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 immigration and school uses only require a certified translation with no notarization. Some schools, licensing boards, or foreign agencies request notarization instead, so confirm with the receiving party before you order.
Vaccination Cards and Immunization Booklets Vary by Country — We've Seen Them All
A WHO-style international yellow card, a national child health/immunization booklet, a school-issued vaccine log, and a digital clinic printout all record vaccines, dates, and lot numbers differently, and vaccine names and abbreviations vary by country's health system. Our translators are experienced with immunization records in over 100 languages and translate every entry, date, and vaccine name exactly as recorded, without reformatting the record into a different structure.
Who Needs a Certified Vaccination Record Translation
A certified vaccination record translation is required whenever you submit a foreign-language immunization record to a government agency, school, or licensing board. Common situations include:

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 vaccination record translation.
How long does a certified vaccination record translation take?
Most certified vaccination record translations are completed within 24–48 hours. Expedited and same-day delivery are available for an additional fee when you're working against a school enrollment or medical exam deadline.
Will my translated vaccination record be accepted by USCIS for the immigration medical exam (Form I-693)?
Yes. Every translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy that meets USCIS requirements under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). The civil surgeon completing your I-693 exam can use this translation as a reference alongside your original record.
Can you tell me if my vaccinations are up to date, or which ones I'm missing?
No. We translate exactly what's recorded on your document; we don't assess your vaccination status, recommend catch-up doses, or provide medical advice. Your civil surgeon, school nurse, or physician is the right person to review that.
Do I need a notarized translation or a certified translation of my vaccination record?
Most schools and USCIS only require a certified translation, not a notarized one. Some schools or licensing boards request notarization instead. Tell us where it's going and we'll confirm before you order.
Can a parent or bilingual relative translate a child's vaccination record instead?
No. Most schools and USCIS require the translator to be a disinterested third party, not a parent, relative, or friend. A family translation is typically rejected regardless of fluency.
Can you add a vaccine or date that's missing from the original record?
No. A certified translation must be a complete, accurate rendering of the original document exactly as issued. If a vaccine or date is missing, that has to be added to the original record by the issuing clinic first.
Who certifies a vaccination record 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 record. This certification is accepted by USCIS, schools, and most government offices.
Can you translate a vaccination record from any country?
Yes, from over 100 languages, including Spanish, Portuguese, Arabic, Mandarin, Vietnamese, French, Russian, and Hindi, translating the specific format used by that country's health system.
