Certified Lebanese Medical Records Translation

eVerbary translates your Lebanese medical records into English for $24.95 per page with no word cap, by a professional human translator, with a signed certification. Most orders are delivered within a few hours. Accepted by USCIS and by US universities, colleges and schools, or your money back.

Hospital records and their languages

Lebanese medical records may be in Arabic, French or English, or a mix of them, with drug names and test values in Latin script. For a US doctor, insurer or court, everything that is not in English must be translated, and abbreviations and handwritten notes have to be read in the context of the record. We translate diagnoses, procedures, results and dates exactly, and keep the original units and reference ranges.

If the record is used for immigration, for example to explain a medical waiver or a vaccination history, translate the pages the office asked for, complete. A discharge summary, operative report and laboratory results are different documents and are labelled as such. Dates are kept as printed and clarified where day and month could be confused. See our general medical records translation page, our Arabic page and our French page.

Forensic reports and disability files

A death, injury or assault that went to court may also have a forensic medical report. The Ministry of Justice has a Forensic Medicine and Criminal Evidence Service and keeps a directory of forensic doctors; their reports are legal documents and are translated in full, with the doctor's name, the court reference and the conclusions. See the Lebanese expert report page.

For a disability claim, the medical file often goes together with the Personal Disability Card issued by the Ministry of Social Affairs; see the Lebanese disability card page. Medical translation is about precision: we do not summarise, we do not interpret findings, and where a word cannot be read we say so in a note rather than guess. Doctors' stamps, signatures and hospital letterheads are translated too.

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.
