Certified driver's license translation services
A DMV clerk or immigration officer cannot accept a license they are unable to read. We translate and certify yours at $24.10 per page, delivered within 48 hours and guaranteed to be accepted wherever you present it.
A license that proves who you are at home may not be readable here
You need to register at the DMV, finish an immigration filing, set up insurance, or pick up a rental car, and your driver's license is in another language. The clerk cannot verify it, so the answer is no, not yet.
For residency, immigration, insurance, rentals, or local licensing, a driver's license often has to work as official ID. When the license is issued in another language, immigration agencies, DMVs, insurers, rental agencies, and courts need a certified translation before they will accept it. The common holdups are familiar: a name or date that does not match the original, a format that looks nothing like the source, or no certificate of accuracy attached.
Each one is small. Each one can send you back to the end of the line.

I purchased a translation on Friday and expected a 24-hour turnaround but also ordered a notary not knowing it wasn't part of the estimated time. Unsurprisingly I needed it immediately. I emailed support and within a few hours, it was completely signed and notarized! Hats off to y'all!
Amazing service! My translation was done in 2 hours. All done on time, the right way, and the price was very good! Highly recommend.
I reached out to them last Friday for an emergency translation. They got back within the hour. ETA was 24 hours. Since it was a Friday, I expected Monday, but it was completed on Saturday. Accurate and on time, great job!

Frequently Asked Questions
Find clear answers to the questions people most often ask about working with us. See how the workflow runs, what it costs, how long it takes, where documents are accepted, which notarization choices exist, and the way finished files reach you.
Will the DMV and immigration accept a certified translation of my foreign driver's license?
Yes. Each driver's license translation is word for word, preserves the original formatting, and includes a signed certificate of accuracy. We prepare license translations for courts, rental agencies, insurers, DMVs, and immigration offices, with acceptance guaranteed.
The translation proves your license is valid and shows the vehicle classes you are authorized to drive.
Is a certified translation of my license the same as an International Driving Permit?
No. An International Driving Permit is a standardized booklet issued by authorized organizations such as AAA that renders your license details into several languages. A certified translation is a document-specific translation of your actual license with a certificate of accuracy.
Some authorities accept an IDP, others require a certified translation, so check what your destination or DMV expects before you order.
Do you translate both sides of the driver's license card?
Yes. We translate all information from both sides of your license, including personal details, vehicle classes, restrictions, endorsements, and any additional notes.
Capturing both sides is what lets an authority verify the full scope of your driving credentials.
Will rental car companies accept your driver's license translation?
Yes. Our certified translations are accepted by major rental car companies worldwide, including Enterprise, Hertz, Avis, and Budget, as well as local agencies in Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
The certification gives rental agencies the verification they need to release a vehicle to a foreign license holder.
How do I make sure the translation meets my specific DMV's requirements?
DMV requirements vary by state and sometimes by office within the same state. Before you order, confirm your DMV's exact requirements by calling them or checking their website, then contact us so we can match those specifications.
Verifying upfront prevents a rejection and helps your translation be accepted the first time.
How fast can I get my driver's license translated, and what does it cost?
A driver's license is typically counted as one page, including both sides, so the cost is $24.10, with the translation, the certificate of accuracy, and digital delivery included.
Standard delivery is 48 hours, with expedited and super-expedited options for urgent travel. Contact us with your timeline for rush pricing.
