Where it gets filed

A lease doing work far from home.

Rental agreements get translated for reasons the landlord never imagined: proving a couple lived together, establishing residence for a visa, or arguing a dispute in a new country’s court. Each use reads the same page differently — and needs all of it.

USCIS and residence evidence

A joint lease is classic evidence that a marriage is real or that residence was continuous. Officers read for both names, the address, and the dates — exactly the fields we render most carefully.

Visa and residence files

Consulates and residence programs ask for proof of housing at both ends of a move. A certified translation of the lease answers the question in their language.

Courts and disputes

Deposit fights and eviction defenses turn on clauses. The translation mirrors the agreement’s terms without interpretation, so the argument stays about the lease, not the translator.

Employers and relocation

Relocation reimbursements and expense files need the lease’s amounts and dates legible to HR and finance. Certified translation closes the file the first time.

What gets translated

The tenancy, term by term.

A lease is small print with large consequences. The translation carries every operative detail — and resists the temptation to convert anything.

Parties and the property

Landlord, tenants, and the property description rendered exactly — for residence evidence, the tenant names are the whole point.

Term, dates, and renewals

Start, end, renewal, and notice periods carried across precisely; timelines are what reviewers reconstruct.

Amounts in their currency

Rent and deposits stated in the original currency, unconverted — a translation that converts money has invented a number.

Clauses and house rules

Obligations, restrictions, and penalty clauses translated completely, including the annexed rules leases love to hide.

Signatures and stamps

Signature blocks, dates, and any registration stamps described in place — execution is part of the evidence.

Addenda and receipts

Amendments, inventory lists, and rent receipts translated alongside when your file leans on them.

Before you order

Making a lease work as evidence.

Joint names carry the weight

For bona fide marriage evidence, the lease matters because both names are on it. If yours lists one spouse, pair it with documents that put both people at the address — utility records, registrations — and translate them as a set.

Receipts complete the story

A lease proves an arrangement existed; rent receipts prove it was lived. For continuous-residence questions, a run of receipts translated alongside the lease is stronger than either alone — and by word count, receipts cost very little.

Informal leases still translate

Handwritten and unregistered agreements are common in much of the world and still get filed as evidence. We translate them as they are, notations and all; what weight they carry is the reviewer’s call, but illegibility should never be the reason they fail.

How it works

Upload to filing-ready — usually overnight.

Photograph or scan it

Take a clear photo or scan of your rental agreement and upload it. The word count and the exact total show before you pay — no account needed.

A specialist linguist takes it

Your file goes to a native speaker who works with this document type every week and knows its stamps, layouts, and abbreviations on sight.

Reviewed, then certified

A second linguist checks names, dates, numbers, and layout against the original. Only then is the Certificate of Accuracy signed.

Delivered as one PDF

Translation, certificate, and a copy of the source in a single file — ready to attach to your filing or forward to whoever asked for it.

Starting at$24.95

Pricing is by word count. Standard leases run a few pages, so most orders land modestly above the starting price of $24.95 — the exact total shows before you pay, addenda included only if you add them.

FAQ

The questions that actually come up.

The ones we hear most often, answered by our dispatch and project-management teams.

Can't find it here?

01Will USCIS accept the lease translation as evidence of our shared residence?

A certified translation with a signed Certificate of Accuracy is the accepted format, and joint leases are among the standard documents in bona fide marriage and residence filings. What the evidence proves is weighed with the rest of your file — translating the receipts and registrations around it usually strengthens the story.

02Do you convert the rent into dollars?

No. Amounts stay in the currency the lease states — converting them would put a number into evidence that the document does not contain. If a reviewer wants dollar context, that is a separate exchange-rate exhibit, not a translation choice.

03Our lease is handwritten and was never registered anywhere.

We translate it exactly as written, including the informalities. Unregistered private leases are the norm in many countries, and reviewers know it; the translation’s job is to make yours fully legible, notations, corrections, and all.

04Only my spouse signed the lease. Is translating it still worth it?

Often yes — as one thread in a residence story rather than the whole proof. Pair it with documents placing both of you at the address and translate them together so names and the address render identically. Which mix suffices is a strategy question for your attorney.

05How is the price calculated?

By word count. Upload the lease, we count the words, and the exact total shows before you pay — starting at $24.95. Attach receipts or addenda and the quote itemizes each.

06Can I send phone photos of the lease pages?

Yes — every page, flat and sharp, signatures and stamps in frame. Multi-page leases lose pages in photography constantly; check the page numbers before uploading and the order will not stall.
