The most common reasons people contact us for personal document translation are USCIS immigration applications, employment background checks, school enrollment for children, and bank or financial account requirements. In each of these cases, the document needs to be accurate, complete, and certified in the format the receiving institution expects.
Personal documents include birth certificates, marriage and divorce certificates, death certificates, school diplomas and academic transcripts, national ID cards, passports, baptism records, adoption documents, and police clearance certificates. If you have a foreign document that needs to be understood and accepted in the US, this is the service you need.
USCIS requires that any foreign-language document submitted with an immigration petition be accompanied by a complete English translation. The translation must include a certification from the translator stating they are competent in both languages and that the translation is accurate and complete. Our certified translations meet all 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) requirements and have been accepted by USCIS across hundreds of applications.
Send us a clear scan or photo of the original document. Poor quality scans may slow us down. If the document is handwritten, we do our best to transcribe legible text and note any sections that are genuinely unclear. We translate everything visible on the document including stamps, seals descriptions, and signature lines.
We deliver translated documents as PDF files with the certificate of accuracy attached. The layout mirrors the original document structure where possible. USCIS submissions, employer requests, and school applications all have slightly different formatting expectations, and we tailor the delivery to the intended use you specify when you submit.
The majority of our personal document work is Spanish to English, which reflects the communities we serve in South and Central Texas. We also handle Portuguese, Vietnamese, Arabic, Chinese, Korean, Tagalog, Hindi, and 190 other languages through our vetted translator network.
Standard is 1-2 business days for a single document. Starter packages covering 1-3 documents turn around in 3-5 days. Rush 24-hour delivery is available as an add-on.
