Recognition at the registry or before a notary
Lithuanian law on recognition of paternity (tėvystės pripažinimas) is in Articles 3.141 to 3.145 of the Civil Code. Where the parents are not married, the father can recognise the child at a civil registry office or before a notary, and since a 2022 amendment the Code also covers recognition before the child is born. A recognition made before birth can be withdrawn before the birth is registered, and it is not used if the mother marries another man first.
When the parents disagree, paternity is established by a court, and the court can order a DNA examination; the State Forensic Medicine Service carries out DNA identity tests. Whichever route is used, the result ends up in the child's birth record. That is why most US offices need the birth record extract as well as the document that established paternity.
Which documents to translate
Depending on the route, your file may hold the registry or notarial recognition document, a court judgment, an expert report, and a birth record extract issued before or after the father was added. Each is translated in full, with every date as printed, because the date paternity was recognised or established can matter to a US officer looking at the child's status.
If the court ordered a DNA test, see the Lithuanian expert report page; for the judgment itself, see court translations. We translate what each document says and do not state its legal effect in the US, which is for the agency or your attorney to decide. Where a recognition was withdrawn before the birth was registered, the withdrawal is a document in its own right and is translated too. See our Lithuanian 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.
