Passport Translation services
Your identity, preserved

Your passport proves who you are. An uncertified translation can undo that.

A passport is your proof of identity and nationality, and the moment you hand it to an immigration officer, a court clerk, an admissions office, or an employer, it has to be readable and trusted. When it is in another language, they ask for a certified translation before they will accept it.

Here is what is at stake if the translation is wrong or uncertified: a visa or residency application sent back, a court filing rejected, a university admission delayed, a job offer stalled during a background check. With identity documents, a small error or a missing certification can cost you weeks, money, and in some cases legal standing.

Accepted by agencies

Certified passport translations agencies actually accept

This is exactly what certified passport translation services are for. For certified passport translation, ABC Translations renders the document word for word, holds the source layout in place, and attaches a signed certification statement. The work is done by native-speaking pros who understand exactly what officers reviewing the file watch for.

This is what makes the difference at the counter: the certification statement tells USCIS, courts, universities, and employers that the translation is complete and faithful to the original, so they can act on it instead of returning it. That guarantee of 100% acceptance with these institutions backs each order we deliver.

Certified passport translations are $24.10 per page, delivered in 48 hours, with unlimited revisions. Add expedited service when the deadline is close. More than 255,000 customers have come to ABC Translations over 25 years for certified passport translations handled securely online across 120+ languages, with the price shown before you commit and every order rendered word for word.

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!

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.

Do I have to translate my whole passport, or just the photo page?

For most USCIS applications you only need the biographical data page translated, the page with your photo and personal details. Some filings also ask for pages that carry visas or entry stamps.

Requirements vary by agency and purpose, so check the instructions for your specific application. If you are unsure which pages to send, we can help you confirm before you order.

Will USCIS accept your certified passport translation?

Yes. Our passport translations meet USCIS certification requirements, including the signed certification statement, the translator's credentials, and complete accuracy of the biographical details.

USCIS takes our certified passport work for immigration filings, which is exactly why each order ships with a 100% acceptance promise covering USCIS, universities, and courts.

Can you translate an expired passport for my immigration file?

Yes. We translate expired passports. Immigration applications often require a previous passport to establish travel history or to document a name change, and the passport does not need to be current for us to certify the translation.

Send the pages you need from the expired passport along with your current one if both are required.

How do I submit my passport for translation? Do I have to mail the original?

No mailing required. Just scan or photograph the pages you need translated and upload them when you place your order. Make sure the image is clear and every line of text is readable.

We accept PDF, JPG, PNG, and most common file formats, so your original passport stays safely in your hands.

What does a certified passport translation cost and how fast is it?

Passport translation is $24.10 per page. Since most passports only need the single biographical data page translated, the typical total is $24.10. If you also need pages with visas or stamps, the cost rises with each page, and the price is shown up front with no hidden fees.

Standard delivery is within 48 hours, and an expedited rush option is available when you are facing an urgent submission deadline.
