The summary extract (estratto per riassunto) and the full copy (copia integrale)
An Italian comune issues more than one kind of birth document and they do not carry the same information. The estratto per riassunto summarises the record. The copia integrale — the full copy — reproduces the entry and every annotation made to it since: a marriage, a divorce, a citizenship acquisition, a correction.
For citizenship by descent and for anything where the history matters, the full copy is the one to order. Ask which the office wants before paying for the wrong one — see our Italian page.
Multilingual extracts, and why they do not remove the translation
Italy can issue a multilingual extract under a 1976 convention on civil status records. It is designed for use between the countries that signed it, and the United States did not, so it does not replace a certified English translation for USCIS and it is not worth paying extra for on that basis. If you already hold one, we translate it like any other document.
Older records are handwritten and narrative, reciting who appeared before the registrar and what was declared. They are translated as the narrative they are rather than reorganised into a form the original never had.
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
Which copy do I need for citizenship by descent?
The copia integrale. The summary extract does not carry the annotations, which is usually the point.
I have a multilingual extract. Do I still need a translation?
For a US office, yes. Those forms are designed for the countries that signed the convention and the United States is not one of them.
My record is handwritten and narrative.
Ordinary for older entries. We translate it as written rather than restructuring it.
