Certified translation of a birth certificate is one of the most frequently ordered services at translation agencies. It is required for marrying a foreigner, university enrollment abroad, inheritance matters, and residence registration.
When do you need a birth certificate translation?
The most common situations are registering a foreign certificate at the Polish Civil Registry, preparing documents for marriage abroad, citizenship and residence matters, university admission, and inheritance formalities.

How much does birth certificate translation cost?
Short-form birth certificate translation costs 55–80 PLN. Full-form: 100–150 PLN. Birth certificate from Ukrainian: 130 PLN.
The price depends on the document form. Full-form copies are more expensive as they include official annotations.
What documents should you bring?
You need the original birth certificate or its copy issued by the Civil Registry Office. We accept Polish and foreign documents, including from Ukraine, Russia, and Belarus.
The original is required for inspection when collecting the translation.
How long does the translation take?
Standard turnaround for birth certificate translation is 1–2 business days. Express service: same day.
We complete translations from Ukrainian and Russian particularly quickly, thanks to extensive experience.
Which form of the birth certificate is needed?
The Civil Registry issues short and full forms. The short form is usually enough for simpler formalities, but full form with complete data and annotations is more often needed for citizenship, court or more complex foreign procedures.
If you are unsure which version to order, send a scan of your existing document and state where it will be filed.
