The IDIF sits under the prosecution
Bolivia places its Instituto de Investigaciones Forenses under the Ministerio Público, so forensic reports in criminal matters are issued by an institution of the prosecution service rather than an independent body or the judiciary.
That institutional position is part of how the report is weighed, and a US reader should know it. We name the institute and the prosecution service.
Peritos in civil matters
In civil matters the court appoints a perito, with the parties able to propose and object, and the appointment resolution names the points to be examined.
We translate the resolution with the report, because it defines what the expert was permitted to address.
Altitude, and the medical reports
Forensic medical reports from La Paz, El Alto and Potosí are written for a population living at very high altitude, so haematological reference values differ from US ones.
A US reader comparing a Bolivian blood result against US ranges misreads it. We reproduce the laboratory's own reference range where the report prints it.
The cédula suffix, and the colegio
Experts are identified by cédula, frequently with a departmental suffix — LP, CB, SC — which is part of the identifier, and by their professional college registration.
Indigenous language interpretation may be recorded in a forensic examination, and we translate that note. See our Spanish page.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page of up to 250 words, and it comes back typically within 24 hours as a PDF formatted to mirror the original, with a signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead. Marginal annotations are translated in place, in the margin, and every seal, stamp and registry endorsement is translated with the text. See how we translate and certified versus standard.
