No separation that keeps the marriage
Yemeni law has no legal separation in the US sense. Under Article 43 of the Personal Status Law No. 20 of 1992 a marriage ends by court dissolution (فسخ), by talaq or by death. Faskh, granted only by a court, ends the marriage on grounds such as a husband's failure to maintain his wife, his absence for a year (two if he left maintenance), a prison sentence of three years or more, or the wife's aversion (الكراهية), and counts as an irrevocable separation.
The English word separation can therefore mislead. If your Yemeni document says فسخ or تفريق, it records the end of the marriage, and we translate the term literally with, where helpful, a translator's note saying so. The judgment is translated with its case number, the court's seal and every date. Faskh is not counted as one of the husband's talaqs, and the translation keeps that distinction. See our Arabic page.
The waiting period after a revocable divorce
The nearest Yemeni equivalent to a period of separation is the waiting period (العدة) after a revocable talaq. During it the husband may take his wife back by word or act, without her consent and without a new contract; a return by word must be witnessed. Once the waiting period ends without a return, the divorce becomes irrevocable. A document recording a revocable divorce or a return therefore needs its dates translated exactly.
If you are separated in fact but no Yemeni court or amin has recorded anything, there may be nothing Yemeni to translate; US courts handle separation under their own law, and the marriage contract may be the only Yemeni document they need. If a Yemeni document does exist, send it in full, with every stamp. See the Yemeni divorce certificate and Yemeni marriage certificate 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.

We divorced revocably and then reconciled.
Send both documents; we translate each with its dates so the sequence is clear.
Does a US legal separation need a Yemeni document?
