Birth Certificate Translations for Official Use
If your birth certificate is not in English, an Australian application may require an English translation. The Department of Home Affairs says translations completed in Australia should include the translator’s NAATI practitioner number.
CertiTranslate assigns the document to a NAATI-certified translator and supplies a certified digital copy. Always check the document checklist or instructions from the organisation receiving your translation.
