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

Read every question →

How long does a certified driver's license translation take?

Most certified driver's license translations are completed within 24–48 hours. Expedited service is available for an additional fee when you're working against a DMV appointment or filing deadline.

Will my translated driver's license be accepted by the DMV or USCIS?

Yes. Every translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy that meets USCIS requirements under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) and is accepted by DMV offices and most government agencies. 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 driver's license?

Most DMV offices and USCIS only require a certified translation, not a notarized one. Some states, employers, or foreign agencies require notarization. We can help you confirm which one your situation needs before you order.

Who certifies a driver's license 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 license. This certification is accepted by DMV offices, USCIS, and most government agencies.

Can you translate a driver's license from any language?

Yes. We work with over 100 languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Mandarin, Vietnamese, French, Russian, and Hindi. Every translation is completed by a native speaker familiar with government-issued identity and licensing documents.

What information is included in a certified driver's license translation?

The translation preserves every detail from the original license, including full name, date of birth, license number, class/category, issue and expiration dates, and any restrictions or endorsements, formatted to mirror the layout of the original card.

Do you translate driver's licenses for DMV conversion and relocation abroad?

Yes. We regularly translate driver's licenses for DMV license conversion, relocation or employment abroad, car rentals, and identity verification for government and financial institutions.

How much does a driver's license translation cost?

Standard certified translation is $18 per page. Expedited (rush) translation is $28 per page. Notarization is available as an add-on for $9 per document.
