What is a birth certificate?
A birth certificate is a fundamental document certifying a person’s identity from birth. It includes key information such as full name, date and place of birth, and parents’ details. It is issued by an official authority, generally the civil registry of the country of origin, and is required for a wide variety of procedures.
Among the most common uses of a birth certificate are obtaining identity documents, school enrollment, passport applications, and other administrative procedures. It is also essential in processes such as marriage, adoption, or nationality validation.
Our certified translation allows this document to be submitted in another language while preserving its essential content and format.

Does a birth certificate need an apostille or legalization?
When the certified translation of a birth certificate and certain other documents is submitted abroad, depending on the destination country, an apostille or legalization may be required. The apostille validates the authenticity of public documents, such as birth certificates, for use in countries that are party to the Hague Convention.
At Certradis we guide you through the steps needed to ensure your certified translation meets all legal requirements. If you need an apostille, you must contact the issuing authority of the document in question. It is advisable to confirm the specific requirements with the entity requesting the documentation.
Of course, we also offer a certified translation service for your apostille, if your procedure requires it.
