Use cases
Documents to translate, by what you need them for
Most situations ask for the same core: proof of identity and family status (birth, marriage and divorce certificates), a police clearance certificate for visas and residency, and proof of income or funds (payslips, bank statements, tax assessments). Immigration offices usually want a certified translation, often with an apostille on public documents; banks, landlords and employers usually accept a plain one.
Pick your situation for its checklist, then translate each document in the same layout. Updated November 5, 2026.
