Brazilian marriage certificate translation

Yes. Your marriage certificate translation comes with a signed Certificate of Accuracy that meets 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), and USCIS does not require notarization or an ATA-certified translator for it. If USCIS rejects your translation because of our work, we correct and redeliver it free within 24 hours. If the corrected translation is still not accepted because of our work, we refund your order in full.

Yes, we translate every averbação on the certificate, whether it records a divorce, an annulment, or a later correction, with the dates and registry details exactly as written. We do the complete document, including stamps, seals, marginal notes, and the back side, so the English page matches the Portuguese one. It is priced as one document at $19 a page for up to 250 words, delivered within 24 hours, and you see the exact total before you pay.

Both names, exactly as the certificate records them. Where your certidão de casamento lists the name you had before the marriage and the name you took after it, we translate both fields as written instead of picking one. That keeps the maiden name on your Brazilian birth certificate readable next to the married name on the rest of your filing. If your other documents spell a name differently, add a note when you upload.

In full, in the wording the certificate actually uses, not shortened to a label. Comunhao parcial de bens, comunhao universal de bens, and separacao de bens each say something different, and any pacto antenupcial noted alongside them is translated too. Ivy is a native Portuguese speaker and she signs the certification herself.

You do not need a tradução juramentada, and your spouse does not have to be the one who signs the certification. A sworn translation is a different thing from what USCIS wants, which is a complete English translation with a signed Certificate of Accuracy. Ivy signs ours herself at $19 a page, so the certification on the document that proves your marriage is not coming from the petitioner.

Yes. If your certidão de casamento is in Portuguese, USCIS requires a complete English translation with a signed Certificate of Accuracy, under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). Complete covers every stamp, seal, and marginal note, including any averbação in the margin. A certified translation is $19 a page, back within 24 hours.

You can do the translating, but the certification is where self-service breaks down. USCIS wants a signed statement the officer can take at face value, and a signature from a party to the marriage being proven invites the extra look that turns into an RFE. The honest tradeoffs are in can I translate my own document for USCIS; our version is $19 a page with the Certificate of Accuracy signed by an independent translator.
