Two certificates: police and court
For an immigrant visa the State Department asks for two Bosnian documents. The police certificate (uvjerenje o nekažnjavanju) is issued by the Ministry of Interior through the local police department and shows whether the applicant has been convicted of any crime, with the articles of law involved. The second is a court certificate that no criminal proceedings are pending (uvjerenje da se ne vodi krivični postupak), issued by the court for the applicant's place of residence.
Both are requested in person or through a proxy with a power of attorney, and certified copies are not available, so you work from the certificate issued to you. The State Department also asks that a copy of the police certificate go to the National Visa Center. Prison records are not issued on their own; they appear only through the police check. See what the NVC asks for.
Which office and which court
Interior ministries in Bosnia and Herzegovina are organised below the state level: the cantonal ministries in the Federation, the Ministry of Interior in Republika Srpska, and the police of Brčko District. The letterhead shows which body issued your certificate, and we translate it as printed rather than reduce it to 'the police'. We also translate the search date, the articles of law cited and every stamp.
First-instance courts are called municipal courts in the Federation and basic courts in Republika Srpska and Brčko District, so the court certificate can come from either; it is the same document. Both certificates are dated, and a consulate may want them recent, so check before ordering new ones. USCIS does not require an apostille; where one is needed, the first-instance courts issue it. See our Bosnian page and the Serbian police record page.
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.
