Birth Certificate Translation in Oregon
Oregon birth certificates are issued by the Oregon Health Authority's Center for Health Statistics and apostilled by the Secretary of State in Salem.
Beyond Portland, the Willamette Valley has two communities whose records are unusual even by the standards of this work.

Russian Old Believers and Chuukese families
Around Woodburn lives a long-established community of Russian Old Believers, many of whose families passed through China, Brazil or Turkey before settling in Oregon. Their older civil records can come from any of those countries, in several languages, and occasionally in pre-reform Russian spelling.
Salem has a sizeable community from Chuuk, in the Federated States of Micronesia, living in the US under the Compact of Free Association. Their civil records are usually in English, and the question is more often obtaining a certified copy than translating one.
Mexican records
Mexican actas are still the largest group, heading to the Portland field office. The electronic version printed from Mexico's online registry is translated with its verification code intact.
