Meet the Requirements of Australian Authorities with Us
Australian authorities generally require you to provide the English translation of foreign language documents. The Department of Home Affairs sets different rules depending on where the translation is completed. Translations done in Australia must be completed by a NAATI-certified translator and include their NAATI practitioner number. Translations done outside Australia must include the translator’s full name, address, telephone number and qualifications in the relevant language.
With a network of NAATI-certified translators and a 98.8% acceptance rate, our professional migration translators provide certified translations for immigration and visa documents, reducing errors and costly immigration delays.
Our immigration translation work includes the translator’s full name, NAATI practitioner number, signature, date, official NAATI stamp, language pair, certification type, and accuracy statement.

What Documents Do Our Migration Translators Translate for Australian Visa Applications?
The Department of Home Affairs’ requirements for birth, marriage, or death certificate translations or driver licences are generally the same. However, please note requirements vary by visa subclass and individual circumstances. Therefore, always check the document checklist for your specific visa application for current requirements, including certification and supporting-document requirements.
Our NAATI‑certified migration translators have handled the following multilingual documents for migrants:
| Document Type | Typical Australian Visa Requirement | Why it may be required for visa/migration |

Frequently Asked Questions about Our Migration Translation Services
1. What is ISO 17100 certification and why does it matter for migration translation services?
2. Do you keep my personal information confidential during migration translation?
Yes. Your documents are only accessed by the translator and QA staff assigned to your job, on a need-to-know basis. See our Privacy Policy for how we store and handle your files.
3. What is the difference between a migration translator and a migration agent?
A migration translator converts your documents into English (or another required language) so they can be understood and assessed by the relevant authority. A migration agent, on the other hand, is registered to provide advice on visa options and assist with the application process itself. We provide migration translation services and our partner Australian Migration Lawyers can help you understand the visa pathway.
4. Do I need a new translation if my name has changed since my document was issued?
While it generally depends on the authority you’re submitting to and how the name discrepancy appears across your documents, in some cases, an additional document may need to be translated and submitted alongside the original, rather than requiring a fresh translation.
5. Can multiple family members' documents be translated together in one migration application?
Yes, we can translate documents for multiple family members as part of the same order, to streamline your process when a household is applying together.
6. What problems occur when migration translation services are not certified?
Uncertified translations may not be accepted by the receiving authority, which can lead to delays or requests for resubmission. Most authorities need certified migration translations with a statement of accuracy from a certified translator.
7. Are migration translation services needed for residency or citizenship documents?
If any of your supporting documents for an Australian residency or citizenship application are not in English, you will need to translate the documents before submission.
8. What if I am not satisfied with the immigration translation and need to make changes?
We offer free revisions on all migration document translations. We prioritise client satisfaction. Kindly share your revision requirements within 3 days of receiving the draft or 7 days of receiving the information from the authority. To learn more, check out our revision, refund, and cancellation policy.
