About the service
Certified translation of death certificates and related records
We translate death certificates and related official records into English for immigration, probate, legal, estate and other administrative uses. The translation can include names, dates, places, registration details, issuing-authority information, causes or classifications where shown, and visible stamps or annotations.
If a solicitor, probate office, UKVI caseworker or another receiving organisation has given you specific instructions, send them with the document so the required translation and certification route can be reviewed first.
