Everything is done online, and the translation arrives by email.

## Where Kitchener asks for a certified translation

- Kitchener is the larger of the twin cities of Kitchener-Waterloo, in Ontario. When a document is not in English or French, these are the offices that most often ask for a translation:

- IRCC, for permanent residence, Express Entry, study and work permits and citizenship, by online application
- Kitchener City Hall, 200 King Street West, for the marriage licence, walk-in or by appointment
- DriveTest centres, for the exchange of a foreign driver’s licence
- The Office of the Registrar General and ServiceOntario, for Ontario birth, marriage and death certificates
- The Ontario courts at 85 Frederick Street, the University of Waterloo and Wilfrid Laurier University in neighbouring Waterloo, Conestoga College, banks, technology employers and landlords

## IRCC, and the offices in Kitchener with rules of their own

- For IRCC, a translation by a translator who is not certified in Canada is accepted when it comes with the translator’s affidavit, sworn before a notary public outside Canada, and a certified copy of the original. That is our IRCC translation.
- For the marriage licence, Kitchener issues the licence on the day of the visit when the documents are valid and consistent, and a divorce granted outside Canada needs a Foreign Divorce Authority Letter from Ontario. For a foreign driver’s licence, Ontario accepts translations by foreign embassies and consulates and by qualified translators who show their credentials, dated within six months of the application.
- The City’s page does not say who may translate identification, so check with the City or DriveTest whether they will accept our translation before you order: they may ask for a translator certified in Ontario, and Roxo is not a member of ATIO.

## Brazilians and Spanish speakers in Kitchener

- Kitchener had 75,450 immigrants in the 2021 census, 29.7% of its population, and India was their most common place of birth. Spanish is the most common mother tongue after English, with 6,305 speakers, ahead of Punjabi and Arabic, and Punjabi is the language other than English most often spoken at home. 655 immigrants were born in Brazil. The Consulate General of Brazil in Toronto serves the city.
- For a Canadian document going to Brazil, such as a birth or marriage certificate to be registered at a Brazilian registry office, the translation must be the Brazilian sworn translation (tradução juramentada), done by a sworn translator in Brazil. We provide that too.

## Did you know? Kitchener

- Kitchener was called Berlin until 1916: during the First World War, residents, led by business owners, changed the name to counter any doubt about the loyalty of a city with a large German-speaking population.
- The German roots are still visible: 45,005 residents reported German origins in the 2021 census, and the nine-day Oktoberfest of Kitchener-Waterloo is the largest event on the city’s cultural calendar.
