Greek birth certificates submitted for other — what reviewers look for, and what we attach.
Birth certificates issued by Greek-speaking jurisdictions are among the most-translated civil documents in US other filings. Birth certificates are the most frequently submitted civil document in US immigration filings. USCIS requires a complete certified English translation of any non-English birth certificate submitted with form I-130, I-485, N-400, and most asylum and family-based petitions.
Greek is the official language of Greece and a co-official language of Cyprus. Verdacert translates Greek civil status certificates (ληξιαρχική πράξη γέννησης, ληξιαρχική πράξη γάμου), academic diplomas, military service records, and church-issued sacramental records for US immigration, university, and credential-evaluation filings. Verdacert's reviewer pool covers Modern Demotic Greek, Katharevousa-influenced older documents, with country-specific document conventions from Greece, Cyprus.
Greek civil records are issued by the Ληξιαρχείο of each dimos (municipality), with full extracts (πιστοποιητικό) carrying broader evidentiary scope than abridged certificates. Greek Orthodox sacramental records (baptism, marriage) often supplement civil records in older cases and are issued by the local Metropolis; Verdacert translates both civil and ecclesiastical records and notes the source. Greek is written in the Greek alphabet read left-to-right; names are transliterated following ELOT 743 or the holder's preferred passport spelling. Dates use the day-month-year order and Gregorian calendar.
Verdacert handles any document that requires a certified English translation for use in a US setting. If your use case isn't listed, the standard certification statement applies and most documents are accepted without further authentication.
For birth certificate translations specifically, our reviewers focus on names transliterated inconsistently across documents in the same file and hijri/solar hijri vs gregorian date conversions, among other patterns. The AI draft is calibrated to surface uncertainty rather than guess, so the reviewer always knows where to spend their attention.
Every translation we deliver includes a signed certification statement, a faithful transcription of every field on the source, descriptions of all seals and stamps, and explicit [illegible] markers anywhere the source is unreadable rather than a guess. The reviewer signs the certification under their own name.
