    Oversea property sale

    Taxpayer sold a property in oversea. All the sale document is in foreign language. The taxpayer is thinking to translator the documents to English by himself. Is it ok? And can he just translate the important part of the documents, such as the property address, sale date, sale price, expenses, etc, instead of the whole document?

    Or does the taxpayer have to hire a professional translator to translate the document to English?

    You don't necessarily need a professional.

    But you do need to be sure it is an accurate translation and that you have gotten all the important bits.
