USCIS translation requirement: We follow the official rule that any document containing a foreign language submitted to USCIS must include a full English translation with the translator’s certification.
What USCIS actually requires (and when a passport needs translation)
Rule of thumb: If you submit a document that contains any foreign language, it must be accompanied by a full English translation plus a signed certification from the translator attesting to accuracy and competence.
Passports: Many biographical pages are bilingual; however, non-English entries (e.g., visas, endorsements, entry/exit stamps, annotations) must be translated when included in an application packet. We provide full translations of the non-English content submitted, rather than summaries, with the required translator certification.
For background and official wording, see the USCIS Policy Manual (Evidence).

Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to translate my entire passport for USCIS?
Only documents containing foreign language submitted with your case must include a full English translation and certification. If you submit passport stamps, visas or annotations in a foreign language, they must be translated; bilingual bio pages may not require translation if fully in English. When in doubt, officers expect full, certified translations of any non-English content.
What is a “certified passport translation”?
A translation accompanied by a signed statement from the translator affirming that the translation is complete and accurate and that they are competent to translate from the source language to English — the standard USCIS requires.
Will you translate every stamp and visa?
Yes. We provide word-for-word translations of visa labels, entry/exit stamps, endorsements and notes — never summaries — so adjudicators can verify dates, locations and authorisations clearly.
How fast is the service?
Most single-passport jobs are completed quickly (rush options available). If you have many pages of stamps/visas or multiple passports, we’ll confirm an exact timeframe with your quote.
Do I need a notarised translation?
USCIS requires a certified translation; notarisation is generally not required for USCIS, though some courts or foreign authorities may request it. Ask our team if notarisation is needed for your use case.
Can you ship printed copies?
Yes — we can send hard copies via tracked post or courier in addition to your secure PDF.
