If you’ve been told your document needs a certified translation before it can be accepted by USCIS or the Secretary of State, you’re not alone.
Many clients arrive at the Secretary of State or begin an immigration process only to discover that their birth certificate, marriage certificate, or legal document must first be professionally translated.
At Seal of Approval Mobile Notary & Apostille Services, we provide certified Spanish translations in Sacramento with fast turnaround — often completed in less than 24 hours.
What Is a Certified Translation?
A certified translation includes:
- A complete and accurate translation of the original document
- A signed certification statement verifying accuracy
- Compliance with USCIS and government requirements
Certified translations are commonly required for:
- Birth certificates
- Marriage certificates
- Divorce decrees
- Death certificates
- Court documents
- Power of Attorney documents
- Immigration paperwork
If your document is not translated correctly, it may be rejected — causing delays in your immigration or apostille process.
