Usually already in English
South African banks issue statements, account confirmation letters and investment certificates in English, with amounts in rand (ZAR, written R). A statement wholly in English needs no translation for USCIS, a consulate or a US bank.
Translation comes in with older documents: statements, letters and investment records from banks and building societies that corresponded in Afrikaans with Afrikaans-speaking customers. Those are translated in full and the figures carried over exactly. See our Afrikaans page.
What a sponsor's file needs
For an affidavit of support or a visa application, US offices look for the account holder, the account number, the period and the balance. A bank-stamped statement in English is submitted as it is; a translation adds nothing to an English document.
For land held as an asset, see our title deed page; for a business, our company documents 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.
Frequently asked questions
My bank statement is in English. Do I need a translation?
No. An English statement can be submitted as it is.
Do you convert rand to dollars?
No. The translation keeps the amounts in rand as shown. Conversion is for you or the receiving office.
My old investment certificate is in Afrikaans.
We translate it in full and carry over every figure exactly.
