Names without surnames, and honorifics that are not names

Burmese names have no family name. A person's name is a sequence of syllables that is theirs alone, not shared with parents or siblings, which means a US form asking for a surname has nowhere correct to put anything — and it means two siblings' documents look unrelated.

Burmese names also carry honorifics that are not part of the name: U and Daw for older men and women, Ko and Ma for younger. A translation that folds "U" into the given name creates a name the person does not have. We reproduce the name as written and identify the honorific as an honorific.

Script, and the household list

Burmese is written in its own script, and documents commonly travel with a household registration list that establishes who lives together — which is frequently what an office needs to show a family relationship, rather than the birth certificate alone.

Burmese digits differ from Western ones and are given in Western digits so the dates and numbers are usable. See our Burmese 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.

Frequently asked questions

I have no surname. What goes on the form?

That is a question for the office or your attorney, not for a translator. We reproduce your name exactly as the document gives it and make the structure explicit, so nobody invents a surname on your behalf.

Is "U" part of my father's name?

No, it is an honorific for an older man. We identify it as one rather than folding it into the name.

Do you translate the household list too?

Yes, and it is often the document that actually establishes the relationship an office is asking about.
