IRCC document translation service
Police Certificate Translation for IRCC Applications
If a police certificate you need for a Canadian immigration application is not in English or French, the document may need to be submitted with a translation. We translate police certificates and related criminal-record documents for applicants preparing files for Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada.
Independent service: IRCC Translation is not affiliated with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada or the Government of Canada.

Police certificate guidance
IRCC states that a police certificate that is not in English or French should be submitted with the original certificate and the required translation. Exact supporting-document rules can vary by immigration program and by the translator used.
What we translate
Depending on the certificate, the translation can include the holder’s name, date and place of birth, document or reference number, issuing authority, issue date, record information, official notes, stamps and seals.
We do not alter, interpret or add information that is not present in the source document.
Before placing your order
Tell us the application and document details
Please tell us which IRCC application the document is for and the source and target languages. Upload a clear scan or photograph of the complete certificate. If your application route specifies a certified translator, affidavit or another supporting document, tell us when requesting the quote so we can confirm whether the service can meet that requirement.
