Certified Background Check Translation from $14.90 per Page

Foreign background records translated into English:

1. Employers hiring candidates who lived abroad: International screening often returns police certificates, court searches, education verifications and employment references in other languages.
2. Background screening companies: Screening providers translate foreign-language results so they can complete and deliver reports to their clients.
3. Licensing boards: Boards for nursing, teaching, finance, security and other regulated professions may ask for police certificates from every country where an applicant lived.
4. Volunteer and child-care organizations: Organizations working with children and vulnerable people often check records from abroad.

U.S. background checks translated into another language:

1. Working or teaching abroad: Many countries ask for an FBI background check, often apostilled and translated, to issue work visas, including visas for teaching English.
2. Residence permits and adoption dossiers: Foreign authorities and adoption agencies often require translated U.S. background checks.
3. Consent forms: Screening companies translate consent and disclosure forms so candidates abroad understand what they sign.

What a Certified Background Check Translation Includes

• A full translation of the entire document, including names, identification numbers, record details, dates, verification codes, stamps, seals and signatures.
• A signed certification stating that the translation is complete and accurate, and that it was prepared by a translator competent to translate between the two languages.

Every Translations Certified background check translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy and notarization at no extra cost. For immigration cases, see certified criminal record translation.

Common Background Check Translation Problems

• Records summarized instead of translated. A certified translation covers every entry in full, so the reviewer sees exactly what the record says.
• Different formats in every country. Police certificates, court searches and verifications look different from one country to another. The translation reproduces each document’s layout so it stays easy to compare with the original.
• Expired checks. Many employers and foreign authorities only accept recent checks. Check the issue date before ordering.
• Apostilles added after the translation. For U.S. checks going abroad, get the apostille first, so it is translated together with the check.
• Names transliterated differently. Names from non-Latin scripts can appear in several spellings. Add how the candidate’s name appears in the passport in the order notes.
