Notary public, court president, ministries
In Jordan powers of attorney are made before the notary public at the courts, and the Ministry of Justice distinguishes general and special powers of attorney. For use outside Jordan a power of attorney needs the signature of the notary public and of the president of the court, and is then authenticated by the Ministry of Justice representative at the documents certification centre of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
Jordan is not a party to the Apostille Convention, so the chain then continues to the destination country's embassy or ministry, and sometimes back to a Jordanian embassy. The ministry's own advice is to have a document translated and the translation certified in Jordan before it leaves, because arranging this through an embassy abroad takes longer. A translation goes through the same steps; the Ministry of Justice certifies only the translator's signature and date, and the translator remains responsible for accuracy. See our Arabic page.
What the translation must show
A power of attorney is read clause by clause, so we translate the powers exactly as worded, whether general or limited to a named property, account or case. If the agent may sell, mortgage, collect money or sign before a court, each of those powers is translated as a separate item, as in the original. Names of principal and agent keep the four-part Jordanian order with national numbers reproduced exactly. Every certification stamp along the chain is translated, in the order it appears.
A US bank, title company or court decides whether it accepts a Jordanian power of attorney; some insist on their own form. A power of attorney made in the US for use in Jordan follows the reverse route: authentication through an embassy, then the Ministries of Foreign Affairs and Justice in Amman. Ask before you sign one in Jordan. If the power concerns land, see the Jordanian property deed page, and for a company the Jordanian company documents 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
Can Jordan apostille my power of attorney?
No. Jordan is not in the Apostille Convention; it uses the ministry certification chain.
Is my power of attorney general or special?
The document says which. We translate the wording exactly.
Does the translation need to be certified in Jordan too?
Only if the receiving office asks. For US use, our signed certification is what USCIS expects.
