The service
Which certificate do you need translated?
A birth certificate, a family-status certificate and a civil-status record may concern the same person but are different documents. Use the names and document list supplied by the receiving organisation.
The office translates personal and administrative documents after reviewing the source and intended use. The quote covers the particular document or set of documents you send.
Family-status certificate
If your request includes several certificates for the same file, submit them together so the complete scope of the translation can be reviewed.
Civil-status records and administrative documents
State the document type and where it will be used. The office clarifies translation requirements and supporting elements during the initial review.
Before sending your certificate
A complete, clear copy allows the office to assess the actual scope of the work.
The complete document
Check whether there is information on the reverse or on additional pages. Include it if it forms part of the document to be translated.
Receiving organisation
Keep the receiving organisation’s instructions. Email the office about any specific requirements or questions.
Language and timing
Choose the source and target languages in the portal. Tell the office about any deadline so the delivery time can be confirmed.
