French-language background check documents are issued in France, Belgium, Switzerland, Canada, Haiti, and across Francophone Africa by national identity and records authorities, each with its own layout, seals, and reference numbers.
Every translation ships with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy that satisfies USCIS, courts, universities, and other U.S. authorities — and the translation itself is done by a native French speaker who reads these documents every week.
Script and spelling
French uses the Latin alphabet with accents and ligatures (é, è, ç, œ) that must be preserved in names exactly as issued.
Names, rendered exactly
French civil records frequently print family names in full capitals and may include multiple given names; the translation keeps the complete name as registered.
Dates and calendars
Dates are day-first and often written out in words on civil records — each is converted to an unambiguous English date.
Stamps, seals, and margins
Every stamp, seal, registry reference, and marginal note on the background check is translated or described — nothing on the page is skipped as decoration.
Delivered as one PDF: translation, signed Certificate of Accuracy, and a copy of the source.
For use in the United States
USCIS filings, courts, universities, employers, and licensing boards — delivered with the signed certification U.S. authorities ask for.
For use in France
Authorities and institutions abroad receive your background check in French, prepared by a native speaker so nothing reads like a machine draft.
