Planning to remarry in Ireland, or changing the name on your passport? A foreign divorce has to be proven, and in some cases recognised under Irish law, before an Irish body will act on it. We translate the final decree, the finality stamp and related court records into certified English for the Civil Registration Service, the General Register Office, the Passport Office and Irish courts. €29.95 per page, most decrees delivered in 24 hours.
No account required. No commitment. Exact price in seconds.
Send a photo, scan or PDF of your divorce 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, case number, both parties’ names, the date of the decree, the operative part dissolving the marriage, any orders on children, maintenance and property, and, crucially, the clause or stamp confirming the decree is final, together with every seal 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. A registry divorce certificate is one page, while a full court judgment with reasons can run to five or more. Registrars and DFA ask for a certified translation. If the decree goes before an Irish court, the court rules also require a translator’s affidavit, so ask your solicitor how it should be handled.
Not every foreign divorce is automatically recognised in Ireland. What you need depends on where the divorce was granted and why you need it. These are the most common Irish uses.
If divorced, you bring the final decree for every previous divorce to the Registrar, with any stay order. For a divorce granted abroad, the HSE says to contact the Civil Registration Service for advice first.
Where EU rules do not apply, you complete a questionnaire and the General Register Office must consent before the marriage goes ahead. It looks at your decree and where each spouse was domiciled.
Divorces from other EU states are recognised under the Brussels IIa and IIb Regulations, and UK divorces under the 2020 Withdrawal Act. The Registrar still needs to see the decree, translated if necessary.
If the GRO does not accept a foreign divorce, you can ask the Circuit Court to decide. Foreign-language documents in Irish court proceedings need a translator’s affidavit; your solicitor can advise.
After a name change, the Passport Office asks for the original divorce decree or separation order, certified by a solicitor or the court, to link your identity. Add our translation if needed.
Irish citizens marrying abroad after a divorce send DFA the petition and the final decree. DFA asks for certified translations of any supporting documents that are not in English or Irish.
Same €29.95 per page whatever the language. These are the languages we see most often from clients in Ireland.
Divorce paperwork varies more than any other civil record: court judgments, registry certificates, notarial deeds and religious forms. Here is what each country’s documents need translated before an Irish registrar can assess them.
Polish divorce judgments come from the Sąd Okręgowy (regional court). The Registrar needs proof the decree is final, shown by the stamp stwierdzenie prawomocności and its date. Send the copy bearing that clause and we translate it.
Romania allows divorce by court judgment (sentință civilă de divorț) and, in agreed cases, before a notary or the civil status office, which issue a certificat de divorț. We translate whichever route your divorce took.
Agreed Brazilian divorces are often made by public deed at a Tabelionato de Notas rather than in court. Many clients also send the marriage certificate with the divorce annotation (averbação), which we translate alongside it.
Ukraine issues a divorce certificate from the civil registry office or a court judgment (рішення суду) noting the date it entered into force. We translate both, and match every name to your passport spelling.
A registry divorce produces the 离婚证 certificate; a court divorce produces a judgment (离婚判决书) or a mediation statement (民事调解书). Terms on children and property are translated in full, because Irish bodies may read them.
Divorce by talaq is usually evidenced by a Union Council certificate of effectiveness under the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance 1961, often with a NADRA divorce certificate. Recognition is decided by the GRO or the courts; we translate precisely.
Upload every page of the decree, including the finality stamp, which is often on the last page or the back. A native-speaker legal translator handles the court terminology, dates and case numbers are checked against the original, and you receive a signed, stamped PDF. If a court is involved, your solicitor can advise on the translator’s affidavit.
