Records from the SNS
Most Portuguese medical records come from the national health service (Serviço Nacional de Saúde, SNS), where each patient is identified by the SNS user number printed on the back of the Citizen Card. Patients can see the health information collected at SNS institutions in the personal area of the SNS 24 portal, logging in with the Citizen Card, the Chave Móvel Digital or the user number; prescriptions and test results are available there.
A file for a US doctor, insurer or immigration case usually mixes several kinds of document: discharge summaries, specialist reports (relatórios médicos), test results, prescriptions and certificates. Each is translated in full, including the header with the hospital or health centre, the user number, dates, and the doctor's name and professional number. Printouts from the portal are translated the same way.
Terms, units and abbreviations
Medicines appear under Portuguese brand names or their generic names, doses in metric units and dates in day-month-year order. We keep drug names as printed rather than substitute a US brand, keep units and reference ranges exactly, and translate abbreviations where their meaning is clear, marking any we cannot resolve rather than guess. Handwritten notes are translated where legible and marked where not.
Lab results often come from private laboratories or clinics rather than SNS hospitals; they are translated the same way, with the laboratory's details. If the records support a disability claim, see the Portuguese disability certificate page; for court-ordered examinations see the Portuguese expert report page. For Brazil see the Brazilian medical records page, and see our Portuguese 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.
