ABC TranslationJamaica

Certified translation in Jamaica

A certified translation is a complete and faithful translation that carries a signed statement from the translator or agency confirming its accuracy. Authorities in Jamaica and abroad often refuse documents without one.

We prepare certified translations for immigration applications (USCIS, IRCC, UK Home Office), the Passport, Immigration and Citizenship Agency (PICA), courts, universities and employers. When a destination country requires a sworn or notarised translation, we arrange that too.

Documents we translate most often

  • Birth, marriage and death certificates
  • Divorce decrees and court judgments
  • Diplomas, transcripts and academic records
  • Police records and certificates of character
  • Passports, ID cards and driver's licences
  • Contracts, company documents and bank statements
  • Medical records and reports

Common questions

What makes a translation 'certified'?

It includes a signed certificate of accuracy with the translator's or agency's details. Some countries also require a sworn translator's seal or a notary, which we can provide.

Can you translate a scan or a photo?

Yes. For most purposes a clear scan is enough. If the authority needs the translation bound to the original, we will tell you before we start.

How long does it take?

Standard documents are usually ready in two to four business days. Urgent service is available on request.
