Issued by CSDD
Latvian driving licences (vadītāja apliecība) are issued by the Road Traffic Safety Directorate (CSDD). They are valid for ten years, except licences for C and D categories carrying an entry on professional competence, which are valid for five. A licence cannot be replaced while the holder's driver's medical certificate has expired, and drivers can check that date in the e-CSDD service.
CSDD has changed the card design over the years, and earlier licences remain valid until the expiry date printed on them. The card follows the common EU format, with numbered fields whose meaning is set across the EU, so we keep each field number with its translated content. See the Latvian identity card page if you also need ID.
Categories, dates and what a DMV reads
The back of the card lists each category (AM, A1, A2, A, B, BE, C1, C, D1, D and their trailer combinations) with the date it was granted and its expiry, plus any restriction codes. We translate each row in the same order so categories stay matched to their dates and codes.
Each US state decides whether a foreign licence counts toward a local one; a translation does not give a right to drive. Ask your DMV and see our DMV translation page. See also the Latvian vehicle title page and our Latvian 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
My C category has a shorter expiry date than my B.
Licences for C and D categories with professional competence are valid for five years. We translate each date as printed.
Will the translation let me drive in the US?
No. That is up to your state's DMV. The translation lets them read the licence.
Do you translate the codes on the back?
Yes. Each category, date and restriction code is translated in its row.
