Certified Translation Services in Jacksonville, FL
Jacksonville has two things that shape its document work: a large Navy presence, with the overseas marriage and birth records that come with it, and one of the largest Filipino-American communities on the East Coast, long connected to naval service.
It is also where Florida's Bureau of Vital Statistics is based, so state birth and death certificates originate here.

PSA documents and Navy family records
Philippine civil records are issued by the Philippine Statistics Authority on security paper, and the older NSO-issued certificates are still in circulation. Both are legitimate; the translation names the issuing authority as printed. PSA documents are usually in English already, which means many Filipino clients need certification of a copy rather than a translation — worth checking before ordering.
Navy families bring overseas marriage records from Japan, Italy, Spain, Bahrain and elsewhere. Japanese koseki family register extracts are a common item and are a household register rather than a birth certificate, which the translation makes clear.
Duval County Circuit Court receives translated evidence and the Clerk of Courts holds the records.

When you need certification, not translation
PSA certificates, most Indian documents and records from other English-language jurisdictions do not need translating.
Send the document before ordering and we will tell you plainly whether a translation is required. We would rather turn down an unnecessary job than take money for one.
