A passport is one of the most frequently requested identity documents in immigration, legal, and civil paperwork. Our certified translation service guarantees precision, as even a minor error can lead to complications in your application process.
HM Passport Office requires that documents not in English or Welsh be accompanied by a certified translation.
For UK immigration applications, your passport translation must meet specific standards set by UKVI. This includes providing a certification statement confirming accuracy, the translator’s details, and ensuring the translation is independently verifiable.
