Certified K'iche' translation for US filings.
K'iche' is the most widely spoken Mayan language in Guatemala and a frequent language of US asylum and immigration proceedings. Guatemalan civil records are issued in Spanish, so Verdacert translates K'iche'-language community attestations, letters, and declarations together with the Spanish-language RENAP certificates they accompany, for asylum, family-based, and court filings.

What our reviewers know about your documents
K'iche' is written in the Latin alphabet standardized by the Academia de Lenguas Mayas de Guatemala, with glottalized consonants marked by an apostrophe (k', q', ch', tz', t'). Guatemala's national registry (RENAP) issues birth certificates and DPI identity records in Spanish, sometimes with Spanish spellings of K'iche' names; Verdacert translates both the Spanish and K'iche' parts of a packet and notes spelling variants so they are not mistaken for discrepancies. Dates use the day-month-year order.
