Certified passport translation

A certified passport translation is an official translation of a passport, usually the identity or biographical page, accompanied by a signed statement confirming it is a true and accurate rendering of the original. At Absolute Translations we translate and certify passports for visa and immigration applications, opening a bank account, employment, property purchases and marriage, for the Home Office and UKVI, banks, employers and notaries. Prices start from £29 for a standard document or first page, including the translation, the certification and VAT, and because a passport page is short, many can be certified the same day.

What’s included in your certified translation

Every certified passport translation includes the translation itself and a signed, dated statement confirming it is a true and accurate translation, carrying our name and contact details, together with our official company stamp on our letterhead. That signed statement, not the stamp alone, is what UK authorities look for. We are an established UK translation company, the first in the UK to achieve ISO 17100, with over twenty years of experience translating official and legal documents. You receive a copy by email, and we can also send a posted certified copy where the receiving authority does not accept a digital certification. Every document is handled securely and in line with GDPR.

Money-back guarantee on passport translation services accepted by UK authorities and international organisations.

Accepted by UK authorities, guaranteed

Our certified passport translations are produced to be accepted by the bodies that request them. People rely on us when a visa or immigration application, a bank, an employer or a notary needs a passport in English as proof of identity, often as part of a larger set of documents. Tell us which body will receive the translation and we recommend and set the right level of certification, backed by our money-back guarantee.

A passport is the identity anchor for an application, so we reproduce your full name, passport number, date and place of birth and the dates of issue and expiry exactly as they appear, transliterating names carefully where the passport uses a non-Latin script. Because the passport is usually submitted with other documents, we keep the spelling of your name consistent with your other certified translations, so a caseworker or bank sees one identity across the whole file.

Part of a larger set, translated together

A passport is rarely translated on its own, so we can translate and certify it alongside the other documents in your application, a birth or marriage certificate, a police certificate or a bank statement, keeping names, dates and terminology identical across the set. This consistency is exactly what prevents a visa or account application being queried over an apparent mismatch between documents.

Certified passport translation starts from £29 for a standard document or first page, including the translation, the certification and VAT; additional pages, where needed, are from £26 for most languages. Because the document is usually short, most orders sit at the base price. If notarisation is required, our in-house notary usually completes this the same day; an apostille, from £85, legalises the document for use in another Hague Convention country. Your exact price depends on the language pair, the number of pages and the level of certification. Upload your passport for a fixed quote, or see our certified translation prices for a full breakdown.

Most certified passport translations are ready within one to two working days, and because the document is usually short, same-day certification is available on request. We offer both a standard and an express service. When you upload your document, tell us your deadline and we will confirm a delivery date before you order.

We were the first UK translation company to achieve ISO 17100 accreditation, and we also hold ISO 9001, ISO 18841 and ISO 18587.

We have worked for organisations including the UK government and the NHS, and we are rated Excellent on Trustpilot, with 2,500+ reviews. We are also carbon negative, a step beyond carbon neutral.
