Certified Language Translation Services in USA

Certified Document Translation

When you apply for a job or at a university overseas you may be faced with the requirement to submit a certified translation of your diploma. But don’t worry, obtaining a certified translation is not as difficult as you think.

A certified document translation is a translated document accompanied by a signed statement from the translator, or an affidavit signed in front of a Notary Public signifying that the translation is accurate and complete. It then becomes a legal record once a translation is certified. Depending on the country and situation, the notary public may or may not be needed. Certified translation work undergoes a thorough process to ensure that the translation is as accurate as of the original document before it could be verified. Therefore, in such cases, it is best to have your certified translation done by a trusted certified translation team – rather than an independent translator. This way the translation goes to 3 people and has a better chance to be correct.

When is it necessary to obtain a certified translation?

You may be required to have certified translations for many reasons. The most common ones include:

Legal Paperwork

Generally, certified translations are necessary for legal paperwork, such as documentation used in court hearings or trials, both civil (e.g., adoption, divorce) and criminal, including any evidence, financial files, complaints, legal summons, or trial transcript that is written in another language. As long as a document is required to be submitted to a statutory or government body, it’s likely that certified legal translations will be required.

Our ATA and Superior Court Certified legal document translation services are available for legal documents of all types, including:

  • Contractual Agreements
  • Witness Transcripts & Testimony

  • Complaint Letters or Statements

Certified document translations are required by the immigration bureau when you are applying for a permanent residency or becoming a US citizen-. In this case, all the required documents you need to submit that are written in a different language must be translated into English. These documents can include birth certificates, marriage certificates, driver’s licenses, etc. If you move or need a work permit for a foreign Country, that Country consulate or Embassy will also require these type of documents to be translated and certified.

The United States Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), for instance, requires that all documents not written in English should be translated and certified, including everything that appears on each page of the document (except for passports). The translation should be identical to the visual appearance of the original document, including the placement of stamps, seals, and signatures as well.

It is crucial to hire USCIS certified translation services that ensure your immigration documents comply with USCIS rules for how documents must look and read. Here at Translingua, we translate documents into English the way the USCIS expects them. Our immigration document translation services can help you translate:

  • Birth Certificates
  • Marriage Certificates

College and university applications also often require foreign candidates to present and submit certified translations of documents such as diplomas, transcripts, and recommendations. Depending on the school’s document policies, you may be required to submit your original grade report along with a certified translation. It’s always best to confirm what documents are needed before submitting them.
