Written leases under the Rent Law
Leases of homes in Iraq are governed by the Rent Law No. 87 of 1979, as amended. It covers buildings let as homes to Iraqis within the municipalities and requires the landlord and the tenant to put the lease in writing. A copy must be filed within 30 days with the real estate tax office and the information office, or with the police station where there is no such office. Leases to non-Iraqis fall under the Civil Code instead.
If the lease sets no duration, the law treats it as a lease for one year. A lease normally names the landlord and tenant, the property, the rent and how it is paid, and the term. We translate every clause, every signature block and any endorsement showing the lease was filed, and if the lease was handwritten on a printed form, both the form and the handwriting are translated.
Using an Iraqi lease in the US
In a US file an Iraqi lease usually proves where someone lived, for example in an asylum or refugee case or an immigrant visa application, or it supports a claim of rental income. We translate the address exactly as written, with the governorate, district and neighbourhood, because that is what links the lease to the person's other documents. Amounts stay in the currency printed.
Names are translated in the order printed and spelled as in the passport, and the signatures and any witnesses are marked where they appear. If you also need the owner's title, translate the deed with the lease. A lease from the Kurdistan Region may be written in Kurdish; see our Sorani Kurdish page. See also the Iraqi property deed page, the general lease agreement translation page and our Arabic 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.
