The language United States requires
All documents submitted to United States authorities must be in English. The receiving office needs to read and understand the content of your Italian papers, so a certified translation into English in Padua solves this language gap. The translated version does not replace your original document but becomes the official English version for use in United States. Common documents needing this service include birth certificates, marriage records, and academic transcripts.
Certification United States accepts
The United States does not require a court-sworn translator for most purposes. Instead, they accept a certificate of accuracy from a professional translator. This official English translation in Padua includes a signed statement from the translator confirming that the text matches the original. The certification does not validate the original document's content—it only confirms that the translation is true to the source.

Acceptance in United States
