had been translated.

At present, the main task of the Centre is to translate Acts falling under the Decisions of the EEA Joint Committee and other texts related to the European Economic Area. The Unit has also specialised in translating international agreements and legal texts, formal letters and other such texts where standardised vocabulary is required.

A new and updated dictionary (icelandic/english and vice versa) is available at the following site:
