How Do I Get a Translation Certified for Immigration, Naturalization or Citizenship Purposes?
Not all documents or vital records are submitted to the federal government (USCIS, formerly INS) for immigration purposes. The government suggests that submitted documents in a language other than English must have a complete and accurate translation into English. The translation must include a certification or sworn affidavit attesting that the translation is accurate and complete and it must also state the translator’s competence and credentials as a professional translator. What this means is that the translation must include a certification letter, on letterhead from an official translator, that is, a registered translation agency, and this letter must include specific wording in order to be accepted. More information can be found in the following page from the Government Publishing Office. We have submitted literally thousands of official translations for customers, including H-1B requests, I-130 applications, permanent residency, green cards, and all other types of visa petitions and processing, and they are always accepted; we guarantee it.
Who Can Translate Birth Certificates for USCIS?
The government has published rules as to who can translate birth certificates for USCIS. According to USCIS.gov, professional translation agencies must complete birth certificate translations from their customers using a mirror image translation, that is, mirror image formatting, the translator must provide a certification letter on letterhead from the translation agency. The certification must be signed by the translator. Each page must be stamped with the translator’s certification stamp; both the copy of the original document and a copy of the translation must be stamped. Additionally, the translator should not be related to the requesting party or the holder of the original vital record. If all of these regulations are followed, the translation will be accepted. In sum, in order to answer the question regarding who can translate birth certificates for USCIS, the answer is simple: any agency who understands and follows current federal rules and regulations.

What Are the Requirement for Translations to Be Accepted by the National Visa Center?
Requirements for birth certificate translation for the NVC (National Visa Center) are very similar to that of USCIS; however, all documents need to be submitted or uploaded electronically. The translation must be certified and then completed and returned in a scanned PDF file less than 2MB. Additionally, the NVC states that all pages must be centered and upright. Scans that are too large or include pages in horizontal format will not be accepted. We follow the NVC online and on social media in order to guarantee our translations are completed pursuant to NVC regulations.
How Much Does Birth Certificate Translation Cost When It Has Two Pages?
How much does birth certificate translation cost when the document has two pages? Translation of birth certificates with two pages still costs $49. We always charge $49, even for two and three page certificates issued by the Civil Registry offices in Spain or the two page hand-written certificates from Venezuela or Cuba. Birth certificates from Guatemala, Honduras and Colombia often have two pages, and they still cost $49. Some birth certificates have civil registry stamps or certifications from the ministry of foreign affairs on the back; the cost is still $49. This question is important as many translators advertise rates per page that will double if even one stamp is found on the back; their actual cost for birth certificate translation services are much higher when all fees are considered. We prefer to advertise all rates upfront and be fully transparent regarding pricing.
Are Hard-Copies or Physical Copies Mailed to My Home or Office?
After the certified translation has been completed, we always send the original, paper copies both by mail, that is, after we have sent the USCIS certified electronic version by email. We understand that most translators no longer send hard-copies or physical copies by mail since they are no longer required for USCIS, but we find that schools, local government offices and DMV offices usually require original, physical copies. We do not charge extra for standard shipping of hard-copies; others charge $10 to $20 to mail out physical copies of the translated documents. Standard shipping is always free, and we only charge a few extra for FedEx ($8 for two day shipping and $25 for overnight). Our overnight shipping rates with FedEx are only a few dollars more than translators like Universal Translation’s standard mailing rate of $22.
