What to know about a Japanese divorce certificate translation
Which Japanese divorce record you may hold
In Japan a divorce is recorded by the municipal office of the family's registered domicile (honseki-chi). The usual proof is the family register, either the full version (Koseki Tohon, all household members) or the extract (Koseki Shohon, one person). Some offices also issue a Certificate of Acceptance of Notification of Divorce (Rikon juri shomeisho). Older registers are handwritten or typed vertically, and newer ones are digitized and typed across. A move to a new domicile can leave the earlier entries off the new register. We translate the version you were issued, complete, front and back where the back carries anything.
Where the translation is accepted
Texliff's certified Japanese translations are accepted by USCIS, the National Visa Center, state agencies, DMVs, schools and universities, courts and more. Officers reading a Japanese divorce record look for the date the notification was accepted, since a divorce there takes effect only once the municipal office accepts it. They match both spouses' names to the passport and the earlier marriage record. Courts read the entry as proof of freedom to remarry. Every date written by imperial era is converted to its Western date. The signed statement of accuracy is what each office files with the translation.

Upload the register, receive a certified PDF
Take a photo or a scan of the family register or the notification certificate, front and back. The word count sets the price and it shows before you order. A native Japanese translator who works on civil records translates it, and a second linguist checks the names, the era dates and the notation of the divorce. You follow each step in your dashboard. The signed PDF arrives with a Certificate of Accuracy, with a mailed hard copy on request. Rush options are available.
What the translator checks on a Japanese divorce record
Family names come first on Japanese records, and the translation spells each name the way the passport spells it. Era dates such as Heisei 2 or Reiwa 1 become Western dates, for the divorce and for the earlier marriage. The entry that records the divorce is translated in full, with the date of notification and the date it was accepted kept apart. Register structure stays visible, so the head of the register and the household entries keep their places. The municipal office's seal and the official's title are described where they sit. Reference numbers are copied exactly.

Japanese divorce certificate questions, answered.
The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.
Can't find it here?
01Is a Japanese divorce certificate translation accepted by USCIS?
Yes. Every certified translation includes a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy meeting USCIS requirements, and the same format is accepted by courts, universities, and licensing boards.
02How are Japanese names spelled in the English translation?
Japanese names run family name first, and official records are organized around the family register rather than individual certificates; the translation preserves the register structure. Japanese records mix kanji, hiragana, and katakana; names are romanized carefully, since kanji readings are not always predictable, and we match any existing passport spelling.
03How are dates converted?
Japanese documents are dated by imperial era — Heisei 2 is 1990, Reiwa 1 is 2019 — and every era date is converted to its Western equivalent.
04How much does a Japanese divorce certificate translation cost?
Pricing is by word count, not by page — a short document costs less than a dense one, and you see the exact total before paying. Certified translation starts at $24.95.
