Croatian arrivals in Waterford grew after Croatia joined the EU in 2013, with many working in food processing, manufacturing, construction and hospitality. Some families come from Bosnia and Herzegovina and hold Croatian passports. Their paperwork mixes Croatian civil records, which can come with an EU multilingual form, and Bosnian ones, which fall outside that scheme and need a full translation.

Croatian school leavers applying to SETU submit the svjedodžba o državnoj maturi. We translate each subject, the higher or basic level (A or B) and the grade exactly as they are printed on the certificate.
Croatian nurses applying to University Hospital Waterford send NMBI their diploma and the odobrenje za samostalan rad issued by the Croatian nursing chamber. We translate both with our full contact details.
Care and childcare employers in Waterford may ask for an uvjerenje o nekažnjavanju from Croatia or Bosnia alongside Garda vetting. We translate the certificate and the name of its issuing authority.
Waterford residents born in Bosnia and Herzegovina may need an izvod iz matične knjige rođenih translated for naturalisation. For formal Irish uses, it may also need an apostille from Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Izvadak iz matice vjenčanih
Croatian couples in Waterford use the marriage extract when a bank, Revenue or their children's school asks about a change of surname. We translate the spouses' names, the chosen surnames and the matični ured details, and Croatia can also issue an EU multilingual form.
Diploma i dopunska isprava o studiju
Croatian engineers, pharmacists and lab scientists applying to Waterford employers such as Bausch + Lomb or Sanofi may need their degree compared by QQI NARIC. We translate the diploma and supplement, keeping academic titles such as mag. pharm. and ECTS totals exactly.
Osobna iskaznica
Waterford banks, landlords or employers occasionally want an English version of a Croatian identity card to check an address or the OIB. We translate both sides exactly, and Bosnian and Herzegovinian identity cards, which follow a different layout, are handled the same way.
Croatian and Bosnian documents look alike but come from separate registries, so say which country issued each one. Croatian records can be requested online through e-Građani with the EU multilingual form available, while Bosnian ones have no such option so the Waterford registrar may ask for a Bosnian apostille on the original.
€29.95 per page (300 source words) for certified Croatian 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.
