IRCC, and the offices in Yellowknife 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.

The Northwest Territories ask for the translator’s own sworn word more than for a credential. The Northwest Territories Nominee Program (NTNP) accepts documents translated into English or French with an affidavit from the person who did the translation, plus the original or a certified copy, which is the format we deliver. For a name change, a foreign document in another language must come with a translation and a statutory declaration signed by the translator. The marriage licence and driver’s licence pages do not mention translation.

Check with the office that will receive your document before you order. The territory has no translators’ association of its own, and Roxo is not a member of any Canadian association.

The Northwest Territories have 11 official languages: nine Indigenous languages, including Tłı̨chǫ, Inuktitut and nēhiyawēwin (Cree), plus English and French. Yellowknife is one of the communities with significant demand for services in French.

Yellowknife takes its name from the Yellowknives Dene, named for the copper-bladed knives they carried. It was named capital of the Northwest Territories in 1967 and became a city in 1970.
