When to place an Apostille on a birth certificate?

The placing of an Apostille on a birth certificate is legalizing of the document on the part of the country that has issued it. Thus, no other additional legalization procedures are required for the foreign countries where the document has to be used. The placing of an Apostille on a birth certificate as legalization is valid for the countries that have ratified the so-called Hague Convention. Bulgaria also is a party to this international treaty. Regarding the question where is an Apostille to be placed, consideration should be given to a number of other possibilities arising from the presence of corresponding regulations on the territory of the European Union and the concluded and active bilateral agreements for legal assistance between Bulgaria and other countries.

The translation of a birth certificate should be performed by qualified and experienced translators, because this is one of the most important personal documents. In order no problems to occur with the verifying of your civil status before the foreign country, the translation of the birth certificate must be very precise and accurate, and no approximate interpretation should be allowed.

Translation of a death certificate – fast and quality service

Often in our daily lives we have to present a translation of a death certificate of someone close or a relative before authorities in a foreign country. In such situations, a fast reaction and shortened time limits are necessary.

In addition to this, usually an express translation and legalization of a death certificate is required. Sigma Translations offers for you our over 20-year experience in the field of linguistic and legalization services. In order for the service to be performed with maximum speed, it is best to contact our office so we can consult you about which are the mandatory details of the document. In general, these are:

• Information related to who issues the death certificate – the concrete region, municipality, public officer, etc:
• Date, outgoing number and stamp;
• Information about the deceased person – personal details, address, sex, family status;
• Information about the time and place of death.

The translation of a death certificate should be performed by a sworn translator and on a letterhead of a translation agency. The translator must place their signature on the document, and the agency – a stamp certifying the official translation.

Translation of a civil status certificate by Sigma Translations

Translation of a civil status certificate means all documents related to the changes in the lives of citizens – birth, death, marriage. This includes a wide specter of documents, reports and certificates.

Regarding occurred events such as birth and death, the verification documents are respectively birth and death certificates. When it comes to family status, however, the options are way more numerous.

The most sought after service in this regard is the translation of a marriage certificate. This document may be required in a number of cases such as employment in a foreign country, applying to receive citizenship and others. In this aspect, there are two hypotheses – a marriage certificate issued in Bulgaria, or a document issued by a foreign country.

The translation of a divorce certificate requires precision because this is a court decision. Correspondingly, this document may be issued by a Bulgarian or by a foreign court. In the two cases, the procedures for its translation and legalization are different.

The translation of a certificate of absence of obstacles to marriage is a more rarely met service in our country, but sometimes the presenting of such a document is required. This is most often necessary when marrying a foreigner. In such a case, usually a form declaration is to be filled in. Sigma Translations has a rich experience with the translation and legalization of documents verifying civil status.
