The certificado de matrícula
In Cabo Verde the vehicle's registration document is the certificado de matrícula, still widely called the livrete. The 2020 Vehicle Regulation (Decreto-Regulamentar 7/2020) sets its procedure and forms and requires certain facts to be noted on it: that a vehicle was rebuilt, the remark "Recuperado de salvado" for a vehicle recovered from a write-off, and window film fitted by the manufacturer. Modifications to a vehicle's characteristics need prior authorisation from the Direção-Geral dos Transportes Rodoviários (DGTR).
We translate the certificate field by field: registration number, make, model, chassis or VIN number, engine, fuel, weights, seats, dates and the owner's details, together with every annotation and stamp. The VIN and registration number are copied character by character; the regulation forbids altering a chassis number, so any discrepancy matters and is flagged, never corrected. Stamps from inspections and from transfers of ownership are translated as well.
Importing or selling a vehicle
A US buyer, insurer or customs broker usually needs the registration document together with proof of ownership, such as an invoice or a bill of sale, and sometimes a deregistration record. We translate each document in full; see the vehicle import documents and bill of sale pages. Ask the receiving office which documents it needs before shipping a vehicle, because requirements vary by state.
Remarks such as rebuilt or recovered from salvage are translated literally, because they affect how a vehicle can be titled in a US state. Dates of first registration and of each inspection are translated as printed. The owner's name should match the passport; if it differs, we translate as printed and note it. See the Cape Verdean driving licence page and our Portuguese 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
Is the livrete the same as a title?
It is the registration document. Ownership may also be shown by an invoice or bill of sale; we translate whichever you have.
My certificate says Recuperado de salvado.
It means recovered from salvage. We translate the remark literally; it can matter for a US title.
Do you correct a wrong VIN?
No. We copy it exactly as printed and flag any mismatch.
