Certified translation of vaccination records, immunization cards, and medical certificates from any country. 65+ languages, prepared for USCIS-purpose document submissions, schools, and employers.
Vaccination records cross borders constantly — and they need to be understood on the other side. You’ll need a certified translation of your vaccination record for:
If it documents what vaccines you’ve received and it’s not in English, we translate it.
Vaccination records come in many formats depending on the country and era. We translate all of them:
Immunization Cards and Booklets
Medical Certificates
School and Institutional Records
Country-Specific Formats
Vaccination records are deceptively complex to translate:
Medical terminology and abbreviations. Vaccine names, lot numbers, and medical abbreviations vary by country. “BCG,” “DPT,” and “MMR” may be universal, but the full names and local equivalents differ.
Handwritten entries. Most vaccination records are filled in by hand — often by multiple healthcare providers over many years. Handwriting quality ranges from neat to barely legible. We translate what’s readable and note illegible portions per standard practice.
Non-standard formats. Unlike birth certificates, which follow relatively standard formats within each country, vaccination records can be hospital forms, clinic cards, government booklets, or handwritten lists on plain paper. We handle all formats.
Vaccine name localization. The same vaccine may have different brand names in different countries. We translate the name as written and, when helpful, include the standard international name for clarity.
For immigration purposes, vaccination records matter most during the I-693 civil surgeon examination. Here’s how it works:
Without a certified translation, the civil surgeon cannot verify your foreign vaccination records. This means you may be re-vaccinated unnecessarily — costing time and money for shots you’ve already had.
USCIS-required vaccinations include: Mumps, measles, rubella, polio, tetanus/diphtheria, pertussis, hepatitis A, hepatitis B, rotavirus, meningococcal, varicella, pneumococcal, influenza, COVID-19 (requirements updated periodically).

A vaccination record gets a quote review. If records are dense, handwritten, unclear, or include multiple cards or booklets, use the quote form before ordering.
Corpus prepares the translation with a signed certificate of accuracy. The civil surgeon, the school, or the clinic decides whether to accept it.
Yes. We routinely translate handwritten medical records. If any portion is illegible, we note it in the translation (e.g., "[illegible]"), which is standard accepted practice.
If it's in a foreign language and you need it for USCIS, school enrollment, or a U.S. employer, yes. We translate both paper certificates and printouts of digital vaccination records.
We can only translate existing documents. If records are lost, your civil surgeon or healthcare provider can perform titer tests (blood tests for immunity) as an alternative. If you have partial records, we'll translate whatever you have.
A vaccination record gets a quote review. The translation is delivered within one business day of order confirmation, and your quote gives the delivery time.
