What the card shows
The identity card (лична карта) is issued by the Ministry of Interior and proves identity, citizenship and address. Every valid card is biometric; two fingerprints and a photograph are taken in person. The card shows the surname and name, citizenship, sex, date and place of birth, personal number, address, issue and expiry dates, issuing authority, card number and the holder's signature. It is valid for ten years, five for citizens under 27, and is issued without expiry from age 65.
The form is printed in Macedonian Cyrillic and English, and the data are written in Cyrillic and in basic Latin letters under the ICAO standard. For citizens who speak another official language, such as Albanian, the form and the data are also printed in that language, so one card can carry Macedonian, English and Albanian text. We translate every line, including the Albanian, at no extra charge.
The 13-digit personal number
The personal number (матичен број, often called EMBG) has 13 digits: day and month of birth, the last three digits of the year, a two-digit register number (41 to 49 for the regions of North Macedonia, 45 for Skopje), three digits giving sex and a serial number (000 to 499 for men, 500 to 999 for women) and a check digit. It never changes when you move, so it ties together every document in your file.
People who received their number in another Yugoslav republic before 1992 were given a new one, which is why an old record and a new card can show different numbers. We copy each digit by digit and flag any mismatch rather than correct it. The same number appears on birth, marriage and death extracts and on property certificates. See our Macedonian page, our Albanian page and the Macedonian passport 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
Do you need both sides of the card?
Yes. Each side carries different data, and both are translated.
My card is in Macedonian, Albanian and English.
That is the bilingual card for citizens who use Albanian. We translate all of it.
My old Yugoslav document shows a different personal number.
Numbers assigned in other Yugoslav republics were replaced after 1992. We translate each as printed and can add a note.
