IRCC document translation service
Marriage Certificate Translation for IRCC Applications
Marriage certificates may be used to document marital status or support family and immigration applications. If the certificate requested for your IRCC application is not in English or French, we can translate the document and its visible civil-registry information.
Independent service: IRCC Translation is not affiliated with Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada or the Government of Canada.
Marriage documents we translate
We translate the visible official information in a range of marriage and civil-registry documents.
Check the instructions for your application
IRCC requirements depend on the route
The document checklist for your immigration or citizenship route determines whether a marriage certificate is required and how a translation should be submitted. Requirements can differ by program and translator status.
Check the current IRCC guidance on translated supporting documents and the instructions for your application.
What we translate
The translation can include spouses’ names, dates and places of birth where shown, date and place of marriage, certificate or registration number, issuing authority, witness information, signatures, stamps, seals and other visible official text.
We translate the source document and do not add legal interpretation or relationship evidence.
Prepare the document before ordering
Name consistency
If names are written in another script or appear differently across passports and civil records, tell us the spelling used in the relevant passport or immigration forms. This helps identify spelling or transliteration differences before the translation is finalised.
Before uploading
Please upload a clear scan of every page of the marriage document and tell us the source language, target language and IRCC application or purpose. If the program requires a specific translator status, affidavit or supporting-document format, tell us when requesting the quote.
