Certified, Notarized, Sworn — What Do You Actually Need?
These terms get used interchangeably, but they aren't the same thing, and the receiving agency usually cares about the difference:
- Certified translation
- A signed Certificate of Accuracy from the translator attesting the translation is complete and accurate. This is what USCIS, most U.S. courts, and most U.S. government agencies require.
- Notarized translation
- A notary public witnesses the translator sign the Certificate of Accuracy and applies their official seal. Notarization verifies the identity of the signer, not the accuracy of the translation. Some courts, banks, and foreign consulates specifically require this.
- Sworn translation
- In many European and Latin American countries, only a translator who has taken an oath before a court is authorized to produce a legally valid translation. If your document is going to a country outside the U.S., check whether it requires a sworn translator rather than a U.S.-style certified translation.
Most visa offices, universities, and USCIS accept a certified translation with no notarization required. Some banks, lenders, or foreign agencies require notarization instead, so confirm with the receiving party before you order.
Who Needs a Certified Bank Statement Translation

The translation matched our birth certificate exactly, and it was accepted by USCIS on the first try. Turnaround was faster than I expected.

Questions & Answers
Frequently asked questions.
The questions people ask before ordering a bank statement translation.
How long does a certified bank statement translation take?
Most certified bank statement translations are completed within 24–48 hours. Expedited and same-day delivery are available for an additional fee when you're working against a visa or closing deadline.
Will my translated bank statement be accepted by USCIS or a visa office?
Yes. Every translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy that meets USCIS requirements under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) and is accepted by consulates, universities, and government agencies as proof of funds. If it's ever rejected on accuracy grounds, we'll correct it at no additional cost.
Do I need a notarized translation or a certified translation of my bank statement?
Most visa offices, universities, and USCIS only require a certified translation, not a notarized one. Some banks, lenders, or foreign agencies require notarization. Tell us where it's going and we'll confirm which one you need before you order.
Can I translate my own bank statement, or have a bilingual friend do it?
No. Most agencies, including USCIS and visa offices, require the translator to be a disinterested third party, not you, a relative, or a friend, even if they're fluent. A self-translation is typically rejected.
Do you translate every transaction line, or just the summary balances?
We translate everything on the page: transaction descriptions, dates, balances, fees, and bank letterhead or seals. We don't summarize or omit line items, since agencies often want the full transaction history intact.
Can you add or correct information that's missing or wrong on the original statement?
No. A certified translation must be a complete, accurate rendering of the original document exactly as issued by the bank. If there's an error on the statement, that needs to be corrected by your bank first.
Who certifies a bank statement translation?
A professional translator completes the translation and signs a Certificate of Accuracy attesting that it is a complete and accurate rendering of the original statement. This certification is accepted by USCIS, consulates, universities, and most financial institutions.
Do you translate bank statements for student visas, work visas, or real estate purchases?
Yes. We regularly translate bank statements used as proof of funds for student visa applications, work visa filings, real estate purchases, and immigration affidavits of support.
