What our reviewers know about your documents
French civil records follow the acte d'état civil format used across the Francophonie, with extracts (extraits) and full copies (copies intégrales) carrying distinct evidentiary weight. Verdacert preserves marginal mentions (mentions marginales) — including marriage, divorce, and death annotations — because USCIS adjudicators rely on them for status verification. African Francophone documents may be bilingual with a national language; the certified translation reconciles both versions into a single English document. Dates use the day-month-year order throughout and the Gregorian calendar.
Common source countries: France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, Senegal, Côte d'Ivoire, Mali, Cameroon, Democratic Republic of the Congo, Madagascar, Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Lebanon.
