Expert Tagalog Certified Translation for USCIS
Meeting Strict USCIS Standards for Filipino Documents

Meeting Strict USCIS Standards for Filipino Documents

When you submit foreign-language documents to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), a basic translation is not enough. You need a certified translation: a complete English translation accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy.

Even when PSA (Philippine Statistics Authority) records include some English, Filipino-only annotations, stamps, marginal notes, or clearance details may still need to be translated. MotaWord’s Tagalog certified translation service helps ensure every seal, signature, notation, and handwritten detail is properly accounted for so your documents are ready for submission.

Precision for Every "Katunayan": Tagalog Translation

Precision for Every "Katunayan": Tagalog Translation

Tagalog documents often contain formal terminology, regional formatting, and administrative details that require careful handling. Whether your records come from Manila, Cebu, Davao, or another locality, accurate translation matters when you are submitting a birth certificate, marriage certificate, affidavit, school record, NBI clearance, or other official document.

Our certified Tagalog translator network includes native-speaking linguists familiar with PSA terminology and local document conventions.
