Marriage Certificate Translation Services

Certified marriage certificate translation for USCIS, UKVI, spousal visas and name changes. Signed certificate of accuracy, 1–2 day turnaround.

A certified marriage certificate translation is a complete English translation of your marriage certificate plus a signed certificate of accuracy, the format USCIS, UKVI and other authorities require for spousal petitions, name changes and joint applications. Standard certificates are ready in 1–2 business days.

Marriage certificates sit at the heart of spousal and family immigration cases, so accuracy matters. A single inconsistent name or date against your other documents can slow an entire application.
