Notarized translation of documents

Translation of passport into English

Why do I need a notarized translation of my passport into English?

Passport is the main document that certifies a person's identity. Its translation into English is often needed by Russian citizens when traveling to other countries, for example, for:

  • admission to a foreign school, college or university;
  • execution of powers of attorney;
  • opening a foreign bank account;
  • conclusion of contracts, real estate transactions;
  • official employment in another country;
  • starting an international business or branch office;
  • applying for a foreign citizenship or residence permit.

In most of these cases, the main page of the document with personal data is translated, as well as the page with stamps on registration at the place of residence, information on marital status and children. In some situations, the remaining pages are additionally translated.

Do I need to put an apostille on the translation of my passport?

Recently, more and more often we are faced with the fact that foreign partners and authorities ask to put an Apostille on a passport translation - a stamp of international standard, which gives the document legal force outside the Russian Federation in the states that have signed the Hague Convention. In this case, when preparing the papers, it is necessary not to forget about a few things, and the whole procedure happens in several stages:

  1. preparation of a notarized copy of the passport;
  2. translation into English;
  3. notary certification of the authenticity of the translator's signature;
  4. applying to the Ministry of Justice for apostille.

I've visited a lot of translation offices, and this one is definitely my favorite! The staff have a great attitude towards clients and the atmosphere is really friendly. They explained everything to me in a calm and clear way, and they were really patient with my silly questions. After seeing what other offices are like, this place really stands out. 🥲 Thanks so much, Sergey! I hope this office will be successful and grow.❤️
