Issued by General Security
Lebanese passports are issued by the General Directorate of General Security, at its offices and regional bureaus in Lebanon and, for replacements, at Lebanese embassies and consulates abroad. They are biometric, with the cedar as a dry seal on the cover. The colour tells you the type: dark blue for ordinary passports, red for diplomatic, grey for service and green for special passports. General Security also issues a light blue biometric travel document for Palestinian refugees and a brown laissez-passer for stateless persons.
The data page already has Latin-script fields, so it rarely needs translating. What usually does are the Arabic entries, endorsements and stamps on other pages, and visas or entry stamps from other countries. USCIS asks for a complete translation of any foreign-language page you submit, so translate every page in your copy that carries Arabic or French text. See the general passport translation page.
The passport spelling is the reference
The Latin spelling of your name in the passport is the one every other translation should follow. Lebanese civil documents give names in Arabic only, and the same name is romanised in different ways across school, church and bank papers (Haddad, Hadad, Al Haddad). When we translate your birth certificate, diplomas and other papers, we use the passport spelling on request and keep the original visible.
If the passport itself has an error, General Security must correct it, not the translator. The travel document for Palestinian refugees is a different document from a Lebanese passport and does not prove Lebanese nationality; we translate it under its own title. Entry and exit stamps are translated with their dates and places, which matter when an officer reconstructs your travel history. See the Lebanese identity card page and our Arabic 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 passport data page is already in English.
That page usually needs no translation. Arabic stamps and notes on other pages do.
I hold the light blue travel document.
That is the document for Palestinian refugees. We translate it under its own name.
My diploma spells my surname differently.
Very common. We follow your passport spelling on request and keep the original visible.
