UKVI requires certified translations of all non-English or non-Welsh documents. Common documents include birth certificates, marriage certificates, bank statements, degree certificates, employment letters, and police clearance certificates.
What needs translating depends on the route. Spouse and partner applications lean heavy on personal documents — marriage certificate, birth certificates, bank statements, employment evidence. Student visas focus on academic records: degrees, transcripts, sometimes secondary school certificates. Skilled Worker applications push professional qualifications into the spotlight, especially for regulated professions where GMC, NMC, or GDC registration is sitting downstream of the visa decision.
Whatever the route, the translation format is identical: signed statement of accuracy, translator credentials, contact details, date. We cover 120+ languages with the same per-page rate.
