There is an important difference between an ordinary translation and a certified translation.
A standard translation may be sufficient for personal understanding. However, when a Russian birth certificate is being submitted to an official body in the UK, the receiving authority may require a certified translation.
Our certified translation service is intended for documents that need to be presented for official purposes.
The completed translation can include certification confirming that the English version is a true and accurate translation of the original document, together with the relevant translator or certification details.
If you have been given specific instructions by the Home Office, UKVI, a solicitor, court, university or another organisation concerning the format of the certification, provide those instructions when placing your order.

Birth certificates contain information that must be translated accurately.
A minor error in a person's name, date of birth, place of birth or parental information can create an inconsistency between documents.
This is particularly important when your Russian birth certificate is being submitted together with:

• A Russian passport
• A UK visa application
• A British passport application
• Marriage or divorce documents
• Children's documents
• Parents' documents
• Educational certificates
• Other civil-status documents

Names are especially important. Russian names written in Cyrillic need to be represented consistently in English. If you already use a particular English spelling of your name in your passport or other official documents, you should provide this information to the translator.

We can translate both recent and older Russian birth certificates.
Some documents were issued many years ago and may contain older terminology, different formatting, faded stamps or handwritten information. Older certificates can require additional attention because the document may not follow the same format as a more recent certificate.
The translation should nevertheless accurately reflect the information contained in the original.
If part of an old document is unclear or illegible, we do not recommend guessing what the original says. Where necessary, an unclear section can be identified appropriately in the translation rather than introducing information that is not actually visible on the source document.
