All about official translation in canada

Official Translation of Documents in Canada: 

For immigration to Canada, you may need to have your documents translated officially into English or French. Official translation must be done by an authorized translator with an official license from the Canadian government. To translate your Canadian documents officially, you need to first provide a copy of the documents along with their translations to the chosen translator. Then, the authorized translator must submit the translated documents along with their identification to one of the government immigration service offices for verification, endorsement, stamp, and signature. The official translation should include the name and signature of the translator, the date of translation, a brief description of the documents, and the translator's skills. Note that official translation of documents must be accompanied by the original copies of the documents. 

For example, if you need an official translation of your birth certificate for immigration to Canada, you should take your birth certificate along with its official translation to one of the government immigration service offices for the authorized translator's stamp and signature to be placed on the translated birth certificate. It is important to note that official translation of documents is mandatory for immigration to Canada and should be in English or French. It is recommended to contact the Canadian embassy or consulate to obtain accurate information about the process of translating documents.
