When you need it

Why You May Need a Certified Criminal Record Translation

A foreign criminal record (or equivalent document — e.g. a police certificate, extract from penal register, or Führungszeugnis) must be accompanied by a certified translation for the following common Irish requirements:

  • Irish naturalisation (citizenship): The Department of Justice requires certified translations of criminal records from every country in which the applicant has resided for more than 6 months since age 16.

  • ISD long-stay visa applications: Certain visa categories require evidence of good character, including certified translations of criminal records.

  • Employment vetting: Healthcare workers, teachers, childcare staff, and financial services employees often need to provide certified translations of foreign criminal records for the National Vetting Bureau and employer due diligence processes.

  • Irish court proceedings: Foreign criminal records submitted as evidence must be accompanied by a certified translation.
