Translation of a Birth Certificate

People need translation of personal documents due to different reasons, but as a rule, translation of documents is required when traveling abroad. Purposes of the visit can differ, and for each of them a set of certain documents is required.

Translation of a birth certificate is often ordered when a person plans a trip abroad for a child under 14 years of age, as in this case his or her birth certificate is the primary identity document. Moreover, certified translation of a birth certificate is required:

  • when executing a statement of consent for temporary residence, residence permit, citizenship of another state;
  • when obtaining visa for entry a foreign state, if it’s required by the procedure;
  • when contracting a marriage abroad.

Of course, translation of a birth certificate doesn’t require a translator to have such high qualification as the translation of specific texts. Nevertheless, a translator is responsible for correctness of each letter in the translation. Apart from translating texts, the primary task of which is the correct conveying of the meaning, when translating personal documents, its format and exact matching to the original text are also very important.
