Certified Japanese birth certificate translation for UK and worldwide

Your birth certificate is a vital record, and accuracy matters. Our certified Japanese birth certificate translation service is tailored for UK Home Office, UKVI, HM Passport Office, and international authorities, with acceptance worldwide. Each translation includes a signed and dated statement on official letterhead, translator credentials, and pagination—delivered as a secure PDF, with optional printed copies upon request.

Pricing is straightforward: certified translations from £29.90 per page, and standard translations from £0.05 per word. Typical turnaround for 1–3 pages is 24 hours, with expedited options available for urgent submissions. If you are navigating visas or residency, see our broader birth certificate translations and full certified translation services to cover additional documents.

Kings of Translation is trusted by clients worldwide thanks to rigorous quality control and attentive support. Native-level linguists translate and format your document faithfully, preserving official stamps, seals, and notations. Our agency is an ATA member and maintains BBB A+ standards of service, with secure ordering, encryption, and a customer-first approach reflected in our 98% return rate.

Japanese documents can include kanji, kana, and romanised names. We follow accepted romanisation conventions (such as Hepburn) and—critically—match the spellings in your passport whenever required. We handle name order (family name first), long vowels (ō/ū), furigana, and handwritten notes. All seals (hanko) and annotations are documented, and any unclear fields are flagged for your confirmation before certification.

Dates and place names are translated with precision. If a date appears using a Japanese era (e.g., Reiwa), we provide the Gregorian equivalent and note the original format for clarity. Municipal offices, wards, and prefectures are rendered using standard English forms. Where relevant, we add translator notes to explain administrative references or abbreviations, ensuring your translation is clear and acceptable to caseworkers.

Your final package includes a signed certificate of accuracy, our contact details, and a secure PDF. Printed hard copies can be couriered domestically or internationally. If you also need identity pages translated for travel or visas, view our passport translation service to complete your application set with consistent formatting and spellings.
