Certified French Translations
Need a document in French or English that a court, university, or agency will accept? Native French linguists deliver certified translations from $24.10 per page within 48 hours, accepted for official use.

Get a French translation the receiving office will accept
A French birth certificate, diploma, or contract is only useful if the office reading it accepts it. When an immigration officer, university, or employer asks for a certified English version, a rough or machine translation is the fastest way to get sent back to the start.
This is exactly what certified French translations are for. ABC Translations handles certified and standard French translation with native French linguists who are fluent in English. Each one is vetted before a project and reviewed afterward, so your document is accurate, consistent, and ready for official use the first time.

Thousands of French translations have come through our team, covering education, business filings, immigration, and personal matters. The work is professional and matches the pace your application or filing requires.

Frequently Asked Questions
Have a question about French translation with ABC? This page walks you through how the work gets done, what it costs, how long it takes, where the result is accepted, your notarization choices, and the way your finished file reaches you.
Can you translate French civil registry documents like an acte de naissance or acte de mariage?
Yes. We regularly translate French etat civil documents, including birth certificates (acte de naissance), marriage certificates (acte de mariage), and death certificates (acte de deces). Our translators know French civil registry terminology, so each record reads accurately in English.
Will USCIS accept your certified French translation for my immigration application?
Yes. Our French translations include a signed certification statement that meets USCIS requirements, so the office can confirm the translation is complete and accurate. No separate notarization is needed for a USCIS submission.
Can you translate French diplomas and professional licenses for credential evaluation?
Yes. We translate French diplomas, professional licenses, and employment records for credential evaluation and U.S. licensing. Our translators know French academic and professional terminology, so the detail an evaluator relies on comes through clearly.
Can you translate French documents from Francophone African countries?
Yes. We translate French documents issued across Francophone Africa, including Senegal, Ivory Coast, and Cameroon, as well as France, Belgium, Switzerland, and Canada. Our translators are familiar with the document formats used in these regions.
Do I need an apostille for my French document?
It depends on the office requesting it. France is part of the Hague Apostille Convention, so French documents can receive an apostille from the French Ministry of Foreign Affairs. We provide the certified translation, and you obtain the apostille separately if the receiving office requires one.
How much does French translation cost and how fast can I get it?
Professional French translation starts at $0.06 per word or certified at $24.10 per page, with the full price shown before you confirm. Standard turnaround is 48 hours from when we receive your documents, and rush service is available for urgent deadlines. Many French documents, like birth certificates and diplomas, are completed within hours.
Can my certified French translation be notarized if the office asks for it?
Yes. Notarization is available as an add-on when the receiving office requires it. You can add it at checkout, or ask us first if you are not sure whether your situation needs it.
