The vaccination card (carné de vacunación)
Salvadoran childhood immunisation is recorded on a carné de vacunación stamped at the MINSAL unit or health promotion team that gave each dose.
El Salvador gives BCG at birth and runs a programme with high recorded coverage. The card is what an I-693 needs, and applicants routinely send hospital paperwork instead.
MINSAL, ISSS and the private sector
Care runs through MINSAL facilities, the ISSS social security institute for insured workers, the teachers' and military schemes, and a private sector.
Each keeps its own record and a Salvadoran history is split. We name the institution on each document.
The DUI, and the identifiers
Salvadoran medical documents carry the DUI number, nine digits, which stays with the person across a change of name and is the cross-check across the file.
El Salvador has moved toward using the DUI as the tax identifier for individuals, so an older document may show a separate NIT. We reproduce each as printed.
The diaspora, and records requested from abroad
With a very large US diaspora, Salvadoran medical records are frequently requested by relatives on behalf of someone already in the United States, and arrive as photographs of cards and letters.
We translate what is legible and flag what is not rather than guessing at a date. Physicians sign with their medical board (junta de vigilancia) registration, which we reproduce. See our Spanish page.
Ordering, and what the certification covers
Upload the document, choose certified translation at $24.95 per page with no word cap, and it comes back typically within 24 hours as a PDF formatted to mirror the original, with a signed certificate of translation accuracy on letterhead. Marginal annotations are translated in place, in the margin, and every seal, stamp and registry endorsement is translated with the text. See how we translate and certified versus standard.
