Certified Indonesian Translation Services for $24.90 per Page

USCIS requires that any document in Indonesian be submitted with:

1. A full English translation of the entire document, including seals, stamps, signatures and annotations.
2. A signed certification stating that the translation is complete and accurate, and that it was prepared by a translator competent to translate from Indonesian into English.

Every Translations Certified Indonesian to English translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy that meets both requirements, plus notarization at no extra cost.

Which version of a civil record to translate: Indonesian births and non-Muslim marriages are registered with the civil registry, while Muslim marriages are registered with the Religious Affairs Office, which issues a marriage book. The U.S. Department of State’s Reciprocity Schedule lists which documents are acceptable for Indonesia. Check it before ordering a translation.

English to Indonesian Translation for Use in Indonesia

For official use in Indonesia, offices often ask for a translation by an Indonesian sworn translator. A certified translation from Translations Certified works where the receiving office accepts certified translations, so check with the office or the Indonesian consulate before ordering.

Apostille first, translation second: If your U.S. document needs an apostille or legalization, get it before ordering the translation, so it can be translated as part of the document. In the United States, state-issued documents get their apostille from the Secretary of State of the issuing state, and federal documents from the U.S. Department of State.

Common Problems with Indonesian Documents That Delay USCIS Cases

• Single names. Many Indonesians have only one name. The translation reflects the document exactly, so follow the USCIS form instructions for applicants with a single name, and add a note when you place your order if your name appears differently in other records.
• The Family Card left out. The Family Card lists every member of a household and is often used as supporting evidence of family relationships. If you submit it, it needs a certified translation too.
• A marriage book from the Religious Affairs Office without checking the requirement. Muslim marriages are recorded in a marriage book rather than a civil certificate. Check the Reciprocity Schedule to confirm which document USCIS expects.
• Divorce records from the wrong court. Muslim divorces are handled by religious courts and non-Muslim divorces by district courts. Make sure you translate the final decision from the court that handled your case.
• Missing pages, stamps or annotations. Upload every page, front and back, so the translation covers the complete document.
