Keep your application moving

A missing translation can hold up a visa, a school spot, or a job

You brought your Swahili birth certificate to an immigration office, a university, or an employer, and they asked for a certified English translation before moving forward. Until that translation is in the file, your application waits, and the deadline keeps ticking.

The hard part is that most rejections are not about your real story. They come from a translation that was rushed, done by software, or signed by someone the authority does not recognize. One inconsistent name spelling or a missing certification is enough to send your paperwork to the back of the line.

Matches your original

How we build a Swahili birth certificate translation that gets accepted

ABC Translations pairs your document with a native Swahili-speaking translator who handles civil records. They translate every detail, including stamps, seals, and registry notes, so the English version matches your original line for line.

Each translation comes with a signed certification statement confirming it is complete and accurate. That statement is exactly what government agencies, universities, and employers look for. With support for 120 plus languages, your name and key details stay consistent across every document you submit.

Speak to a Human Now!

Will USCIS accept my certified Swahili birth certificate translation for an I-130 family petition?

Yes. Birth certificate translation is one of the most common requirements for family-based petitions, and our certified Swahili translations meet USCIS requirements for I-130 petitions, consular processing, and adjustment of status.

Each one carries a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy with the translator's credentials, signature, and date, which is exactly what USCIS, schools, and employers ask for.

Can you translate Kenyan, Tanzanian, or Ugandan birth certificates from the civil registry?

Yes. We regularly translate birth certificates from civil registries across East Africa, including Kenya's RITA, Tanzania's RITA, and the registration offices in Uganda, Rwanda, Burundi, and the Democratic Republic of Congo.

Translators know the formats, stamps, and terminology these registries use, including bilingual certificates that carry both Swahili and English.

My Kenyan birth certificate already has English on it. Do I still need the whole thing translated?

If the certificate contains any Swahili or other non-English text, USCIS requires a complete certified translation, and many Kenyan certificates mix Swahili and English.

We translate the entire document and note in the certification which portions were already in English, so nothing looks skipped, including a child's certificate for a petition.

Do I need an apostille for my Kenyan birth certificate, or just the translation?

For USCIS immigration purposes, an apostille is not required. You only need the certified translation. Kenya is a member of the Hague Apostille Convention, so a Kenyan document can receive an apostille for use in other Hague member countries if a different process calls for it.

Tanzania is not a Hague member, so Tanzanian documents use embassy authentication rather than an apostille when international authentication is needed.

My Swahili birth certificate is old, handwritten, or has faded stamps. Can you still translate it?

Yes. Translators are experienced with older East African civil records, including handwritten entries and worn stamps. If any text is truly illegible, we note that in the translation and certification rather than guess.

For the best result, send the clearest scan or photo you can, with good lighting and the full edges and seals visible.

What if the name on my Swahili birth certificate does not match my current documents?

The certified translation reflects the names exactly as they appear on the birth certificate. If those differ from your current identity documents, you may need a supporting document such as a name change certificate, marriage certificate, or affidavit to explain the variation.

Your immigration attorney can advise how to address a name discrepancy in your petition.
