Certified by a sworn notary and registered
A Latvian power of attorney (pilnvara) for property or legal matters is usually certified by a sworn notary (zvērināts notārs). Powers certified since 1 July 2018 are entered in a register kept by the notaries, and anyone identified can check online whether one was issued and whether it has been revoked, using its date, number and notary. Revocations are also published in the official gazette, Latvijas Vēstnesis.
A power can also be issued and certified remotely by video call with any Latvian notary through the notaries' online portal. The translation covers the whole document: the powers granted, both parties' names and personal identity numbers, the term, and the notary's certification with its register number.
Using it in the US
A Latvian power of attorney usually comes into a US file when a relative acts for you in Latvia, or when a US bank or court needs to see who may act for someone there. Since 1 July 2019 Latvian sworn notaries also issue apostilles; a US court may ask for one, USCIS does not. See apostilles and translation.
A translation shows the document as of its date; whether it is still in force is for the receiving office to check. Property sales are a common reason; see the Latvian property deed 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
How can a US office check my power of attorney?
Powers certified since July 2018 can be checked in the Latvian notaries' register. We translate the details it needs.
It was certified remotely by video.
Remote certification is a valid notarial act in Latvia. We translate it like a paper one.
Does it need an apostille?
Not for USCIS. A court or bank may ask; Latvian sworn notaries issue it.
