A certified Tigre translation is a complete, word-for-word translation of an official Tigre document into English (or English into Tigre), accompanied by a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy from the translator or translation company. The certificate confirms the translator's competence and the completeness of the translation. USCIS, US federal courts, US universities, credential evaluators, banks, and most state agencies require certified translations for any non-English document submitted in an official process.
The most common reason USCIS issues a Request for Evidence (RFE) on a translation is a missing or incorrectly formatted Certificate of Translation Accuracy. Every certified Tigre translation we deliver includes the certificate on Prism Linguistics letterhead with the translator's signature, our corporate seal, and the date: the format USCIS officers, court clerks, and university registrars expect to see.
Every certified Tigre translation we deliver includes:
Our certified Tigre translators handle the document types most commonly required for US immigration, legal, academic, medical, and personal use, including clinical records and patient consent forms through our healthcare translation team:
Our certified Tigre translations are commonly accepted by:
Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution. We recommend confirming any institution-specific certification requirements with your attorney, university, or credential evaluator before submission.
When applying for a green card, US citizenship, asylum, work permit, or any other USCIS benefit, every non-English supporting document must be accompanied by a certified English translation. That includes Tigre birth certificates, marriage certificates, divorce decrees, foreign police clearances, and military records. Prism Linguistics provides certified Tigre translations prepared to meet the USCIS translation requirements for documents submitted with immigration applications. Learn more about our dedicated USCIS translation services and immigration translation services.
US universities and credential-evaluation agencies require certified English translations of foreign academic credentials, including diplomas, academic transcripts, syllabi, and course descriptions. Our certified Tigre translations are commonly accepted by US universities and by every major credential evaluator: WES (World Education Services), ECE (Educational Credential Evaluators), IEE (International Education Evaluations), and Educational Perspectives. Tigre is widely spoken across Eritrea, and we translate academic records from every Tigre-speaking jurisdiction in that region.
For US court proceedings — civil, criminal, family, immigration, and probate — we provide certified Tigre translations of evidence, contracts, court orders, affidavits, and supporting documents. Notarisation and apostille support are available on request. See our broader legal translation capabilities for litigation, contracts, and discovery, and our Tigre interpreter service for depositions, hearings, and court appearances.
These three terms are often confused, especially by clients used to European or Latin American legal systems. In the United States the distinctions are:
If you are submitting a Tigre document to a foreign embassy, court, or government body, request a sworn or notarised version explicitly when you ask for your quote.
Translation quality matters most when documents are used for immigration, court, academic, or medical decisions. Our process is shaped by what US institutions actually reject: missing certification statements, inconsistent name transliterations, and translator credentials that don't appear on the document. We address all three on every certified project.
Standard one-page civil documents (birth certificates, marriage certificates, divorce decrees, diplomas) are charged on a flat per-page basis from $30 per page, including the signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Longer legal, medical, and technical documents are quoted by word count from $0.12 per word, with a minimum charge of $50 per project.
Optional add-ons: notarisation ($25 flat fee), hard-copy mailing within the US ($15 standard, $35 overnight), same-day rush turnaround (+50% of base price), and apostille coordination (quoted per state).
We confirm the full price in writing before any work begins. Request a free quote for your Tigre document and we will confirm exact pricing and turnaround within one business hour.
Tigre is a Semitic language spoken by around 1.5 million people in northern Eritrea and adjacent parts of Sudan. It's closely related to Tigrinya and Ge'ez but distinct. The US Tigre-speaking community is small, concentrated alongside the broader Eritrean-American population. Our Tigre translation work is occasional and typically tied to USCIS asylum and refugee documentation.

“Fast and professional translation service. USCIS accepted our certified translation without any issues.”
“Excellent communication, quick turnaround and accurate legal translation.”
Yes. Our certified Tigre translations are prepared in the format USCIS officers expect to see. Each translation includes a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy on company letterhead with the translator's signature, our corporate seal, and the date. The most common cause of a USCIS Request for Evidence on a translation is a missing or incorrectly formatted certificate; that is the specific failure mode we engineer against.
Standard one-page civil documents (birth, marriage, divorce, school certificates) are charged on a flat per-page basis starting from $30 per page, including the signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy. Longer legal, medical, and technical projects are quoted by word count from $0.12 per word with a $50 minimum. Notarisation is a $25 flat add-on, hard-copy mailing within the US is $15 standard or $35 overnight, and same-day rush is +50% of the base price.
Standard turnaround for short documents like birth or marriage certificates is 24 to 48 hours. Same-day rush is available for urgent USCIS deadlines, court filings, and university applications, including weekends. Submit before 2pm EST for same-business-day delivery.
Yes. Notarisation is available on request at a $25 flat fee and is sometimes required for state court submissions, certain visa categories, document recording, and international Apostille processes. Notarisation can be included with same-day delivery.
Yes. Our certified Tigre translations are commonly accepted by US universities and by every major credential evaluation agency, including WES, ECE, IEE, and Educational Perspectives. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, so we recommend confirming any institution-specific requirements before submission.
Yes. Our native Tigre translators handle both Tigre to English and English to Tigre certified translations. English to Tigre certifications are commonly used for sworn translations submitted to foreign consulates, courts, and Tigre-speaking government agencies.
In the US, a certified translation is a word-for-word translation accompanied by a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy from the translator or translation company. A notarised translation is a certified translation whose certificate has been signed in front of a notary public. A sworn translation is a concept used in many European, Latin American, and Asian jurisdictions where the translator is appointed by a court; the US does not maintain a sworn-translator registry, so USCIS and US courts accept the certified-translation format.
We provide apostille support on certified Tigre translations destined for use abroad. The apostille is issued by the relevant US state Secretary of State, typically following notarisation. We handle the notarisation and coordinate the apostille submission on your behalf where required.
Yes. Every certified Tigre translation is handled under strict confidentiality. Documents are transferred over secure channels, accessed only by the assigned translator and reviewer, and deleted from our active systems 30 days after delivery on request. Signed Non-Disclosure Agreements are available for legal, medical, and corporate clients.
If USCIS, a court, a university, a credential evaluator, or any other receiving institution requests a clarification or correction to a certified Tigre translation we produced, we revise and re-issue the document at no additional cost. The same translator and reviewer are reassigned where possible so the corrected version stays consistent with the original.
