The municipality (gemeente), and registered partnership
A Dutch marriage certificate is an extract (akte van huwelijk) issued by the gemeente where the marriage took place, so the issuing authority printed on it is a municipality rather than a national office.
The Netherlands also has geregistreerd partnerschap, registered partnership, which produces a different document with different legal effects. It is not a marriage and the translation does not call it one — see our Dutch birth certificate page.
Tussenvoegsels, and international extracts
Dutch surnames frequently carry a particle — van, de, van der, ten — which is part of the legal name; dropping it changes the name. Capitalisation and filing rules differ between the Netherlands and Belgium, so Dutch and Belgian documents disagree by design. We reproduce the name exactly as written and explain the convention.
A multilingual international extract is available under a 1976 convention. It serves the countries that signed it and the United States did not, so it does not replace a certified English translation for USCIS. See our Dutch 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
We have a registered partnership, not a marriage.
It is a different legal status and a different document. We translate it accurately as a registered partnership rather than calling it a marriage.
Is "van der" part of my surname?
Yes, and we never drop it. We reproduce it exactly as written.
I have an international extract.
We translate it, but it does not remove the need for a certified English translation for a US office.
