If you're applying for permanent residency in Canada through Express Entry, submitting complete and accurate documentation is critical — and that includes official translations of any documents not originally in English or French. At DocsBase Canada, we provide certified translation services that meet all IRCC (Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada) requirements, helping you avoid delays and ensuring your application is processed smoothly.
Why You Need Official Translations for Express Entry
Canada’s immigration system requires all documents submitted with an Express Entry application to be in either English or French, Canada’s two official languages. If your original documents are in any other language, IRCC mandates that you provide:
-
A certified translation of the original document, AND
-
A copy of the original foreign-language document
This applies to key documents such as:
-
Passports and identity documents
-
Academic diplomas and transcripts
-
Marriage or divorce certificates
-
copyright
-
Employment letters or references
-
Police clearance certificates
Failure to provide proper certified translations can result in application delays or refusals.
What IRCC Requires from Translations
To be accepted by IRCC under Express Entry, your translated documents must:
-
Be complete and accurate (word-for-word, no summaries)
-
Be done by a certified translator in Canada, or include a sworn affidavit if the translation is done outside Canada
-
Include the translator’s stamp, signature, and contact information
-
Be accompanied by a copy of the original document
At DocsBase Canada, our certified translations are fully compliant with IRCC standards and are consistently accepted across all immigration streams, including Express Entry.
