The land register, not the contract, makes you owner
In Estonia ownership of real estate passes when the transfer is entered in the land register (kinnistusraamat), not when the contract is signed. The register is kept by the land registry department of Tartu County Court. Both the sale contract and the real right contract transferring ownership must be authenticated by a notary, and the notary checks the register before authenticating.
So the proof of ownership is an extract from the land register, and the notarial contract shows how the property was acquired. A US lender, court or agency may want one or both. We translate each in full, with the register part number, cadastral details and notarial registry numbers copied exactly. A photo or scan is enough. See the Estonian power of attorney page.
Reading a register extract
Each property has a register part divided into four sections: its composition (location, purpose and area), the owner or owners, encumbrances and restrictions other than mortgages, and mortgages. Joint or common ownership shows in the owner section, and spouses' shares may depend on their marital property regime. We keep the four-part layout so a reader can find each entry. We translate every entry in each section that the extract shows.
Amounts in older entries may be in kroons, Estonia's currency before 2011; we keep them as printed. For the use of property in a divorce or estate, see court translations and the Estonian divorce decree page. Property acquired by inheritance usually also needs the succession documents, which we translate separately. A photo or scan of each document is enough. See our Estonian 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.
