Relevé de compte, RIB and IBAN
A French bank statement (relevé de compte) shows the account holder, the period, the opening and closing balances and each transaction with its date and value date. It also carries the account identifiers. A French IBAN has 27 characters: FR, two check digits, then the national account details (the RIB), made of a 5-digit bank code, a 5-digit branch code (code guichet), an 11-character account number and a 2-digit RIB key.
We copy every identifier character by character, because one wrong digit makes the statement unusable for a bank or an officer checking the account. Amounts keep the French notation explained: a comma for decimals and a space for thousands, so 1 234,56 € is one thousand two hundred thirty-four euros and fifty-six cents. Dates are day-month-year, so 03/04 is 3 April, and the translation writes the month out to avoid confusion.
What a US officer looks for
Statements are typically used as proof of funds for a student or investor visa, or of income and residence. Labels such as débit, crédit, virement (transfer), prélèvement (direct debit) and CB (card payment) are translated so the flows are clear, and merchant names stay as printed. Where money moves between your own accounts, the IBANs on both sides let an officer follow it, so they are never shortened or masked by us; any masking is the bank's own, reproduced as printed.
A downloaded PDF is fine; we translate every page you send, including the bank's legal footer. If the office wants a signed balance letter instead of statements, that letter is a separate document and we translate it too. Several months of statements are often requested together; each month stays a separate document in the translation, in date order. See the general bank statement page, the Senegalese and Haitian pages and our French 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 you convert euros to dollars?
No. Amounts stay in euros as printed; the receiving office applies its own rate.
What do CB and prélèvement mean?
Card payment and direct debit. Each label is translated in place.
My statement came from my online banking.
That is fine. We translate the PDF in full, with the IBAN copied exactly.
