The Estonian passport and the alien's passport
Estonian passports are issued by the Police and Border Guard Board and are valid for up to ten years; from age 12 they carry the holder's fingerprints. Residents of Estonia who are not citizens and cannot get a travel document from another country may hold an alien's passport instead, which for adults is also valid for up to ten years. The two say different things about citizenship, so we translate the document title exactly.
US agencies usually read the English entries on a passport directly; a translation is needed for Estonian-only pages, stamps, endorsements and handwritten notes. We translate every such page and copy the passport number and personal identification code exactly. A photo or scan of the relevant pages is enough; we do not need the passport itself. An older passport from another country is a separate document, and we translate it on its own. See the Estonian ID card page.
Names and spelling
Under the Names Act, personal names in Estonian documents are written in Estonian-Latin letters, and names from non-Latin scripts are transcribed under official rules. A Russian name, for example, may be spelled differently in an Estonian passport than in a Russian document or an older Soviet one. The passport spelling is the one most US agencies will match, and we follow it on request across all your translations.
Diacritics such as õ, ä, ö and ü are part of the name and we keep them. If a name changed by marriage or by a name entry, the old passport and the new one will differ; see the Estonian name change page. Where an older document spells the name without them, we keep each spelling as printed and can explain the difference in a translator's note. See also our Estonian page and our Russian 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 an alien's passport the same as an Estonian passport?
No. It is issued to non-citizen residents who cannot get another travel document. We translate the title exactly.
Most of my passport is already in English.
We translate the parts that are not, such as stamps, endorsements and Estonian-only text.
Can you match the spelling to my passport?
Yes. Tell us and we use the passport spelling throughout.
