CAPE CORAL, FL — November 14, 2026 - Brazilian birth certificate translation at Brazil Usa Translations covers the full Portuguese document, with a signed Certificate of Accuracy for USCIS filings. The company delivers within 24 hours, and many applicants receive their PDF the same day. Brazilian families send a scanned PDF file or a clear photo of the original certificate. The client then receives one PDF file that includes the translation, the original and the signed Certificate of Accuracy with a verifiable QR code for each document.

The certified translation includes the registry details, the parents' names, and any notes in the margins. Names and dates must be identical to the Brazilian Portuguese record, and so must every place it lists. Every stamp, side note, and handwritten entry has to be accounted for as well, so the officer sees exactly what the original says, with nothing left out.

In Brazil, the birth certificate is called a certidão de nascimento. Families use it to show identity and parentage in immigration cases, including marriage-based green card applications, K-1 fiance visas, adjustment of status, and consular immigrant visa processing. It is also used for the children named on family-based and employment-based petitions, where a birth certificate establishes the parent-child relationship.

The USCIS translation requirement is written out in 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). A document in Portuguese must have a complete English translation, accompanied by a signed statement confirming that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent to translate Portuguese into English. A simple summary of the birth details does not meet that requirement.

A certified Brazilian birth certificate translation for USCIS needs a Certificate of Accuracy; it does not have to be a tradução juramentada prepared by a Brazilian sworn translator.

"I've often seen Brazilian families get their immigration applications delayed just for small details on the birth certificate that weren't translated properly, or at all," said Ivy Pires of Brazil Usa Translations.

Brasileiros who receive the finished translation will see that it keeps the same layout as the Brazilian original, so a USCIS officer can read the two side by side.
