Documents · Articles of incorporation
Certified articles of incorporation translation - pick your source language.
Articles of incorporation - and the closely-related commercial registry extracts, عقد التأسيس, شرکتنامه, ticaret sicil gazetesi - establish a company's legal existence. Verdacert translates them for E-2 treaty-investor and L-1A intracompany-transferee petitions, EB-5 regional-center cases, and consular-processing evidence of business ownership. We also produce updated commercial-registry extracts as add-on translations when the underlying articles haven't changed.
Every field on your articles of incorporation, translated in full.
Nothing is summarized or left out. Seals, stamps and signatures are described in brackets, and anything unreadable is marked [illegible] instead of guessed.

Common questions about articles of incorporation translation.
If your question isn't here, our support team replies within an hour, 7 days a week from 8am ET to 11pm PT.
Q.01How much does articles of incorporation translation cost?
Pricing is per page: $32.95 at Standard (48 hours), $33.95 at Express (24 hours) and $48.99 at Rush (14 hours). Articles of incorporation typically run about 6 pages, so expect about $197.70 at Standard. The rate is the same for every source language, and your quote shows the full price before you pay.
Q.02Will USCIS accept my articles of incorporation translation?
Yes. Every translation comes with a signed certificate of accuracy that meets 8 CFR § 103.2(b)(3): a complete English translation, and the reviewer's signed statement that it is accurate and that they are competent in both languages. US courts, universities and employers accept the same certification. If a recipient rejects it for a translation error, we retranslate or refund - conditions apply, see our Refund Policy.
Q.03Does my articles of incorporation need to be notarized for USCIS?
No. USCIS does not require notarization - only the translator's signed certification statement under 8 CFR § 103.2(b)(3). If another authority asks for a notarized translation, you can add notarization at checkout and receive a notarized PDF, usually within three business days after the certified PDF.
Q.04How long does the translation take?
Standard turnaround is 48 hours from the time we receive your document. Express is 24 hours. Rush is 14 hours, available 24/7 including weekends. Same-Day targets 8 hours and 4-Hour targets 4 hours, both on a best-effort basis - we confirm the window is achievable before starting and refund the order in full if we miss it. The promised tier appears on your order page, and if we miss a guaranteed tier, we make it right: a free upgrade to the next-faster tier, a credit for the difference, or a refund of the speed premium.
Q.05Will my articles of incorporation translation include all stamps, seals, and signatures from the original?
Yes. Every visible mark - official seals, registry stamps, registrar signatures, watermarks - is described in brackets within the translation so the accepting authority can verify the chain of authentication on the source document.
Q.06What if my articles of incorporation is handwritten or hard to read?
Hand-written entries are transcribed faithfully. Illegible portions are explicitly marked [illegible] rather than guessed - accepting authorities much prefer honest markers to plausible guesses. The reviewer leaves a note in the certification block explaining any [illegible] markers.
Q.07Which languages do you translate articles of incorporation from?
More than 100 source languages into English, and from English into other languages, always reviewed by a native speaker. Pick yours from the lists above; if it isn't there, contact us.
Q.08What if I need a revision after delivery?
Minor revisions - typos, name-spelling corrections, format adjustments - are free for 90 days from delivery. Open your order page and click 'Request a revision'; the same reviewer (or another qualified one) typically handles the change within one business day.
