USCIS- and UKVI-ready certified translations of the civil documents your visa, green card or citizenship application depends on.

Translation built around immigration rules

Immigration applications live and die on documentation, and almost every immigration authority requires foreign-language documents to be submitted with a certified English translation. In the United States, USCIS asks for a complete translation plus a signed statement confirming the translator’s competence and the accuracy of the work. In the United Kingdom, UKVI expects certified translations carrying the translator’s details and date. We produce translations to both standards and confirm the right one before we start.

What sets immigration work apart is completeness. Officers compare the translation against the original, so every element has to be there, including stamps, seals, signatures and handwritten notes. We translate the whole document, not just the body text, which is exactly what a certified translation for immigration should include.

When you need it

You will need certified immigration translations for family-based petitions, fiance(e) and spouse visas, green card and permanent residence applications, naturalisation and citizenship, student and work visas, and asylum cases. Any civil document issued in another language, and submitted as evidence, falls under the requirement. When a consulate or destination country also asks for authentication, our apostille and legalization service runs alongside the translation.

Documents we translate for immigration

• Birth, marriage, divorce and death certificates
• Police clearance and background-check certificates
• Passports, national IDs and family registers
• Academic diplomas, transcripts and qualification certificates
• Bank statements, tax records and employment letters
• Medical and vaccination records

We cover all the languages we translate, with translators who understand how civil documents are structured in their country of origin, so a registry extract or a family book is rendered correctly, not just literally.

Turnaround: Individual documents such as a birth or marriage certificate are usually ready within 1 to 2 business days. Full family sets are delivered together on a schedule that fits your filing deadline, and expedited service is available when a window is tight.

Consistent, complete and on deadline

Inconsistent name spellings or a missing seal can trigger a Request for Evidence and set your case back weeks. We keep names, dates and places uniform across every document in your application and review each file before it is certified. For sworn or notarized requirements in some jurisdictions, our notarized and sworn translation service completes the package.
