Account Verification With Documents in Another Language
What 4 online platforms say about the documents you upload to verify an account — an ID, a bank or utility statement, a business registration — when they are not in English: whether they accept them as they are, ask for a translation, or ask for a notarized one.
Every rule is taken from the platform's own help pages, linked and dated.
4 platforms
Each one states what it does with documents in other languages.

Each rule links to the platform's own help page, checked in November 2026.
$24.95/page
Certified translation, usually within a few hours.
Platform by platform
Each platform below says on its own help pages what it does with a document in a language its reviewers do not read, and a certified translation from eVerbary meets that rule: Amazon and Kraken ask for a notarized translation (we add notarization for $34.90 per order), Meta for an agency-stamped one, PayPal Australia for an accredited translator. Read on November 13, 2026; each page links its source.

What other platforms say
We read the help pages of Stripe, eBay, Shopify Payments, Payoneer, Airbnb, Uber, Lyft, Google Ads, Google Play, Apple Developer, Amazon KDP and Amazon Associates on November 13, 2026, and none of them states a rule for documents in other languages.
If one of them asks you for a translation, a certified translation is the safe choice.
Wise says you do not need to translate documents that show where your money comes from, and Upwork reviews IDs in any language.
Etsy Payments asks for the name on your ID in Latin characters, and Coinbase for an ID in English or Latin script: there a translation does not help, because the ID itself is checked.
What an eVerbary translation includes
- A complete English translation of every page, stamps, seals and handwritten notes included, laid out like the original so each line can be matched.
- A signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead, with our contact details, delivered as a PDF you can upload or print.
- $24.95 per page with no word cap, certification included; 24 hours for one to three pages as standard. Regular clients who need it can get delivery in as little as 30 minutes, on request.
- Notarization added at checkout ($34.90 per order) when the office asks for a notarized translation.
What we do not do
eVerbary is a translation service: we translate the documents you choose to upload, we do not contact the platform for you, and we cannot tell you whether your account will be approved — that decision is the platform's.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need a translation to verify my account?
It depends on the platform and on the document. Several accept documents in many languages as they are; some ask for an English translation, or a notarized one, when the document is in a language their reviewers do not read. Each page quotes the platform's own rule and the date we read it.
Will a translation get my account approved?
No one but the platform can promise that. A translation lets the reviewer read your document; the platform still checks that the name, address and details match your account.
Do I upload the translation together with the original?
Usually yes: the original document and its translation, as one file or two, where the platform allows it. Each page says what the platform asks.
How much does it cost?
$24.95 per page at eVerbary, with no word cap, certification included. Notarization is $34.90 per order when a platform asks for it.
