New Orleans is one of the most culturally and linguistically distinctive cities in the United States, with a colonial French and Spanish heritage layered over centuries of Caribbean, African, and Vietnamese immigration. Roughly 9% of New Orleans residents speak a language other than English at home, with Spanish, Vietnamese, French, Haitian Creole, and Honduran Garifuna among the most common. This diversity creates constant demand for official translation services – for immigration applications routed through the New Orleans USCIS Field Office and the New Orleans Immigration Court, proceedings at the Orleans Parish Civil District Court and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana, and admissions at Tulane, Loyola, Xavier, Dillard, and the University of New Orleans.

Official Translations provides USCIS-accepted certified translations for individuals, law firms, immigration attorneys, universities, and employers throughout New Orleans and Orleans Parish. Every translation is completed by a professional translator and accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy – the format required by USCIS and all official US institutions. Whether you are filing at the New Orleans USCIS Field Office at 1250 Poydras Street, submitting evidence to the Eastern District of Louisiana, or applying to Tulane University, our translations meet every institutional standard.
