Certified Translation of Apostilled Documents for USCIS & Legal Use

What Is an Apostille — And Why You Still Need a Translation

An apostille authenticates a document’s signature or seal under the Hague Convention — it does not translate it. If your apostilled document is in a foreign language, USCIS, U.S. courts, and government agencies still require a certified English translation.

We translate the full document, apostille attachment included.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does an apostille mean I don't need a certified translation?

No. An apostille certifies authenticity, not language. A Spanish-language document with an apostille is still in Spanish. You still need a certified English translation for USCIS and U.S. legal proceedings.

Apostille first, then translate. The translation service should receive the complete apostilled document so the apostille text is included in the certified translation.

No. USCIS does not require apostilles on foreign documents submitted with immigration applications. A certified translation alone is sufficient for USCIS purposes. Apostilles are more commonly required by foreign governments and courts.

Yes. The apostille attachment itself (which is issued by the foreign competent authority) is included in our translation if it is in a foreign language.
