Sworn translation of the marriage certificate is essential in situations such as international relocation for work, study or family reasons. The translation of this document attests to its legal validity in the country of destination.
To ensure the legal validity of the document in the target language, a series of steps must be followed. You can use a photocopy or true copy of the original document and then proceed with the translation into the required language for the destination country. It is essential to rely on a qualified sworn translator who, once the translation is completed, will swear the document in the court, giving it legal value.
When is a sworn translation of the marriage certificate required?
- Relocation abroad: if you move to a foreign country for work, study or family reasons.
- Applying for visas and permits: if you need to obtain visas or residence permits in some foreign countries.
- Legal proceedings: in some cases such as divorce petitions, division of property, or international adoptions, it may be necessary to submit a sworn translation of the marriage certificate to prove marital status and validity.
- Foreign Marriage Registration: if you need to officially register the marriage in a country other than the one in which it was celebrated.
It is important to consult the relevant authorities in the destination country to find out the specifications and requirements regarding the sworn translation of the marriage certificate. A professional sworn translator will be able to provide an accurate service that complies with the legal standards of the country in question.
When it comes to legalizing or apostilizing a document that needs to be translated, it is important to do the legalization or apostille before the translation on the original document into Italian at the court.
The same principle applies to foreign documents to be enforced in Italy.
It is essential that the legalization or apostille be affixed to the original and then proceed with the sworn translation, which can also be done in Italy.
Turn to experienced professionals in the field of sworn translations to obtain a high-quality, reliable translation that meets all legal and administrative requirements of the target country.
