Modern RENAP certificates and older paper certificates
Guatemalan birth certificates are issued through RENAP, the Registro Nacional de las Personas. There are two broad kinds in circulation.
Modern certificates are printed from RENAP's system and can include photographs. Older certificates on security paper carry a red serial number, a security code and a printed verification block. Both are translated with those security features carried over.
Security features are part of the translation
The serial number, security code and verification block are how a Guatemalan certificate is authenticated. They are reproduced in the translation, rather than omitted as decoration.
What USCIS requires
The requirement is the same for every country: 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 on your birth certificate is part of the document, so every one is translated.
For general guidance on certificates from any country, see birth certificate translation and our USCIS certified translation 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 a page is up to 250 words.
A standard translation is for business or personal use where certification is not needed, such as CVs, client intake forms or marketing material, and is billed at $0.10 per word.

Do you include the serial number and security code?
Yes. They are part of the document and are carried into the translation.
My certificate has photographs. Is that a problem?
