Latvian re-spells foreign names, including yours

Latvian grammar requires names to take Latvian endings, so a foreign name written in a Latvian document is adapted: John Smith appears as Džons Smits, Michael as Maikls. It is not a mistake and it is not optional — it is how the language and the registry work. It does mean that a Latvian document and a foreign passport can carry visibly different spellings of the same person.

Latvian passports now carry the original-language form as well, usually on a separate page. If yours does, send that page too: it is the document that ties the two spellings together, and translating it alongside saves the question being asked later.

Latvian documents we translate

Civil records — dzimšanas apliecība, laulības apliecība, miršanas apliecība — are issued by the registry office and carry the personas kods, reproduced exactly. Records from the Soviet period are frequently in Russian, and we translate those too.

We also handle diplomas and transcripts, criminal record certificates and court decisions. The long marks and soft signs — ā, ē, ī, ū, č, ģ, ķ, ļ, ņ, š, ž — are kept as issued.

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 a page is up to 250 words.

A standard translation is for business or personal use where certification is not needed, such as CVs, client intake forms or marketing material, and is billed at the same $24.95 per page of up to 250 words.

Frequently asked questions

My name is spelled differently in my Latvian documents than in my passport.

That is the Latvian adaptation of foreign names. If your passport has the original-form page, send it: it links the two spellings and we translate it with the rest.

My older certificate is in Russian.

Common for Soviet-era records. We translate Russian and Latvian entries alike.

Is the personas kods translated?

Reproduced exactly as printed.
