Translation converts written content from one language into another. Interpretation converts spoken or signed communication between languages in real time. ATIS provides both translation and interpreting services.
A certified translation is accompanied by a signed certification stating that the translation is complete and accurate and identifying the translator or translation provider responsible for the certification.
A notarized translation includes an additional notarization of the signature on the certification when that step is requested by the receiving institution.
USCIS generally requires a complete English translation accompanied by the translator's certification that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate from the foreign language into English.
ATIS prepares certified translations for common official uses, including USCIS immigration filings, schools, universities, legal matters, government offices, and California agency submissions.
Requirements can vary by court, agency, filing type, or receiving institution. If your attorney, court clerk, government office, university, or other recipient provides specific certification instructions, send those instructions to us so we can prepare the translation accordingly.
Yes. We provide certified translations for documents that may be used internationally, including birth certificates, marriage certificates, school records, legal documents, and other official records.
Apostille requirements depend on the type of document and the country where it will be used. An apostille authenticates the signature of the public official on the underlying document; it does not certify the contents of the document itself.
If notarization or a particular certification format is required before the apostille process, we can prepare the appropriate translation certification upon request.
USCIS: Foreign-language documents generally must include a full English translation certified as complete and accurate, together with certification that the translator is competent to translate from the foreign language into English.
California court matters: Requirements may vary by court, filing type, judge, clerk, or local rule. Some matters may require a translator declaration, specific wording, notarization, or particular translator credentials.
Send us any instructions from your attorney, court, or agency and we can prepare the certification in the requested format.
Yes. Translation and certification requirements can vary by state, court, district, filing type, and local rule.
Before finalizing a court translation, it is helpful to provide the court name, county or district, case type, and any instructions from your attorney or the clerk. We can then prepare the certification based on the requirements provided for that matter.
Notarization verifies a signature or notarial act when required. An apostille authenticates the signature and authority of a public official for a document being used outside the United States.
The exact process depends on the document type, where it was issued, and the country or institution receiving it. Not every document requires both notarization and an apostille.
Yes. When requested, we can arrange notarization of the signature on the Certificate of Translation Accuracy. Some agencies, consulates, schools, or other institutions may request this additional step.
Additional fees and processing time may apply.
Localization adapts translated content for the language, terminology, cultural expectations, and conventions of a specific audience or market.
Transcreation takes a more creative approach, adapting the message and emotional impact of content such as advertising, branding, and marketing materials.
ATIS uses careful document review, qualified linguists, appropriate subject-matter expertise, and quality-control procedures based on the needs of each project.
For certified documents, clients may also review draft translations for important details such as names, dates, spellings, and document information before final certification.
