What's Typically Needed
Getting married in the US commonly requires proof you're legally free to marry, which can include a birth certificate (proof of age), a certificate of no impediment, or — if you were previously married — a divorce or death certificate for a former spouse. If you're bringing a fiancé(e) into the US on a K-1 visa, USCIS may also require these documents to confirm marital status. Any of these in a foreign language need to be translated.
What We Know From Experience
We translate these documents regularly, so every translation comes with a signed Certificate of Accuracy — the format USCIS and most county clerks require. Exact requirements vary by state and county (and by USCIS for K-1 fiancé(e) cases), so we recommend confirming your specific checklist with your county clerk's office or USCIS before your appointment.
