Prism Linguistics provides certified English translation of the French-language civil records that Bandjabi speakers from Gabon and the Republic of Congo file with USCIS, and Bandjabi interpreters, usually by phone or video, for immigration interviews, court hearings and medical appointments in Round Rock and across the United States.
Our Bandjabi interpreters in Round Rock are experienced, professional linguists who work with immigration officers, courts, hospitals and attorneys by phone or video, and who are assigned when the speaker needs Bandjabi rather than French.
Bandjabi is a small language, and that is why courts call us for it. Bandjabi, also written Njebi or Nzebi, is a Bantu language of Gabon and the neighbouring Republic of Congo, with about 140,000 native speakers on figures gathered between 2000 and 2007, spoken by the Nzebi people in several closely related dialects. Most Bandjabi speakers who reach the United States also speak French, and for most appointments a French interpreter is what gets booked. That serves an adult schooled in French; it does not serve an elderly relative, or a witness who needs to describe a village matter in the language it happened in, and for those the office needs a Bandjabi speaker. In-person Bandjabi interpreters are very scarce in the United States, so the assignment is almost always by phone or video, and we say so at intake rather than promise otherwise. No state runs a court certification exam in Bandjabi, so courts use a qualified Bandjabi interpreter, and it is one of the rare languages courts come to us for. Hospitals that take federal funds must provide a Bandjabi interpreter at no cost to the patient. At USCIS the Bandjabi interpreter renders each answer without softening or explaining it.
For an in-person assignment in Round Rock we assign a Bandjabi interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. We serve courts, attorneys, hospitals, USCIS applicants and private individuals; we are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor, and we say so up front.
Prism Linguistics supplies professional Bandjabi interpreters in Round Rock for immigration interviews, court hearings, medical appointments and attorney consultations, almost always by phone or video, with certified translation of the records that go with those cases.
Round Rock is in Williamson County. Criminal and civil matters from the city are heard in the Williamson County district courts and the county courts at law in Georgetown, while the Round Rock Municipal Court handles Class C misdemeanors, traffic and city code violations. Courts and attorneys here come to Prism Linguistics for court interpreting and certified translation for USCIS and immigration filings, and above all for rare languages other providers cannot supply.
Round Rock Independent School District reports 92 languages other than English spoken by its families, naming Hindi, Tamil, Vietnamese, Arabic, Spanish and Amharic among them, and provides translation support at every campus. Dell Technologies' global headquarters and Baylor Scott & White Medical Center in Round Rock add clinical and corporate demand, and a sizeable Telugu-speaking community has settled around them. Prism's only office is in New York; its interpreters and translators work nationwide, and a linguist based in or near Round Rock is assigned for in-person work.
Local Bandjabi interpreting services in Round Rock and the surrounding area come from the same nationwide network of Bandjabi interpreters, so a court, clinic or attorney in any of the cities below books a Bandjabi interpreter the same way.
Our only office is in New York. For in-person work in Round Rock we assign a Bandjabi interpreter who is based in or near the city, and the same Bandjabi linguists cover the surrounding area:
Certified Bandjabi to English translation at Prism is, in practice, certified translation of French civil records from Gabon and Congo, the acte de naissance, marriage and school certificates, with any Bandjabi letter or statement alongside, each signed with a Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Bandjabi speakers hold French documents. Neither Gabon nor the Republic of Congo issues civil records in Bandjabi, so the file that reaches us is in French: the acte de naissance, held at the mairie of the commune or, in Libreville, of the arrondissement where the birth was registered, and issued as a copie or an extrait on request; marriage records from the same office; and school and university certificates. A copy legalised for use abroad passes through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Libreville, and USCIS wants the whole page translated, legalisation stamps included, not a summary of the entries. Bandjabi appears in a file only where a family wrote it themselves, in a letter or a statement, and a Bandjabi translator renders it alongside the French. Names are spelled to match the passport, with any variant on the original noted.
Every certified Bandjabi translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet USCIS requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Round Rock gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Bandjabi, also written Ndjabi, is a Bantu language of southern Gabon with a modest number of speakers. It is not a documentary language: civil records in Gabon are issued in French, so a birth certificate or court paper from that region reaches us in French rather than Bandjabi. Where the language does come up is interpreting, occasionally for asylum interviews or medical appointments involving recent arrivals. We source those interpreters on request and confirm availability before confirming a booking.
Yes. Gabon and the Republic of Congo issue civil records in French, so we translate the acte de naissance in full, mairie stamps and any legalisation from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs included, and deliver it with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy. Any Bandjabi-language letter or statement in the file is translated alongside it, with names spelled to match the passport.
The choice depends on the speaker. An adult schooled in French usually prefers a French interpreter; an older relative or a witness describing events at home may need Bandjabi, and we can arrange a Bandjabi speaker, almost always by phone or video because in-person Bandjabi interpreters are very scarce in the United States. No state certifies court interpreters in Bandjabi, so courts use a qualified Bandjabi interpreter. We are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor.
No. Our only office is in New York. Bandjabi translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work.

Every assignment follows our TEP workflow for written work – translation, editing, proofreading – with a free revision policy, and every interpreting booking is managed by a dedicated coordinator to meet regulatory and client requirements.
Our Bandjabi interpreters are vetted for fluency, subject-matter expertise and professional ethics, and certified translation work is handled by certified translators who are members of provincial bodies under CTTIC.
