Intercountry adoption produces paperwork in the child’s language at every stage: court orders, child-study reports, consents and new birth records. We translate it into certified English for Irish families working with the Adoption Authority of Ireland, Tusla, the Passport Office and their solicitor, and translate Irish documents for authorities abroad. €29.95 per page, most documents in 24 hours, handled confidentially by professional translators.
No account required. No commitment. Exact price in seconds.
Send a photo, scan or PDF of your adoption documents through our secure portal. We count the words and show you the exact price in euro straight away.
A professional translator completes your translation, and we attach a signed Certificate of Accuracy with our full contact details, company stamp and reference number.
Your certified translation arrives by email as a PDF, ready to submit. A hard copy by tracked post or an apostille can be added at checkout. 12-hour expedited service on request.
No add-ons hidden in the small print. Everything below is standard.
Worded to mirror the format Irish bodies publish: a statement that it is a true translation of the original, the date, the translator’s name and signature, and our address, phone and email.
We translate the court or authority and case number, the child’s names before and after adoption, date and place of birth, the adoptive parents’ details, consents and their dates, the operative order, the Article 23 certificate if it is not in English, and every seal, stamp and signature.
A native speaker with experience in your exact document type, never machine translation. The same translator across all your documents on request.
Every certificate carries our company stamp and a unique reference number, which several Irish registration bodies and the Foreign Births Register ask to see.
Emailed as a PDF on completion. Where the receiving body wants paper, add a hard copy sent by tracked post at checkout.
Free revisions until you are happy. If a receiving body rejects the translation, we revise it free or refund you in full.
€29.95 per page. An adoption order is often one to three pages, while a child-study report or medical history can be much longer, so upload it for an exact quote. For Irish documents going abroad, such as a home-study report, we translate from English; ask the other country about apostille needs first.
Irish residents can adopt only from Hague Convention countries, and every step of the process creates records. These are the Irish uses where a certified translation of adoption paperwork comes up.
Within three months of coming home, you apply to the Adoption Authority to register the adoption, based on the Article 23 certificate from the child’s country. Ask the Authority which documents it wants translated.
The child’s country sends a report on the child, the birth parents, medical history and consents. A full English translation gives you the complete record to read and keep.
For a child adopted abroad, the Passport Office accepts an original Intercountry Adoption Certificate from the Adoption Authority as evidence the adoption is recognised. Without one, it asks for further evidence.
Under the Irish Nationality and Citizenship Act 1956, a child adopted by an Irish citizen, or by a couple where either spouse is Irish, becomes an Irish citizen once the adoption is recognised here.
Where the Irish-born parent or grandparent in an FBR application was adopted, DFA asks for the adoption certificate issued by the central authority of the country where the adoption took place.
Citizens Information recommends a solicitor who specialises in intercountry adoption. If foreign-language papers go before an Irish court, a translator’s affidavit is needed, so ask your solicitor how it should be handled.
Same €29.95 per page whatever the language. These are the languages we see most often from clients in Ireland.
Irish residents can currently adopt from Bulgaria, China, Haiti, India, the Philippines, Poland, Thailand, the UK, the United States and Vietnam, and older adoptions from elsewhere also need translating. Here is what to expect from common formats.
Polish adoptions are made by a court decision on adoption (postanowienie sądu o przysposobieniu), followed by a new birth record naming the adoptive parents. We translate both, including the finality clause (stwierdzenie prawomocności).
A Bulgarian adoption is made by a court decision on adoption, and a new birth certificate (удостоверение за раждане) is then issued. Cyrillic names are transliterated consistently across every document in the file.
Chinese intercountry adoptions are registered with the civil affairs authorities, producing an adoption registration certificate, usually alongside notarial certificates. We translate every certificate, seal and reference number in the set.
The Vietnamese adoption certificate is issued once the adoption is registered by the Vietnamese authorities. Vietnamese names carry tone marks, which we keep exactly, so the child’s name matches later Irish records.
Haitian adoption judgments are in French and come from the civil court (tribunal civil), followed by a new birth record (acte de naissance) naming the adoptive parents. We translate the judgment’s reasoning and orders in full.
Adoptions completed years ago in Russia still need translating for passports and records. The court decision (усыновление, or удочерение for a girl) is followed by a new birth certificate; we translate both from archived copies.
Upload the documents through our secure order page; we use them only to prepare your translation. A native-speaker translator keeps the child’s names consistent across every document in the set, and you receive signed, stamped PDFs by email, with hard copies by tracked post if you need them.
