Hospital and clinic records in Portuguese

Angolan medical records come from public hospitals, clinics and private practices, and are written in Portuguese with Portuguese medical vocabulary: relatório médico (medical report), alta (discharge), receita (prescription), análises (laboratory tests) and vaccination cards. Many are handwritten or partly typed, with stamps and abbreviations. A hospital file can also include registry forms, such as a birth or death declaration, alongside the clinical notes. Doctors' names, titles and stamps are translated as they appear.

We translate the full record, including headings, units, reference ranges and abbreviations, and keep figures and drug names exactly as written. Where a word cannot be read, we mark it as illegible rather than guess, because a doctor or insurer will rely on the translation. Handwritten dosages are checked twice against the original, and anything ambiguous is flagged in a translator's note rather than silently corrected. See our Portuguese page.

Who uses them in the US

US doctors use translated records for continuity of care, insurers for claims, schools for vaccination history, and USCIS sometimes for a waiver or a disability exception. The doctor who completes the immigration medical exam (Form I-693) checks vaccination history, so a translated vaccination card can save repeat shots. We write dates so that a day-month date cannot be misread as month-day.

Records from different hospitals can be translated together; each keeps its own heading, stamp and date in the translation. A medical report that sets a degree of incapacity is a different document; see the Angolan disability certificate page. A hospital's death report belongs with the death certificate. Where a US court needs an authenticated original, Angola uses legalisation through MIREX, not an apostille.

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.
