Issued by the Migration and Foreigners Service
Angolan passports are issued by the Ministry of the Interior through the Serviço de Migração e Estrangeiros (SME). The State Department lists five types: the ordinary passport (passaporte ordinário), diplomatic and service passports, the passport for foreigners and the refugee travel document (título de viagem). The electronic passport has a chip in the back cover; ordinary passports are black, service passports green and diplomatic passports red, with 48 inner pages.
The data page carries a multiple laser image with the holder's photo and date of birth, the biographic data and the machine-readable zone, and the passport number is laser-perforated through the visa pages to the back cover. The inside cover shows the giant sable antelope (palanca negra gigante). A translation covers the data page and any stamps or annotations you need for your case. See our Portuguese page.
Why the passport spelling matters
US forms usually follow the passport spelling. Angolan names can include up to two given names and four surnames, and older documents, especially colonial-era records or records rebuilt after the civil war, sometimes spell or order them differently. When you ask, we use the passport spelling throughout your translations and add a note that the forms refer to the same person.
The passport is based on your identity data, so its details should match the Bilhete de Identidade and the birth record. If they do not, we translate each document as printed. Pages with entry stamps or visas from other countries are translated only if you need them. 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.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need the whole passport translated?
Usually only the data page and any pages with relevant stamps. Ask the receiving office.
My passport and birth record order my surnames differently.
We translate each as printed and can add a note that both refer to you.
I have a refugee travel document, not a passport.
That is the título de viagem. We translate it like a passport.
