The civil record, not the mosque certificate
A Guinean marriage certificate is the acte de mariage drawn up by the civil registrar (officier d'état civil) of the commune, or an extract from it. Many couples marry first at the mosque, at church or in a family ceremony. In September 2026 the minister in charge of civil status reminded registrars that certificates issued in mosques are not recognised by the courts as marriage records, and that couples must have the union transcribed at the commune.
For a US petition, the document to translate is therefore the civil record or the transcription of the religious marriage. If you also hold the religious certificate, we can translate it as supporting evidence, but ask the receiving office what it accepts. See our marriage green card page.
Options, titles and later changes
Under the 2019 Civil Code (Law L/2019/035/AN) monogamy is the rule, but a husband may declare a polygamy option before the registrar when he marries. If your record or its margin mentions the option, we translate the wording exactly; what it means for your case is a question for the receiving office or a lawyer.
Older certificates sometimes add the titles Elhadj or Hadja to a spouse's name. We keep them as printed and mark them as titles. All of it is in French — see our French page — and if the marriage later ended, our Guinean divorce certificate 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
We only married at the mosque. Is that certificate enough?
In Guinea itself, the courts do not treat it as a marriage record; the union has to be transcribed at the commune. We translate whichever document you have, but check with the receiving office first.
Does it need an apostille?
Guinea is not a party to the Apostille Convention, so there is no apostille; documents are legalised by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Conakry. USCIS requires neither. See apostille and translation.
My certificate says Republic of Guinea. Could it be confused with Guinea-Bissau?
Guinea-Bissau issues its records in Portuguese. We name the issuing country exactly as printed, République de Guinée, so there is no confusion.
