About the role

Verdacert is a certified translation company serving USCIS filings, courts, universities, and medical providers, with deep expertise in translating official documents from Arabic, Farsi, Urdu, Pashto, Dari, Turkish, and dozens of other languages. We're looking for a Legal Gujarati Translator to join our network of native-speaker reviewers, providing accurate, certified translations of legal and civil documents between Gujarati and English for immigration, court, academic, and medical use cases.

What you'll do

Translate legal and civil documents (birth certificates, marriage records, court filings, affidavits, academic transcripts, and similar) between Gujarati and English
Review and edit machine-generated first drafts for accuracy, completeness, and faithful transliteration of names, dates, and numbers
Sign certification statements attesting to the accuracy and completeness of each translation, in a form that meets USCIS regulatory requirements (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3))
Preserve original document layout and formatting in the translated output
Flag ambiguous source content, illegible text, or inconsistencies to the project lead rather than guessing
Meet defined turnaround windows (standard, express, or rush) depending on order priority

What we're looking for

Native or near-native fluency in Gujarati and English, with strong legal and civil document vocabulary in both languages
Demonstrated experience translating official documents such as birth/marriage certificates, court records, affidavits, or transcripts
Familiarity with certified translation standards and certification statement requirements for USCIS or similar government agencies
Meticulous attention to detail, especially with names, dates, numbers, and transliteration conventions
Ability to work within firm delivery deadlines, including rush turnaround requests
Comfortable reviewing and editing AI-assisted first-draft translations rather than translating entirely from scratch

Nice to have

Prior experience as a certified or court-approved translator
Familiarity with Gujarati civil registry formats and regional document conventions
Experience translating for immigration, legal, or medical contexts
