Translations for Home Office and UK immigration applications

Use the dedicated Home Office page for immigration, settlement, British citizenship and related official submissions. For spouse or partner applications, use our spouse visa translation service. If your documents are for an overseas visa, embassy or consular submission, the visa application translation page covers those broader international requirements, while the UKVI page covers UKVI-specific requirements.

What a Certified Translation Normally Shows

A certified translation is a complete translation supplied with information confirming its accuracy and identifying the translator or translation company responsible for the work. When choosing a UK certified translator or translation provider, the important point is that the finished translation includes the certification details required by the organisation receiving your documents. If you are searching for an official translator in the UK, check the receiving authority’s written requirements rather than relying on the label alone.
