Where It's Accepted
Accepted by the Institutions That Matter
A certified translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy from the translator, confirming the translation is complete and faithful to the original. This is the standard required by USCIS and most US institutions — no court appointment or special seal required, just a qualified, accountable translator standing behind the work. If an institution specifically requires notarization on top of certification, we handle that too.
USCIS & Immigration
Birth certificates, marriage certificates, and supporting documents for green cards, visas, and naturalization applications.
Courts
Certified translations of court decisions, legal filings, and evidentiary documents.
Universities & Credential Evaluators
Diplomas and transcripts translated and certified for academic evaluation and enrollment.
DMV & State Agencies
Foreign driver's licenses and state-required documents translated to meet state agency requirements.
Employers & HR Departments
Employment records and supporting documents for hiring and verification purposes.
Notaries (on request)
When an institution requires notarization in addition to certification, we coordinate that as part of the same order — no separate errand required.
Banks & Financial Institutions
Financial statements and account documentation translated to meet compliance requirements.
Foreign Consulates & Embassies
Documents prepared for use abroad, with country-specific requirements factored in from the start.

Certified vs Standard
Certified Translation or Standard Translation — Which Do You Need ?
What "Certified" Means
A certified translation comes with a signed Certificate of Accuracy from the translator, stating that the translation is a complete and accurate rendering of the original document. This is what most US institutions — including USCIS — require for official submissions.
Why It's Required
Standard translations are accurate and professional, but they carry no formal attestation. For documents submitted to government agencies, courts, or educational institutions, certification is what makes a translation officially acceptable.
The Practical Difference
If you're translating a contract, a manual, or marketing content, a standard translation is the right (and more cost-effective) choice. If your document is going to an official institution — immigration, a court, a school — you need certification.

Certificate of Accuracy

Why Choose Us
6 Reasons People Choose Us Over an Independent Certified Translator
Qualified certified translators, fast turnaround, competitive pricing, and support through notarization and legalization when you need it.
Availability
A full team — translators, proofreaders, and project managers — reachable by phone, chat, and email, so you're never waiting on one person's schedule.
Turnaround
No court calendar to work around. We process every request as it comes in, with expedited options available for urgent deadlines.
Quality
Every certified translation is proofread by a second, independent translator before delivery — a critical safeguard, since a meaningful share of certified translations done without this second check contain errors.

Technology
Real-time order tracking, secure online payment, and instant notifications, so you always know exactly where your document stands.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a certified translation?
A certified translation is a complete and accurate translation delivered with a signed Certificate of Accuracy from the translator. It's the standard required by USCIS, courts, universities, and most US government agencies — no court appointment or special seal required.
Is a certified translation valid outside the US?
It depends on the destination country and the institution requesting it. Some countries and organizations require an additional step — such as notarization or an apostille — on top of certification. We recommend confirming the exact requirement with the requesting institution, and we're happy to guide you through the process. See our international network on our /international page.
Do I need notarization?
It depends on which institution is requesting the document. Notarization is a separate step from certification — some agencies require it, most (including USCIS) do not. If your document needs it, we coordinate notarization as part of your order.
How long does a certified translation take?
Most certified translations are delivered within 1 business day, with rush delivery as fast as same-day available for urgent requests.
