Birth Certificates

In many situations, you may be required to provide important documents—such as your passport, birth certificate, identification card, or academic records—for applications or as supporting documents. Instead of submitting your original birth certificate, a certified true copy (also known as a notarized copy) is often sufficient. This helps protect your original documents, which can be costly and time-consuming to replace if lost or damaged.

A Notary Public is typically required to certify a true copy of your original birth certificate. At Central Translation, we verify that a photocopy matches the original document by adding an official signature, seal, and certification statement. This ensures that anyone reviewing the copy can trust that it is an accurate and authentic reproduction of the original.

Certified true copies are frequently required for:

  1. Academic applications (schools, colleges, and universities)
  2. Employment processes, especially overseas job applications
  3. Government procedures and licensing
  4. Immigration and visa applications, including work, study, or residency permits
  5. Proof of identity or residence, such as for school enrollment or legal matters

Visa and immigration applications often require certified copies of documents such as your passport, birth certificate, marriage certificate, name-change certificate, or military service record. Professional and trade licensing authorities may also request certified copies of your birth certificate along with other identity and qualification documents.

In some cases, foreign institutions may additionally require your certified documents to be Apostilled or Legalized by their Embassy or Consulate.
