Municipal registries and the national register
Salvadoran births are registered by the municipal civil registry where the birth occurred, and certifications are issued from that municipality's books, with the Registro Nacional de las Personas Naturales maintaining the national identity register alongside. A certification is a transcription of the book entry, so its layout follows the municipality and the period rather than a single national template.
Older certifications are narrative: a paragraph of continuous text reciting who appeared, when, and what was declared, rather than a form with labelled fields. They are translated as the narrative they are, without being rearranged into a table that the original does not contain.
Marginal notes and what they record
Later events — a recognition of paternity, a correction, a marriage — are added as marginal annotations to the original entry, and a certification issued today carries the annotations that existed when it was printed. An older certificate in a drawer will not have them. If anything has changed since yours was issued, order a fresh one before translating.
Names carry two surnames, both translated in the order given. See our Spanish page for how we keep those consistent across a file.
What USCIS requires
The requirement is the same for every country: 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 on your birth certificate is part of the document, so every one is translated.
For general guidance on certificates from any country, see birth certificate translation and our USCIS certified translation 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
My certification is one long paragraph with no fields.
That is the narrative format used for older entries. We translate it as written rather than reorganising it into a form the original does not have.
My certificate is several years old.
It shows only the annotations that existed when it was printed. If anything has changed since, order a fresh certification before translating it.
Do you translate the municipal seals and signatures?
Yes. Seals, signatures and the registry reference are part of the document.
