Certified Croatian to English Translation for USCIS

Every Croatian-language document filed with USCIS needs a complete English translation and a signed translator certification (8 CFR 103.2(b)(3)). Notarization is not required.

Multi-page documents receive lower per-page rates. Croatia can also issue multilingual international extracts; we translate any remaining Croatian entries. Croatia is a party to the Hague Apostille Convention — if your document carries an apostille, we translate it too.

Every certified translation includes: complete translation of text, stamps, and annotations; dates converted from Croatian month names; names exactly as written; the signed Translation Accuracy Certificate; 24-hour delivery for most 1–2 page documents; and the USCIS acceptance guarantee.

Getting Croatian Right

Croatian standard, native translators. Croatian, Serbian, Bosnian, and Montenegrin are closely related, but each has its own standard. Croatian uses the Latin alphabet, the ijekavian form (mlijeko, not mleko), and its own vocabulary (kruh, tisuća). Your project goes to a native Croatian translator — so it reads as Croatian to Croatian readers and authorities.

Dates converted correctly. Croatian documents use Slavic month names — siječanj (January), veljača (February), ožujak (March), and so on. Every date is converted precisely.

Names exactly as written. We keep č, ć, đ, š, and ž as in the source and note your passport spelling on request (Đurić / Djuric), so your file stays consistent.

Any format, including scans and photos. For certified documents, a clear scan or phone photo is enough. We translate every stamp, seal, and handwritten note.

English to Croatian Translation for Use in Croatia

Croatian Americans, Canadians, and Australians often need their records accepted in Croatia — to register a birth or marriage, apply for or confirm Croatian citizenship (including routes for descendants of emigrants), buy or inherit property, or move to Croatia. Foreign buyers of Croatian real estate need contracts and supporting documents translated too.

We translate birth, marriage, divorce, death, and naturalization certificates, powers of attorney, court orders, and company documents into Croatian.

Before you order: Croatian authorities generally require translations by a permanent court interpreter (stalni sudski tumač) and an apostille on the original. Requirements vary by office — confirm with the office or consulate handling your case, and we'll prepare the translation to fit.

Croatian Genealogy and Parish Records

Croatian family records span several languages. Depending on the region and period, parish registers (matične knjige) may be written in:

• Latin — common in older Catholic registers
• Croatian
• Italian — in Istria and Dalmatia under Venetian and later Italian administration
• German or Hungarian — during the Austro-Hungarian period

We translate baptisms, marriages, and deaths, emigration records, and letters — including handwritten entries — for family research, citizenship, and inheritance. Send a clear scan and we'll quote based on length and legibility.
