Turkish single-status certificates submitted for apostille — what reviewers look for, and what we attach.
Single-status certificates issued by Turkish-speaking jurisdictions are among the most-translated civil documents in US apostille filings. Single-status certificates — also called certificates of no impediment to marriage, شهادة العزوبية, certificat de célibat, or evlenme ehliyet belgesi — confirm that the holder is legally free to marry. USCIS requires the certified English translation for K-1 fiancé(e) visa petitions, K-3 spouse-visa cases involving a foreign-issued single-status certificate, and most foreign-marriage filings where the spouse will subsequently sponsor a US immigration benefit.
Turkish is the official language of Türkiye. Verdacert translates Turkish civil status records (nüfus cüzdanı), marriage records, apostilled court documents, and academic credentials for US-based immigration, court, and university use. Verdacert's reviewer pool covers Istanbul Turkish, with country-specific document conventions from Türkiye, Cyprus.
Turkish uses a Latin-based alphabet with diacritics (ı, ö, ç, ş, ü, ğ). Names are transcribed exactly as they appear; where transliteration into a non-diacritic spelling is required for USCIS form alignment, both versions are noted.
Verdacert coordinates apostille filing through the relevant US Secretary of State for documents being used abroad. Pricing includes our service fee plus state pass-through fees (which vary by state).
For single-status certificate translations specifically, our reviewers focus on short validity windows that force re-issuance close to the filing date and lebanese certificates issued by religious courts vs civil notaries — uscis prefers civil where available, 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.
