In the state of California, documents submitted to the County Registrar must include a Declaration signed by the translator before a Notary Public.

The cost includes a notary acknowledgment certificate plus USPS Priority Shipping.

PDF vs USPS

  • Postage and handling fees apply.

Here are the steps I typically follow when translating:

  • Kindly provide a copy of the documents requiring translation, preferably in Word or PDF format. Additionally, please share any guidance you have received regarding the translation process.

  • Upon reviewing the materials, I will send you a formal quote that outlines the delivery date and associated costs.

  • You may accept the terms of the quote by submitting the full payment, for which I will include detailed payment instructions.

  • Once I receive confirmation of payment, I will begin the translation.

  • Personal documents such as birth, death, and marriage certificates are typically completed within 48 hours.

  • Upon completion, you will receive an electronic copy (PDF file) of your document for your review and records.

  • If you require physical copies, please inform me so that we can arrange shipping via USPS Priority service.
