Certified Swedish death certificate translation services

When settling an estate or submitting documentation for a deceased family member, precision and compliance are essential. Kings of Translation provides certified translations from Swedish to English and English to Swedish prepared by experienced linguists who understand official registry terminology and legal phrasing used in Swedish civil records.

Our certified translations include a formal statement of accuracy signed by the translator or project manager, meeting common requirements for USCIS filings, probate courts, and financial institutions. For sensitive cases, we can add notarization upon request, and we maintain strict data security to safeguard personal information throughout the process.

As a global translation agency known for exceptional customer care and a 98% return rate, we prioritize clarity, responsiveness, and proactive communication. We align the layout to the source document, mirror seals and stamps descriptively, and verify that spellings, diacritics, and registry references are consistently represented to minimize questions from reviewers.

Recognized for quality and professionalism, we are an ATA member and hold a BBB A+ accreditation, reflecting our commitment to ethical standards and service excellence.

A certified translation of a death certificate includes a complete, accurate rendering of the original Swedish text, maintained line-by-line where feasible, with annotations for seals, stamps, and handwritten notes. We attach a signed certification letter attesting to accuracy and completeness, which is typically required by USCIS, courts, and financial institutions.

Standard turnaround is 24–48 hours for most single-page certificates. Pricing starts at $32.90 per page for certified translations, while standard (non-certified) document translation begins at $0.06 per word. You’ll receive a secure PDF by default; hard copies with ink signatures and notarization are available as add-ons when required.

To begin, simply upload a clear scan or photo. Our team reviews legibility, confirms names and dates, and flags any elements that may require clarification. We handle transliteration of Swedish names, place names, and special characters with care, ensuring the translated document is easy to match against original records.

If the translation will be used internationally beyond the United States, let us know the target authority. Requirements can vary—some countries request notarization or an apostille for the certification letter. We advise on options, so the final deliverable aligns with the procedure in the destination jurisdiction.

A translated death certificate is frequently necessary for probate proceedings, inheritance filings, or the transfer of property and financial assets involving a deceased person. When an estate spans multiple countries—such as Sweden and the United States—authorities typically request certified translations to validate key facts and verify identity across legal systems.

Immigration-related cases may also require translation when a family relationship needs to be documented for USCIS. Insurance companies and banks often ask for certified translations before releasing funds or closing accounts. For shipping remains or handling repatriation, consular offices and logistics providers commonly require a certified translation as part of their documentation checklist.

We support cases moving from Sweden to the United States and, equally, documentation traveling from the U.S. to Sweden or other countries. Our certified translations are accepted worldwide, and we tailor deliverables to the expectations of each receiving authority. If you additionally need identity documents, consider our passport translation service for a complete package.

To help reviewers, we reproduce the structure of registry entries and annotate official marks clearly. We recommend providing the most legible copy available and including any alternate spellings known to appear in records. This extra context can reduce queries from clerks, saving time during estate settlement and other sensitive procedures.
