## Where Surrey asks for a certified translation

- Surrey is a city of Metro Vancouver, in British Columbia. 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
- Service BC offices and authorized marriage licence issuers, for the marriage licence
- ICBC driver licensing offices, for the exchange of a foreign driver’s licence
- The B. C. Vital Statistics Agency, for B. C. birth, marriage and death certificates and legal changes of name
- B. C. courts, Kwantlen Polytechnic University, Simon Fraser University’s Surrey campus, banks, employers and landlords

## IRCC, and the offices in Surrey 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.
- Two B. C. offices have rules of their own. ICBC, which exchanges foreign driver’s licences, decides by country whether a translation is needed: a licence from Brazil does not need one, while licences from Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Chile and Peru do, and the translation must come from an ICBC-approved translator or a consulate in B. C. For B. C. documents going abroad, the province’s authentication office accepts translations by a translator certified by STIBC or another CTTIC society, or by a B. C. notary, notarized together with the original.
- Check with ICBC or the office that will receive your document before you order: ICBC works with translators it has approved, other B. C. offices may ask for a translator certified in B. C., and Roxo is not a member of STIBC.

## Brazilians and Spanish speakers in Surrey

- Surrey had 250,870 immigrants in the 2021 census, 44.6% of its population. Punjabi is the mother tongue of 128,305 residents, followed by Mandarin, Tagalog and Hindi. 7,565 people have Spanish as their mother tongue, 1,200 were born in Mexico and 545 in Brazil. The nearest consulates general of Brazil and Mexico are in Vancouver.
- 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? Surrey

- Punjabi is Surrey’s second language: 101,690 residents speak it most often at home, about 18% of the city, and by the City’s own count nearly one in five residents speaks Punjabi at home.
- Surrey has a rule for its own translations: since 2025, the City translates its information into any language spoken at home by 5% or more of residents, citywide or in a single town centre.
