If you’re submitting documents to UK authorities, you’ll likely need a Turkish birth certificate translation that’s officially recognised. Whether for visa applications, school enrolment, citizenship matters or registering a birth, providing an accurate English version is essential. This guide walks you through everything you need to know to get your birth certificate translated correctly and accepted in the UK.
What Is a Turkish Birth Certificate and Why Do You Need an Official Translation?
A Turkish birth certificate (Doğum Belgesi) is issued by the Turkish General Directorate of Population and Citizenship Affairs and confirms vital details, such as name, birth date, and parentage. When presenting this document abroad, particularly in the UK, it must be accompanied by an official English translation. UK authorities, including the Home Office and the NHS, require that any document in a foreign language be professionally translated and certified. An official translation guarantees accuracy and ensures your document is accepted without question.
