What the 2019 Construction Code requires

Residential leases in Côte d'Ivoire are governed by the Construction and Housing Code, Law 2019-576. The lease must be in writing and registered with the tax administration, and the landlord gives the tenant a copy of the registration. The landlord may not demand more than two months' rent in advance, and a security deposit may not exceed two months' rent, with a written inventory of the premises at the start and the end.

The code also lets either party seek a rent review every three years, with three months' notice, and requires the landlord to give a receipt for each payment (quittance). A lease, its registration stamp and rent receipts are therefore all common documents. So is the inventory report. We translate each in full, amounts in FCFA as printed. See our French page.

Leases as proof in a US file

A US office may ask for an Ivorian lease as proof of past residence, of a shared home in a marriage case, or of income from property. The registration stamp and the receipts help show the lease was real and in force. We translate the parties, the address, the term, the rent, the deposit, the special clauses and every stamp.

Leases signed through an agency are also common; the code makes using an agency optional and requires agencies to be approved, and we translate the agency's details as printed. Inventory reports at the start and end of a tenancy are translated as well. If the property is owned rather than rented, see the property deed page. For a commercial lease or a company's premises, see the articles of incorporation page and the general contract translation 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.
