Van, de and van der are part of the surname, and forms lose them
Dutch surnames carry particles — van, de, van der, ter — called a tussenvoegsel. They belong to the name, but Dutch records store them in a separate field, and that is where the trouble starts: a US form with one surname box gets "van der Berg" split, reordered or dropped, and the person stops matching their own documents.
Two details that surprise people. In the Netherlands names are alphabetised under the main part, so Jan de Vries is filed under V; in Belgium the same name is filed under V for "Van" but the convention differs, so Flemish and Dutch documents are not sorted the same way. And the particle is capitalised only when the given name is absent: Peter de Vries, but De Vries on its own. We reproduce the name exactly as the document writes it and keep it identical across a file.
Dutch documents we translate
Civil records in the Netherlands come as extracts from the municipal population register (BRP) or from the civil registry. Belgium issues its own in Dutch for Flanders and Brussels, in its own formats. Suriname and the Caribbean parts of the Kingdom issue Dutch-language records too.
We also translate diplomas and transcripts, certificates of good conduct (VOG), company registry extracts and notarial deeds.
Documents from the Netherlands
Each of these pages describes the document as the Netherlands issues it — the authority, the format, the annotations and what offices in the United States ask for: Birth Certificate · Marriage Certificate · Divorce Document · Certificate of Conduct (VOG) · Academic Transcript · University Diploma · Articles of Incorporation · Bank Statement · Death Certificate · Disability Certificate · Driver's license · Expert Report · Lease Agreement · Legal Separation · Medical Records · Name Change · Identity Card (Identiteitskaart) · Passport · Paternity Acknowledgment · Power of Attorney · Property Deed · Vehicle Title.
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
How is "van der" handled in the translation?
It stays part of the surname, spelled and capitalised as your document writes it. We keep it consistent across every document in a file so the name does not split differently from one page to the next.
Do you translate Belgian documents?
Yes, for Flanders and Brussels. The formats differ from Dutch ones and the translation follows the document in front of us.
Can you translate a VOG certificate of conduct?
Yes, in full, including the statement of what was examined and the signature block.
