USCIS-accepted certified translations for immigration, courts, universities, and employers – from $29.95 per page. Serving Detroit and Wayne County with fast turnaround.
Detroit is a center of language diversity in Michigan. Roughly 6% of Detroit residents were born outside the United States, and Detroit is a historic gateway city with distinct Mexican, Iraqi Chaldean, Bengali, Yemeni, Albanian, and Polish communities concentrated in Mexicantown (southwest Detroit), Banglatown, Hamtramck-adjacent neighborhoods, and the Chaldean corridor in Warren. The most commonly requested translation languages in the city are Spanish, Arabic and Bengali – driven by immigration filings, Wayne County courts, admissions at Wayne State University and the University of Detroit Mercy, and employment documentation across automotive, healthcare, and higher-education employers.
Official Translations provides USCIS-accepted certified translations for individuals, law firms, immigration attorneys, universities and employers throughout Detroit and Wayne County. Every translation is completed by a professional translator and accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy – the format required by USCIS under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3), by the U.S. District Court, Eastern District of Michigan – Detroit division, by the Wayne County (3rd) Circuit Court, and by Wayne State University, University of Detroit Mercy, Wayne County Community College District.
