Which Service to Choose

Understand the difference between certified and sworn translation before you order.

The choice depends on where the document will be used. For the United States (USCIS, universities, courts, DMV), the request is usually for a certified translation. For Brazil, the requirement is a sworn translation, done by a sworn public translator. If the document needs international validity, an apostille may also be needed. The questions below help you decide; if in doubt, the team advises you before you pay.

Certified or sworn translation: which one do I need?

It depends on the country where the document will be used. For the United States (USCIS, DMV, courts, universities), you need a certified translation. For Brazil, you need a sworn translation. For any other country, tell us where you will submit it and we confirm the right format before quoting.

Is a US certified translator the same as my country's sworn, official or court-appointed translator?

No. A US certified translation is what USCIS, courts, universities and agencies in the United States accept. Many countries have their own official translator, such as Brazil's tradutor juramentado, Spain's traductor jurado, Mexico's perito traductor, Colombia's traductor oficial and Argentina's traductor público. To use a document in the United States, the certified translation is what you need; to use it in another country, that country's rule applies. Roxo also does sworn translation for Brazil.

Do you also do simple (non-certified) translations?

Yes. When the document is for information only and no agency requires certification or public faith, we can do a simple translation. Tell us what it is for and we confirm the right service before quoting.
