Are you in the process of relocating from Russia or another Russian-speaking country to the United States? We know it can be a stressful experience, especially when one incorrect translation can delay your case and make you spend more than what you planned for. Once your documents are in order, the next step is making sure they are translated correctly, because USCIS and many U.S. institutions do not accept documents in foreign languages.
Our certified Russian translation services help streamline immigration, legal, academic, and professional applications with fast, accurate results. We provide certified translation from Russian to English for civil records, educational credentials, and government-issued documents prepared for USCIS, U.S. universities, credential evaluation agencies, and other official uses.

For many people, translation is not just a matter of paperwork. It is the step that connects the life you built at home, in Russia, to the life you are trying to build in the United States.
All personal documents are vital legally and administratively. Civil registry records, educational certificates, and government-issued materials establish your personal history across different categories. When you want to use them in the U.S., you must translate them accurately and consider their context. That is why Russian document translation is about carrying your identity from one system into another without losing meaning along the way.
Our team works with civil registry records, educational documents, and government-issued materials issued across Russia and other Russian-speaking countries. Each project is completed by a certified Russian translator and prepared in accordance with the requirements of USCIS, U.S. universities, and credential evaluation agencies, ensuring accuracy, completeness, and correct formatting.

I used Motaword for a certified translation of documents I needed for visa purposes. I received their contact details from my Immigration Lawyer. It was an easy, fast, and seamless experience. I strongly recommend their services.

I submitted a document that needed urgent translation to multiple providers, but Motaword was the only one that could complete it in time, and their support was very responsive and helpful. The USCIS office accepted the certified translation. I will be a customer again.

The translation requirement applies to any foreign-language document submitted to USCIS, regardless of where the document is issued.

If you are unsure about a specific document, it is best to follow USCIS instructions or consult your immigration attorney.
