If you're a notary public in the United States, chances are you’ve already encountered clients who need documents translated and certified for legal purposes. Whether it’s for immigration, court proceedings, or official filings, understanding the role of certified translation is essential — and choosing the right partner can make all the difference.
At Idiomatic Brasil, we help notaries across the U.S. by providing fast, accurate, and legally compliant translations in all languages. Here’s everything you need to know.
A certified translation is a word-for-word translation of a document, accompanied by a signed statement from the translator or translation agency affirming that the translation is accurate and complete. This is often required by:
USCIS (immigration)
State and federal courts
Universities
Law firms
Government agencies
As a notary, your clients may need translations for documents such as:
Birth, marriage, and death certificates
Powers of attorney and affidavits
School transcripts and diplomas
Passports and identification documents
Legal contracts and corporate records
Apostilles and sworn statements
