Notary, adouls, or a legalised signature
A Moroccan power of attorney (procuration, وكالة) can take several forms: a notarial deed drawn up by a notary under Law 32-09, an act drawn up by two adouls, or a private document whose signature is legalised by the local authority (légalisation de signature). Moroccans abroad usually sign one at a Moroccan consulate. The form matters, because Moroccan law requires some transactions to be made in an authentic deed.
Under the Code of Real Rights (Law 39-08, article 4), transfers of property and other real rights must be made, on pain of nullity, in an authentic deed or in a deed of certain date drawn up by a lawyer accredited to the Court of Cassation. Ask the notary handling a property sale what form the power of attorney must take before you sign it.
Translating it in either direction
A power of attorney written in Arabic or French for use in the US is translated in full, with the agent's powers, any limits and the legalisation or notarial stamps exactly as printed. A power of attorney signed in the US for use in Morocco usually needs the opposite: a translation from English into Arabic or French, plus an apostille from the US state that issued it.
Morocco has been a party to the Apostille Convention since 14 August 2016. Notarial acts and administrative documents are apostilled by the provincial or prefectural authorities of the Ministry of the Interior, and court documents by court officials; USCIS does not require an apostille. Applications go through the national apostille portal, apostille.ma. See the Moroccan property deed page, our Arabic page and our French 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.
