Why Charleston Residents Need Certified Translations
Charleston has a steadily growing foreign-born population – roughly 5.8% of residents per the latest US Census estimates, with about 8.2% of households speaking a language other than English at home. Per ACS 2022 5-year estimates, about 5.8% of Charleston city residents are foreign-born and roughly 8.2% of residents age 5+ speak a language other than English at home, with Spanish the largest non-English language group. This creates ongoing demand for certified translation services – for immigration applications routed through the Atlanta Immigration Court (nearest to Charleston, SC has no dedicated IJ court), court proceedings at the Charleston County Clerk of Court, university admissions at College of Charleston, Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC), The Citadel, The Military College of South Carolina, and employment, licensing, and medical records required by employers and regulators across South Carolina.

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) and by all official US institutions.
