Supporting documents for U.S. visa applications must be translated by a certified translator. We deliver embassy-accepted translations for all visa categories.
Every U.S. visa application that includes foreign-language documents requires a certified translation accepted by the U.S. embassy or consulate processing your case. This applies to tourist visas (B-1/B-2), student visas (F-1, J-1), work visas (H-1B, O-1, L-1), and immigrant visas alike. Official Translations provides embassy-accepted certified translations for all visa categories, with a signed certificate of accuracy included at no extra charge. Start your visa translation order now.
For immigrant visa applicants going through the National Visa Center, supporting documents such as birth certificates, police clearances, and financial records must all be certified translated. If you are also filing related USCIS petitions, see our USCIS certified translation page. For fiancé and spouse visas specifically, visit our K-1 / spouse visa translation page for detailed requirements.
