Questions About Certified Translation in California

Does USCIS Accept Certified Translations Without Notarization?
Yes. USCIS requires a signed certification statement from the translator, not notarization. Some California county clerks and consular processes ask for notarization on top of certification, so check with the receiving agency if you are unsure.
Can You Translate Documents for California Courts?
Yes. We translate affidavits, court filings, depositions and foreign court orders for law firms and individual clients in California. We handle both certification and notarization when a filing requires them.
Can You Translate Less Common Languages?
Yes. We also work in less common language pairs, including Armenian, Persian, Punjabi, Khmer and Lao.
How Long Does It Take?
It depends on the length and complexity of the document. Send yours and we will confirm the timing in the quote.
