If your immigration application includes any documents which are not in English (or Welsh), you must also include an original translation of each document. Each translation must contain:

  • confirmation from the translator / translation company that it is an accurate translation of the original document the date of the translation
  • the full name and original signature of the translator, or of an authorised official of the translation company
  • the contact details of the translator or translation company; and
  • certification by a qualified translator and details of the translator or translation company’s credentials (if you are already in the UK and are applying for further leave)
