Usually no civil record exists

Somalia has had no functioning civil registration system since 1991, so divorces of that whole period generally produced no civil record. A divorce concluded as a talaq before a sheikh may be documented religiously or not at all.

What these files carry instead is declarations from the parties and witnesses, letters from elders or community organisations, consular documents, or camp records. We translate all of them. See our Somali marriage certificate page.

Names without surnames

A Somali name is given name, father's name and grandfather's name rather than a family surname, so former spouses share nothing in their names and a US form expecting a common surname has nowhere to put anything.

Documents may be in Somali, Arabic, Italian or English. See our Somali and Arabic pages.

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.
