A US judgment written in Spanish
Puerto Rico is part of the United States and a Puerto Rican divorce is granted by a Puerto Rican court — a domestic US judgment, written in Spanish. That is why a mainland office that cannot read it asks for a translation of a document it will then treat as domestic.
The divorce is recorded with the Registro Demográfico of the Department of Health, and an office frequently wants a current marriage or divorce record alongside the judgment. See our Puerto Rican marriage certificate page.
Two surnames
Puerto Rican records carry two surnames and both are part of the legal name; dropping the second is how a person stops matching their own file.
See our Spanish 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 a page is up to 250 words.
A standard translation is for business or personal use where certification is not needed, such as CVs, client intake forms or marketing material, and is billed at the same $24.95 per page of up to 250 words.
Frequently asked questions
Puerto Rico is part of the US. Why a translation?
Because the judgment is in Spanish. The office will treat it as domestic and still needs to read it.
Do I need the Registro Demográfico record too?
Frequently. Ask the office.
Are both surnames kept?
Both, in the order given.
