Certified Portuguese translation for USCIS
Brazilian documents translated into English the way USCIS asks: a complete translation with a signed translator's certification. Delivered as a PDF within 24 hours.
What USCIS requires
Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), any foreign-language document you submit to USCIS must come with a full English translation and a statement from the translator certifying that they are competent to translate and that the translation is complete and accurate.
Every Expedite Docs translation includes that signed and dated certificate of accuracy in the same PDF as the translation.
Do I need a sworn or notarized translation?
Not for USCIS. The United States has no sworn-translator system like Brazil's tradutor juramentado. USCIS asks for a certified translation as described above, without notarization.
If your document is going somewhere else, such as a school, a court or another country, tell us where and we will explain what is usually required.
Documents we translate most
Birth and marriage certificates, divorce records, Brazilian ID (RG) and driver's licenses (CNH), police clearance certificates, diplomas and school transcripts, bank statements and letters.

Frequently asked questions
Do you translate the whole document?
Yes. USCIS asks for a complete translation, so we translate everything, including stamps, seals and handwritten notes, which are described in brackets.
Can I send a phone photo?
Yes. Use good light, keep the document flat and show all four corners. If anything is hard to read, we ask before translating.
What if my name is spelled differently on my passport?
Write the passport spelling in the notes. If a name needs correcting later, we fix it at no cost.
