When Is Passport Translation Required?

USCIS & U.S. Immigration: USCIS officers can read passports issued in English, French, Spanish, and some other languages, but foreign-language passport entries — biographical data pages, visa stamps, entry/exit annotations, and remarks pages — may need to be translated as part of supporting documentation. Name discrepancies between a foreign-language passport and other translated documents are a common source of RFEs.

Foreign Visa & Residency Applications: Many countries require a certified translation of your passport into their official language for visa, work permit, and residency permit applications.

Employment Abroad: Employers in many countries require certified translations of foreign employee passports as part of the hiring and work authorization process.

Academic Enrollment: Foreign universities and English-language schools abroad may require certified passport translations for student enrollment and scholarship applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does USCIS require a certified translation of my foreign passport?

USCIS can read passports in most major languages, but if your passport contains entries in a less common language, or if you’re submitting it as evidence in a USCIS proceeding where English documentation is required, a certified translation may be needed. Your immigration attorney can advise on whether a passport translation is required for your specific case.

Yes. We translate all text in a passport, including visa stamps, entry/exit endorsements, and remarks pages.

A standard passport biographical data page is typically one page. If you need visa stamps and annotations translated as well, each additional page is priced separately.

A page is defined as 250 words or less, including numbers. If you aren’t sure of your page count, please request a free quote — we’ll provide the page count along with the estimated turnaround time and total price.
