Séparation de corps
Ivorian law has long offered legal separation (séparation de corps) alongside divorce. Under the 1998 text, a court could pronounce either one on the same grounds: adultery, cruelty or serious insults, a conviction harming the family's honour, abandonment, or the spouses' joint request after at least two years of marriage. Law 2022-793 of 13 October 2022 now governs both.
Legal separation ends the duty to live together but not the marriage, so neither spouse can remarry. It does end community of property: the 2019 marriage law lists separation as one of the events that dissolve the community. A separation judgment therefore matters for property questions and for showing that a couple lived apart. Like a divorce, it is a court judgment, never a registry certificate. See our French page.
Translating the judgment
The separation judgment comes from the court of first instance, like a divorce decree, and states the court, the parties, the grounds or the approved agreement, and the orders on residence, children and property. We translate it in full and render séparation de corps as legal separation, never as divorce, because a US officer needs to know the marriage still exists.
If a divorce later followed, both judgments belong in the file. The court clerk's office keeps the judgments and issues further copies, so ask for a recent one if yours is old or incomplete, and send every page, including the last one with the seal. A marriage record with its margin notes shows the history. See the marriage certificate page and our court 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.
