Sworn translation for use in Brazil only: documents translated from English into Portuguese and signed by the sworn public translator on our team.
Sworn translation is for use in Brazil only. For USCIS or institutions in other countries, see Certified Translation. The receiving institution determines which format is required.
Sworn translation is for use in Brazil only. It is required when a Brazilian institution asks for a translation with public faith (fé pública) of a document in English. In Brazil, it is prepared by a Public Translator and Commercial Interpreter (Tradutor Público e Intérprete Comercial). It applies to civil, academic, corporate and court documents. The requirements for your case are confirmed before work begins.
