USCIS Certified Translation Services
Certified English translations of birth certificates, marriage records, diplomas, and every other document your immigration filing needs — certification page included, ready to submit.
What USCIS Actually Requires
Federal regulation (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)) is specific: any foreign-language document in an immigration filing must come with a complete English translation and a signed certification that the translator is competent and the translation is accurate. Miss either piece and the filing risks a Request for Evidence — weeks or months of delay.
It does not require notarization, a "sworn translator," or an agency seal — persistent myths that cost applicants money. What reviewers look for is completeness (every stamp, seal, and notation rendered) and a properly worded certification. That's exactly what we deliver with every order.
- Complete translation — stamps, seals, and notations included
- Signed USCIS-format certification page attached
- Names and dates rendered consistently across documents
- Qualified human translator in your language pair
- Unlimited revisions if a reviewer ever asks

USCIS Translation FAQ
The questions applicants and attorneys ask before ordering.
Does USCIS require notarized translations?
No. USCIS requires a certified translation — a complete English translation accompanied by the translator's signed statement of accuracy and competence (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)). Notarization is a separate step some other agencies or foreign consulates request; we can discuss it if your receiving office asks, but standard USCIS filings don't need it.
What does the certification page say?
It states that the translator is competent in both languages and that the translation is complete and accurate, and it carries the translator's name, signature, and date — the exact format USCIS reviewers expect to see attached.
Do you translate stamps, seals, and handwriting?
Yes — everything visible on the document. USCIS requires a complete translation, so official stamps, seals, marginal notes, and legible handwriting are all rendered, with unclear items marked appropriately.
How fast can I get my translation?
Standard turnaround is 24-72 hours for most personal documents, with delivery in as little as 24 hours available. Multi-document orders receive a confirmed timeline when you order.
Which languages do you translate from?
60+ languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, French, Arabic, Mandarin, Vietnamese, Korean, Russian, Amharic, and Tagalog. If your language isn't listed, ask — our network is broad.
Will my translation be accepted?
Our certified translations follow USCIS requirements and are routinely accepted by USCIS, embassies, universities, and courts. Every order includes unlimited revisions — in the rare event a reviewer requests a change, we handle it at no cost.
