Certified Translation of Certificate of Residence from Vietnamese into English

1. What is a Certificate of Residence?

A Certificate of Residence (confirmation of place of residence) is an official document issued by local police authorities in Vietnam. It verifies that an individual is currently living, or has previously lived, at a specific address.

This document is commonly required in legal, administrative, immigration, employment, or study-abroad procedures. However, since it is issued in Vietnamese, applicants must provide a certified English translation to foreign organizations, embassies, or schools.

2. Why do you need a certified translation?

Many institutions will not accept a simple translation. They require a certified or notarized translation to guarantee that the English version is accurate and legally valid.

Typical purposes include:

  • Visa and study abroad applications – Embassies often request a notarized English translation of residence documents.

  • Immigration and naturalization – Proof of residence is part of settlement or citizenship procedures.

  • Employment abroad – Companies may require certified translations for HR records or insurance.

  • Legal purposes – Marriage registration, property purchases, or other legal transactions involving foreign authorities.

⚠️ Without notarization, translations may be rejected, causing delays in your application.

3. Requirements for translating and notarizing a Certificate of Residence

When handling this type of document, the translation must:

  • Ensure 100% accuracy – Names, ID/Passport numbers, addresses, and dates must be exact.

  • Follow legal terminology – The wording should be formal, professional, and consistent with international legal standards.

  • Match formatting – Layout and structure must reflect the original document.

  • Be notarized or certified – The translation is stamped and signed by a notary or certified translation agency, ensuring its legal validity abroad.

4. Process of certified translation

  1. Submission – Client provides the original or scanned Certificate of Residence.

  2. Professional translation – Experienced legal translators render the document into English.

  3. Proofreading and verification – A second linguist reviews for accuracy and consistency.

  4. Certification / Notarization – The translation is stamped, signed, and attached to the original document (or a copy) by a notary public.

  5. Delivery – Clients receive the certified translation in paper form or digital copy, depending on requirements.
