Verdacert translates Latvian birth, marriage, and death certificates issued by civil registry offices (dzimtsarakstu nodaļa), registry statements, criminal record certificates, diplomas, and court judgments - plus Soviet-era Latvian SSR records, often in Russian - for US immigration, university, and credential-evaluation filings.

What our reviewers know about your documents
Latvian uses the Latin alphabet with diacritics (ā, č, ē, ģ, ī, ķ, ļ, ņ, š, ū, ž). Latvian grammar adapts every name, so a foreign name is written in Latvianized form in civil records (Džons for John), while the passport may also show the original form; Verdacert gives the source spelling and notes the original so the names align on USCIS forms. The personal code (personas kods) is transcribed exactly. Dates use the day-month-year order.
Common source countries: Latvia.
