Cork has Ireland's second-largest Italian community after Dublin, including researchers at UCC and Tyndall, engineers at Cork's pharma and medtech sites, chefs and doctors. We translate estratti di nascita and matrimonio, certificati di stato libero, lauree and wills into certified English at €29.95 per page. Most one- to three-page orders arrive by email within 24 hours, with apostrophes and accents in names kept.
In Co. Cork, 2,370 people speak Italian at home (Census 2022), the figure for Cork City and County combined.
Italian speakers in Cork include long-settled Irish-Italian families as well as recent graduates drawn by research and industry jobs. As EU citizens they rarely need translations for residence, but life events bring Italian paperwork to Cork offices: a wedding in the city or West Cork, a laurea for a registration body, an Italian estate with Irish assets, or an Irish certificate sent back to the Comune.

Italian-trained doctors joining CUH or the Mercy University Hospital register with the Medical Council, sending the laurea, the Albo certificate from their Ordine dei Medici and a transcript. We translate all three in one consistent order.
An Italian partner marrying in West Cork gives notification with an estratto di nascita and a certificato di stato libero. We translate both, and if either comes with an EU multilingual form, the Cork registrar may not need a translation at all.
Italian engineers and scientists applying to Cork pharma or medtech firms may be asked for a QQI NARIC comparison of their laurea magistrale. We translate the parchment and the certificato di laurea con esami, keeping marks out of 30.
Where a Cork resident leaves an Italian testamento pubblico, the Cork District Probate Registry needs an English translation with an affidavit of translator. We translate the will and any notarial verbale. Your solicitor can confirm how the affidavit should be sworn for the registry.
Diploma di esame di Stato (maturità)
Italian students applying to UCC after finishing school in Italy send the maturità diploma and the grade certificate to the CAO. We translate the final voto out of 100, the indirizzo of study and each subject, keeping the lode where one was awarded.
Estratto dell’atto di nascita
Italians marrying in Cork give notification to the Civil Registration Service Cork first. We translate the estratto dell'atto di nascita, which the Comune issues with annotations on earlier marriages or recognitions, and the stato libero certificate where you have one.
Certificato del casellario giudiziale
Italian teachers and language assistants joining Cork schools may be asked for a criminal record certificate from Italy in addition to Garda vetting. We translate the certificato del casellario and, when a school wants both, the separate pending charges certificate.
Book your Cork marriage notification at least three months ahead, and remember that Italian civil status certificates are generally valid for only six months, so time your request so it does not expire before the wedding. We translate it quickly once it arrives, and a plurilingual version may also be available from the Comune.
