Romanian is now the most spoken foreign language in Dublin homes, and its paperwork follows every stage of life, from a first job in Blanchardstown to a consultant post at St James's. We translate the certificat de naștere, cazier judiciar, diplomă de licență and Moldovan records into certified English for €29.95 per page. Upload a scan, and one to three pages usually come back by email within 24 hours, with ș and ț spelt correctly.
Across the four Dublin council areas, 32,546 people speak Romanian at home (Census 2022), the combined figure for Dublin City, Dún Laoghaire-Rathdown, Fingal and South Dublin.
Dublin's Romanian community has grown fast and is weighted towards Fingal and Dublin City, with many young families in the suburbs. Doctors and nurses from Romania work on wards across the capital, while others are in construction, logistics, hospitality and care. Their documents track that mix: Medical Council and NMBI files, marriage notification at Joyce House, birth certificates for citizenship after years of residence, and school reports when children enrol in Dublin schools.

Romanian doctors taking posts at St James's, Beaumont or Tallaght University Hospital register first with the Medical Council. We translate the medical diplomă, the foaie matricolă and the certificate of current professional status from the Colegiul Medicilor, each stamped and signed.
Romanian couples marrying in Dublin bring a certificat de naștere and, after an earlier marriage, the sentință civilă de divorț to the Civil Registration Service. A multilingual form may stand in for the birth record, though registrars often still want the divorce judgment in English.
Nursing homes and home-care providers across Fingal and South Dublin often want a cazier judiciar from staff who lived in Romania as adults, next to Garda vetting. We translate the certificate with its number and issue date, normally within a day.
Dublin residents born in Moldova hold Romanian-language certificates, sometimes on Soviet-era forms with Russian entries. Moldova is outside the EU, so no multilingual form exists, and citizenship or marriage files need a full English translation of every line.
Diplomă de bacalaureat
Romanian teenagers who moved to Dublin partway through school often apply to Trinity or UCD with a bacalaureat sat back home. The CAO wants an official translation, so we render every exam mark out of 10 and the media generală exactly as printed.
Adeverință de vechime
Since the carnet de muncă was phased out in 2011, Romanian work history is usually shown on an adeverință de vechime from the employer. Dublin nursing homes and HSE recruiters use it to credit experience, so we translate every post, date and contract type.
Certificat de naștere
After years of living in Dublin, many Romanians apply for Irish citizenship, and ISD wants a copy of each non-English document alongside its translation. We translate the Starea Civilă certificate, including the CNP, both parents' names and any marginal mentions.
If you are from Moldova rather than Romania, your certificates are non-EU documents, so ask the Dublin body whether it wants an apostille from Moldova on the original first; we then translate the document and its apostille together. Romanian registrars will often attach the EU multilingual standard form on request, and Joyce House and ISD EU Treaty Rights may take instead of a translation.
€29.95 per page (300 source words) for certified Romanian translation, with free delivery by email. Add a hard copy by tracked post (€14.95) or an apostille for use abroad (from €149.95) at checkout. See all services.
