Country-Specific Knowledge

We Know Your Country’s Business License Format

What proves a company is licensed differs by country – a business license, a trade license or a commercial-registry certificate – and the scope and numbers must be exact. Here’s the most common gotcha for each top source.

🇨🇳 China · 营业执照

The 营业执照 (business license) shows the unified social credit code, legal representative, registered capital and business scope. We render the scope precisely and preserve the credit code that identifies the company.

🇦🇪 UAE / Gulf · Trade License

A DED or free-zone trade license lists the license number, activities and sponsors/partners. We translate the activities and the establishment card details, which banks and registries verify.

🇲🇽 Mexico · Acta Constitutiva & RFC

Registration is proven by the acta constitutiva and the RFC/tax registration rather than a single license. We translate both, preserving the RFC and the objeto social (business purpose).

🇪🇸 Spain · Registro Mercantil / Licencia de Actividad

A Registro Mercantil extract plus a municipal licencia de actividad. We preserve the registry data and the CIF and render the authorised activity precisely.

🇧🇷 Brazil · Contrato Social & CNPJ / Alvará

The contrato social with the CNPJ and a municipal alvará de funcionamento. We preserve the CNPJ and translate the objeto and the licensed activities.

🇮🇳 India · GST & Shops-and-Establishment

GST registration and a Shops and Establishment (or Udyam) certificate. We translate any regional-language certificate and preserve the GSTIN and registered activity.

Every Language Routes Through the Same Trusted Pipeline

We translate business and trade licenses both into English and from English into any target language. Whether it is a Chinese business license, a Gulf trade license or a Brazilian contrato social, every order follows the same quality-controlled process, preserving registration numbers and the authorised scope. You upload, we translate, certify and deliver – ready for USCIS, a registry or a bank.

FAQs

Business License Translation: Common Questions

Does USCIS accept a translated business license for an E-2 or L-1?+
Yes. Investor and intracompany petitions require proof the enterprise is validly registered and operating. A foreign-language business license or registration must be submitted with a complete certified English translation, which our Certificate of Accuracy provides.
How much does business license translation cost?+
$29.95 per page (1 page = 300 source words). A business license fits on one page. No surcharges for rarer languages, a printed hard copy by mail is available.
How long does it take?+
Standard turnaround is 24 hours, most delivered the same business day. For a filing, banking or registry deadline, contact us about expedited service.
Will you translate the business scope and registration number exactly?+
Yes. The authorised scope of business and the registration or credit-code number are what a registry, bank or officer verifies. We render the scope precisely and transcribe the identifying numbers character-for-character.
My country has no single ‘business license’ – can you still help?+
Yes. Some countries prove registration with a set of documents (for example an acta constitutiva plus a tax registration, or a commercial-registry extract). We translate whichever documents establish that the company is registered and authorised.
Do I need notarization or apostille?+
USCIS requires certification, not notarization. Registries, banks and foreign authorities may require a notarised translation or an apostille. Notarization is $19.95 per order; apostille is $149.95 per document.
Can you translate a US business license for use abroad?+
Yes. We translate US business licenses, certificates of formation and good-standing certificates from English into the language a foreign registry, bank or partner requires, with the same certified accuracy statement.
