Document background
The Translation Affidavit serves as a critical document in the United States legal system when foreign language documents need to be submitted to courts, government agencies, or other official bodies. This document type is required when translated documents must be certified as accurate and complete for legal proceedings, immigration matters, academic purposes, or business transactions. The Translation Affidavit includes the translator's qualifications, a detailed description of the original document, and a sworn statement attesting to the translation's accuracy, all subject to penalty of perjury under U.S. law.
