When Text Message Translation Is Required

Asylum Evidence: Threatening WhatsApp, Telegram, or SMS messages from persecutors — among the most persuasive forms of direct persecution evidence in modern asylum cases

VAWA (Violence Against Women Act) Cases: WhatsApp and SMS messages documenting abuse, threats, or coercive control from an abusive U.S. citizen or permanent resident spouse or parent

Immigration Court Evidence: Messages establishing relationships, timelines, corroborating testimony, or relevant facts

Civil & Family Law: Foreign-language messages in divorce proceedings, custody disputes, and personal injury or fraud cases

How Text Message Translation Works

Submit clear screenshots of the message thread. We translate every message in the thread — sender name/number, timestamp, and complete message content — formatted clearly for court submission. We note metadata visible in the screenshot (platform, date, read receipts) where relevant. Each screenshot page is $18 standard / $28 expedited.

Sample certified translations

Our translations follow the same format as your source document, however we do not attempt to replicate its appearance. All translations are produced on our USCIS translations stationery and include a signed and sealed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
