Documents that have to be right

When a certified translation is wrong, you rarely find out until it has already cost you: a returned petition, a postponed hearing, a lost semester. Lingua Bridge certifies translations that agencies and courts accept without a second request. Every project is translated by a qualified linguist, reviewed by a second, and delivered with a signed certificate of accuracy that attests the translation is complete and faithful to the original. We preserve seals, stamps, and layout so the finished document reads as the official record it represents.

Certified translation FAQs

  • Will USCIS accept your certified translations?
    Yes. Our certified translations include the signed certificate of accuracy USCIS requires, and they are backed by our acceptance guarantee. If an agency ever raises a translation-related issue, we correct it at no charge.
  • How long does certification take?
    Most standard civil documents are ready within two to three business days. Rush and same-day service is available when a deadline is close.
  • Do you notarize translations?
    We can arrange notarization of the certificate of accuracy when the receiving party requires it. Just let us know at intake.
  • What file formats do you accept?
    Clear PDF scans or phone photos work well. We return a print-ready PDF and can mail hard copies anywhere in the United States.
