Certified Birth Certificate Translation

A birth certificate is one of the most frequently requested documents for UK visa applications, passport applications, marriage registrations and school enrolments. If your certificate is not in English, UK authorities require a certified translation.

We provide certified translations of birth certificates from over 200 languages into English, prepared to meet UK Home Office requirements: a full and accurate translation with a signed certification statement, the translator's credentials and the date of translation.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need to send my original birth certificate?

No. A clear photo or scan is sufficient. The certified translation will note that it was prepared from a copy you provided.

Will the Home Office accept your translation?

Yes. Our translations include everything UKVI guidance asks for: confirmation that it is an accurate translation of the original document, the date of the translation, and the translator's full name, signature and contact details.

My certificate has stamps and handwritten notes. Are they translated?

Yes. All stamps, seals, annotations and handwritten entries are translated or described, so the translated document is a complete representation of the original.
