A contract before it is a certificate

What an Egyptian couple holds is usually a marriage contract (عقد الزواج) rather than a certificate in the Western sense. For Muslim couples it is concluded before an authorised marriage officiant (ma'zoun); for Christian couples it is concluded in church under the rules of their denomination. The marriage is then recorded with the civil authorities, and a civil extract can be issued from that record.

The two documents are not the same and an office asking for "the marriage certificate" may want either. Ask which before ordering — see our Egyptian birth certificate page.

Arabic script, names and dates

Arabic names romanise several ways, and a passport, an older document and a foreign record commonly disagree. We follow the passport spelling and flag a genuine difference rather than quietly choosing one.

Where a document carries Hijri dates alongside Gregorian ones, each is converted individually rather than by an offset, and both are shown. Eastern Arabic numerals are given in Western digits so the numbers are usable — see our Arabic 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

Do I need the contract or the civil extract?

It depends on the office, and they do ask for different things. Check before ordering; we translate either, and the contract is usually the longer document.

My names are spelled differently on different documents.

Common with Arabic romanisation. We follow the passport spelling and note the difference, so the office can see it is the same person.

Are the witnesses and the dowry clause translated?

Yes. A marriage contract is translated in full, including the parties, the witnesses and every clause. Leaving a clause out would misrepresent the document.
