The translation of copyrighted material is a complex process. J.K. Rowling and her publishers have significant rights over the Harry Potter franchise, including the right to authorize translations and ensure they meet their quality standards. This makes official translations scarce. Fan translations exist, but they lack the legal protections and professional quality of official releases.
