Driver's license conversion certified translation services
The DMV or a foreign authority will not convert your license off an uncertified translation. ABC turns your driver's license into certified English or another language for $24.10 per page in 48 hours, guaranteed accepted by the receiving office.
You can drive. The DMV just needs to read your license.
A license conversion can stall fast when reviewers cannot read the foreign-language card. Some U.S. states will not issue a local license from a foreign-language license until they receive a certified English version. Canada, Japan, and EU countries may ask for certified or sworn license translations before issuing a local license.
It is the kind of errand that turns into a wasted trip. You show up at the DMV ready to convert, and you are turned away because the translation is missing, uncertified, or hard for the clerk to match against the original. Now you are back in line another day.
Driver's licenses are translated word for word and certified by ABC at $24.10 per page with a signed accuracy-and-competence statement. We preserve the original layout and formatting, so the reviewing officer can match every field to the original at a glance.
More than 255,000 customers have used us for official documents that had to be accepted the first time, and 25 years of certified translation work means the DMV and state licensing offices receive a word-for-word English version of your foreign-language license that meets their exact requirements.
