Certified translation of civil status documents
Birth, marriage and death certificates and family certificates, translated for Swiss civil registry offices and authorities.
Getting married in Switzerland, registering a birth, applying for naturalisation or recording an event that happened abroad: civil registry offices often ask for a translation of foreign documents.
We translate your certificates and certify the translation. Tell us which office the document is for and we will check the required form with you, with or without an apostille.
Frequently asked questions
Will the civil registry office accept the translation?
Requirements vary from one canton and office to another. Tell us which office it is for and we will confirm the required form before we start.
Do I need an apostille?
That depends on the country that issued the document. The apostille is obtained in the country of origin; we translate the apostilled document if the office requires it.
Can I just send a photo?
Yes, for the quote. A clear photo or scan is enough. For the certification, we will tell you whether the original or a certified copy is needed.
