Certified Translation of Personal Documents: For Emigrating Overseas & Foreigners Immigrating to India

Immigration, education, and legal purposes need certified translation—whether you are an Indian national traveling overseas or a foreign national traveling to India. Governments on either side are not simply seeking translated documents, but certified one, signed, attested, and delivered in a format dictated by embassies, colleges, and legal jurisdictions.

What is a Certified Translation?

A certified translation is a translation performed by a competent person or agency with a signed document verifying:

• The completeness and accuracy of the translation
• The date of seal and certification

This kind of translation is usually required by:

• Immigration authorities (e.g., USCIS, IRCC, UKVI)
• International universities
• Government ministries
• Legal institutions

Certified Translation for Indian Nationals Going Abroad 

If you are an Indian citizen seeking a visa, admission to a university, residency permit, or a foreign job, your original documents, usually in Hindi, Bengali, Tamil, or other Indian languages, have to be professionally translated into French, English, German, or some other official language of the destination nation

Typical situations necessitating certified translation:

Student, Work, Tourist, or PR Visa Applications

• University Admissions and Scholarships
• Immigration Procedures (i.e., Sponsoring Spouse/Child)
• Legal Disputes or Foreign Civil Registry
• Employment & Professional Certifications

Files usually translated:

• Birth and Marriage Certificates
• Academic Degrees and Transcripts
• Police Clearance Certificates (PCC)
• Bank Reports and Property Papers
• Medical Reports

Country-Specific Certification Guidance

• USA/Canada: May include certified copies along with affidavits
• Australia: Requires NAATI-certified translators
• Germany/France: May need sworn translators

✅ Always consult embassy or consular guidance before proceeding.

Certified Translation for Foreigners Coming to India

Foreigners who wish to have long-term visas, sanction for business, marriage license, studies, or employment in India are required to submit certified translations of everything that is not in Hindi or English.

Situation that requires certified translation

• OCI/PIO card applications
• Business and Employment Visas
• Enrolment in Indian universities
• Court or civil registration (e.g., marriage with Indian nationals)

Documents requiring translation are:

• Birth & Marriage Certificates
• Academic Records

India has no centralized government translation authority but will accept translation and certification from established agencies, ISO-certified organizations, or embassy-listed translators. Some use cases also require notarization or apostille (especially for submission to a court).
