When you need it
Why You May Need a Certified Birth Certificate Translation
A birth certificate issued in a language other than English must be accompanied by a certified translation for nearly all Irish administrative and legal purposes. The most common reasons include:
IRP card registration or renewal: Immigration Service Delivery (ISD), operating from 13–14 Burgh Quay, Dublin 2, requires certified translations of identity documents including birth certificates.
Irish citizenship application: The Department of Justice requires certified translations of all supporting documents, including your birth certificate and those of your parents or grandparents.
Passport application (DFA): The Department of Foreign Affairs requires a certified translation if your birth certificate is not in English.
Family reunification and visa applications: Certified translations of birth certificates confirm identity, parentage and nationality for ISD family visa applications.
Marriage registration: The General Register Office may require a certified translation of a foreign birth certificate to verify identity for a marriage licence.
University enrolment: TCD, UCD, DCU, UCC and other Irish universities require certified translations of foreign-language birth certificates submitted as part of an application.
Statement of Accuracy
What Is a Statement of Accuracy?
Ireland does not have a "sworn translator" system. Instead, certified translations carry a signed Statement of Accuracy from the translator. This statement confirms:
"I, [Translator Name], hereby certify that the above is a true, accurate and complete translation of the attached original document. Company registration: Tatkowski Interpreting & Recruitment Limited (CRO 803790). Date: [date]. Contact: contact@tatkowski.com."
No stamp or registry is required under Irish law.
