Registry divorce or court divorce
The Family Code allows divorce by mutual consent or contested divorce. Mutual consent is open to spouses married for more than three years and both aged 21 or over, and can be granted by a court or by the civil registry of either spouse's residence; the registry route needs either no minor children or a final court ruling on parental authority. Contested divorce goes to court on grounds such as de facto separation for more than three years, the other spouse leaving the country for good, or absence without news for three years.
Mutual consent runs in two stages: at the spouses' conference the divorce and their agreements are approved provisionally, and if neither withdraws within 90 days the divorce becomes definitive. Only the definitive divorce ends the marriage, and the decision is sent to the registries that hold the marriage and both birth records. A file may contain both decisions, with different dates; we translate each date exactly. See our Portuguese page.
The certificate and the note on the birth record
The registry then issues a certidão de divórcio, and the divorce is also entered on the endorsements (averbamentos) side of each spouse's birth record. If an office asks for proof of divorce, either can serve; when both are in your file we translate both. The application for a registry divorce carries a notarized signature, and where there are minor children a court certificate on custody, which we translate if you send it.
On divorce a spouse loses the right to the other's surname, so names on later documents may change back. We copy each name as printed. See the Angolan marriage certificate and legal separation pages. Angola is not a party to the Apostille Convention, so where a US court or agency wants an authenticated original, the document is legalised by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MIREX) and then by the consulate of the country where it will be used. USCIS does not ask for that.
What USCIS requires
Under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), a foreign-language document must be accompanied by a complete English translation and the translator's certification that it is accurate. Every seal, stamp and marginal note is part of the document, so every one is translated.
State agencies set their own rules — see government agencies — and what our certification states is on this page.
How it works
Upload a photo or a scan of your document, pick the language pair and check out online. You never have to mail originals: a legible copy is all we need.
A professional human translator, never machine translation, translates the document word for word and mirrors the layout of the original. Every certified translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that meets the requirements of USCIS, courts and universities.
Your translation is delivered digitally, usually within 24 hours for documents of one to three pages, and same-day delivery is available. If anything needs adjusting, we revise it.
Certified vs. standard translation
A certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed statement attesting to its accuracy and completeness. It is what official bodies require: USCIS, courts, universities and government agencies. Certified translations are $24.95 per page, where one sheet of your document is one page, with no word cap.
A standard translation is the same professional human translation without the certificate, for when you only need to understand the content or for internal or informal use. It is billed at the same $24.95 per page with no word cap.
