IRCC certified translation services
IRCC asks for a certified translation of every foreign-language document in your immigration or citizenship file. At $24.10 per page, ABC turns those around in 48 hours, revises for free, and backs your submission with a 100% acceptance guarantee.
Why your IRCC documents need certified translation
Your file is nearly finished, and then you hit the rule: anything you submit that is not already in English or French has to arrive with a certified translation. A birth certificate, a marriage certificate, a police certificate, an academic transcript, an employment letter. One wrong format and the whole file can stall for weeks while IRCC waits for a fix.
That delay is the real cost. An application held back for a translation problem can push your start date, your move, or your family reunification further out than you planned. The fix is not guesswork. IRCC asks for translations that are complete and word for word, with a certification statement, or a notarized affidavit when the translation is done outside Canada.
This is exactly what IRCC certified translation services are for. ABC Translations builds each translation to that standard. Every page comes with a signed statement that affirms the work is accurate and that the translator is competent to do it. A certified translator working inside Canada handles the job, or, if you are abroad, an independent translator supported by a notarized affidavit does, which lines your file up with IRCC's rules from day one.
Working in their native language, our translators reproduce your documents clearly and exactly, watching the precise details an IRCC reviewer looks for. The result is a submission built to be accepted the first time, which is the fastest path through any application queue.

Commonly translated IRCC documents
IRCC requires certified translations for documents that are not in English or French. We prepare the IRCC paperwork Canadian immigration applicants need most often, including these:

IRCC translation requirements
Every certified translation we produce is built to satisfy the translation guidelines IRCC has set, and acceptance is guaranteed. The specific rules they expect you to follow, so your paperwork goes through cleanly and on time, are listed here:
- Certified translations required Any supporting document that is not already in English or French has to come with a certified translation when you submit it.
- Verbatim and complete translations The translation has to render every word and capture all details, including stamps, seals, and anything written by hand. A summary or partial extract will not be accepted.
- Certified translator in Canada When the translation happens inside Canada, the person doing it must be a certified translator in good standing with a translators' body at the provincial or territorial level, ATIO, OTTIAQ, or STIBC among them.
- Affidavit for translations completed abroad When the work is done outside Canada, the translator has to swear an affidavit before a notary public confirming that the translation is accurate and complete.
- Translator independence The applicant, relatives, and immigration representatives are barred from doing the translation, and that holds true even when they happen to be qualified translators.
- Originals and translations Along with the finished translation, you need to include the source document itself, or a certified true copy of it, in your IRCC package.
