Prism Linguistics provides certified English translation of Moldavan documents, whether written in Romanian, in Soviet-era Cyrillic or in Russian, and Moldavan interpreters for court, medical and USCIS appointments in West Palm Beach and nationwide.
Our Moldavan interpreters in West Palm Beach are experienced, professional linguists who work in hospitals, state courts and USCIS field offices, and who are matched to the language the person actually uses at home: Romanian, Russian or both.
Romanian, Russian or both? Ask before you book. A Moldavan speaker from the capital will follow a Romanian interpreter without difficulty; the standard language is the same on both banks of the Prut. But many older Moldavan speakers, and most people from Transnistria or Gagauzia, are more at ease in Russian, and a witness may answer in Romanian and quote a document in Russian in the same breath. We ask which language the person actually uses at home and, where the answer is both, send a Moldavan interpreter who has both.
Working-age arrivals rarely need a Moldavan interpreter; their parents do. About 56,000 US residents were born in Moldova on 2022 American Community Survey estimates, with the largest numbers in California, New York and Washington state, and most of them identify as Romanian. No state runs a court certification exam in Romanian or Moldavan, so courts use a qualified Moldavan interpreter and come to a private agency like ours for it; we are not a court-appointed vendor. A federally funded hospital must provide a Moldavan interpreter at no cost. At USCIS the Moldavan interpreter renders each answer as given, in whichever language it came.
For an in-person assignment in West Palm Beach we assign a Moldavan 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 Moldavan interpreters in West Palm Beach for medical appointments, court hearings, depositions and USCIS interviews, in person, by phone or by video, together with certified translation of the Romanian and Russian records that go with those cases.
West Palm Beach is the seat of Palm Beach County and the base of Florida's Fifteenth Judicial Circuit, which hears felonies, major civil suits, family and probate matters and appeals from below. Misdemeanors, traffic cases and smaller civil claims stay in the Palm Beach County Court. Prism interprets at both levels and prepares certified translations for attorneys and for USCIS filings.
The School District of Palm Beach County publishes program information in Spanish, Haitian Creole and Portuguese, runs dual language programs in Spanish and Haitian Creole, and reports ESOL students speaking more than 146 languages. Behind Haitian Creole sit the Mayan languages of the county's Guatemalan community: the Guatemalan-Maya Center in nearby Lake Worth Beach works in Mam, Q'anjob'al and Popti, with K'iche' and Awakateko also spoken locally. Courts come to Prism for exactly those, which most providers cannot supply. Our only office is in New York, and in-person work goes to a linguist near West Palm Beach.
Moldavan interpreting services in West Palm Beach and the surrounding area come from the same nationwide network, so a court, clinic or attorney in any of the cities below books an interpreter through a single intake.
Our only office is in New York. For in-person work in West Palm Beach we assign a Moldavan interpreter who is based in or near the city, and the same Moldavan linguists cover the surrounding area:
Certified Moldavan to English translation covers whatever the file holds: a Soviet ZAGS certificate in Russian and Moldavan Cyrillic, a Romanian-language record from the Public Services Agency, the multilingual extract and the archival certificate issued when an original is gone, each rendered by a qualified Moldavan translator with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.
Moldavan, Moldovan, Romanian: one language, three names, two alphabets. Moldova's parliament settled the naming in March 2023 by making Romanian the sole state language, but the records a Moldavan applicant holds were issued under every earlier rule. A birth certificate from before 1991 comes from a Soviet ZAGS office in Russian and in Moldavan Cyrillic; one from the 1990s onward is in Romanian in Latin script, issued today through the Agenția Servicii Publice, which also issues a multilingual extract and online duplicates. USCIS does not need the duplicate; it needs a complete Moldavan translation of what you hold, both languages of a bilingual Soviet form and every stamp included.
Ion on the passport, Ivan on the birth certificate. Soviet records often wrote Moldavan names in their Russian form, so Ion appears as Ivan and Dumitru as Dmitri, and the Cyrillic can be romanised the Russian way or the Romanian way. A Moldavan translator who picks the Russian romanisation produces a name that matches nothing else in the file. We transliterate to the Latin spelling on the Moldovan passport, keep the diacritics, and note the Russian form on the original.
Every certified Moldavan 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 West Palm Beach gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in the country.

Moldavan, more often written Moldovan, is the language of Moldova, and linguistically it is Romanian. The distinction is political rather than practical: a Moldovan birth certificate is translated by a Romanian linguist. Older Soviet era documents may be in Cyrillic script and Russian, so a set of family records can need two different pairings. Moldovan communities in the United States are concentrated in Washington state, Oregon, Sacramento, and Chicago, largely alongside Romanian and Ukrainian arrivals.
The language is the same; the documents are not. A Moldavan record may be in Romanian, in Soviet-era Cyrillic or in Russian, often on one bilingual form, and names may appear in their Russian form. We translate all of it, transliterate to the passport spelling, and note the variants, which a Romanian-only translator often misses.
Yes. We ask at booking which language the person uses at home and, where the answer is both, assign a Moldavan interpreter who works in Romanian and Russian, so a witness can answer in one and quote a document in the other without a second interpreter.
No. Our only office is in New York. Moldavan translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in West Palm Beach we assign a Moldavan interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in the United States.
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 Moldavan 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.
We are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year – including American statutory holidays. Confidentiality is protected in line with HIPAA on every assignment.
