Are Kiosk Translations Accepted by USCIS, Courts and Consulates?

Yes. Every certified order meets the USCIS standard for translated documents and is accepted by courts, consulates, universities and licensing boards.

What counts as a certified translation?

USCIS requires that any foreign-language document be accompanied by a full English translation that the translator certifies as complete and accurate, with a statement that the translator is competent to translate the language. Our signed, dated Certificate of Translation Accuracy meets that standard, and it is the same document whether you order at the kiosk, online or in Baldwin.

Most kiosk orders are headed for a government desk. Translations for the USCIS New York Field Office at 26 Federal Plaza, the Manhattan Marriage Bureau at 141 Worth St, the New York County Supreme Court at 60 Centre St and the consulates across Midtown East all leave the kiosk in the same format: a complete, word-for-word English translation, the translator's signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, and your name spelled exactly as it appears on your passport.

We guarantee USCIS acceptance. If a consulate, court or school requires a notary, choose the notarized option at the kiosk and the notarized hard copy is mailed to you. Apostille-bound documents are translated with every seal and stamp described so nothing is questioned later.

Where kiosk translations are used

  • Green card, citizenship and visa applications (I-485, N-400, I-130, I-751)
  • Marriage licenses and name-change petitions
  • Court exhibits, affidavits and foreign judgments
  • University admissions, credential evaluation and professional licensing
  • Consular paperwork: dual citizenship, foreign marriage registration, inheritance

Example Order: A Korean Birth Certificate for USCIS, Start to Finish

Here is how a typical certified order runs at the kiosk, from scan to delivery.

The order

Who: An applicant preparing an adjustment-of-status packet
Where: Walked in from the Port Authority Bus Terminal, three blocks north of the kiosk

The documents

Files: Korean birth certificate and family relation certificate, scanned at the kiosk, 3 pages

Goal

  • Deliver a certified English translation in the format USCIS requires
  • Keep every name spelled exactly as on the client's passport
  • Return the translation before the client's biometrics appointment

Key Challenges

  • Name variants: Hanja and Hangul renderings had to be reconciled with the passport spelling
  • Seals and registration numbers: every official stamp had to be described, not skipped
  • Date formats: Korean date notation converted without ambiguity

Languages

Source language: Korean
Target language: English

Delivery

Turnaround: Same day, certified PDF by email, hard copy mailed

How we handled it

  • Native Korean translator assigned within minutes of the kiosk scan
  • Passport spelling confirmed by phone before translation began
  • Second-linguist review and a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy attached to the PDF
  • Hard copy mailed the same day for the client's file

Outcome

  • Certified translation delivered by email the same afternoon
  • Layout, seals and registration numbers mirrored in the English version
  • Client filed the packet on schedule

Frequently Asked Questions

The kiosk is at 550 8th Ave, New York, NY 10018, inside New York City Gift Store, the gift shop on the west side of Eighth Avenue between 37th & 38th Street in Midtown Manhattan's Garment District. It is three blocks south of the Port Authority Bus Terminal and about five minutes on foot from Penn Station and Moynihan Train Hall. Look for the slim freestanding tablet stand with a document shelf.

42 St-Port Authority (A, C, E) is about three minutes on foot, 34 St-Penn Station (A, C, E) about four minutes, and Times Sq-42 St (1, 2, 3, 7, N, Q, R, W, S) about seven. The LIRR, NJ Transit and Amtrak at Penn Station and Moynihan Train Hall are about five minutes away, and the NJ Transit and intercity bus gates at the Port Authority Bus Terminal about three. 34 St-Herald Sq (B, D, F, M, N, Q, R, W) and PATH 33 St are within a ten-minute walk.

The kiosk is available whenever New York City Gift Store is open: Monday to Sunday — Monday to Saturday 8:30 am to 11:00 pm, Sunday 9:30 am to 9:30 pm, matching the hours on our Google Business Profile. You do not need an appointment. If you arrive outside those hours, upload your document at newyorktranslationcompany.com/chat-with-us.php and our online team will quote it 24/7.

No. The kiosk is walk-in and self-service, and a typical order takes under ten minutes: scan, choose your languages and certification level, pay, and go. If someone is already using it, you can upload the same document from your phone while you wait and the order goes to the same team of translators.

Bring the original document or a clear copy; a sharp photo on your phone also works. Include every page, plus the back of any page that carries a stamp, seal or apostille, because certified translations must be complete. You keep your original; the kiosk only captures an image.

The kiosk is self-service, but you are never on your own. Our Manhattan support team answers (646) 547-8754 during kiosk hours, and online chat support is available around the clock at newyorktranslationcompany.com. Every order is translated and reviewed by a human translator, not software.

Yes. Select certified when you order and a professional translator produces a complete, word-for-word translation with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, the format USCIS requires for birth, marriage and divorce certificates, diplomas and police records. We guarantee USCIS acceptance. Notarized copies and mailed hard copies are available if your case or an embassy asks for them.

A certified translation is a complete, word-for-word translation delivered with a signed statement from the translator or translation company confirming that the translation is accurate and that the translator is competent in both languages. USCIS requires this format for every foreign-language document. At the kiosk, every certified order includes that signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy.

No. The kiosk only captures your document and your order details; the translation itself is done by a professional human translator who is a native speaker of the target language, then reviewed before delivery. We do not use machine translation or AI-generated text for certified documents, because the translator must personally certify that the translation is complete and accurate.

Over 100 languages, translated by native speakers. The most requested at this location are Korean, Spanish, Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), Japanese, Russian, Bengali, Arabic, French, Portuguese, Hindi, Urdu and Haitian Creole, in both directions with English. If your language is not listed on the kiosk screen, call us and we will confirm availability.

Pricing is the same as online: starting from $25 per page for certified vital-document translation, starting from $0.10 per word for standard documents, and starting from $7 per minute for audio translation. The kiosk shows your exact price on screen before you pay, with no hidden fees. Rush, notarization and hard-copy delivery are optional add-ons quoted up front.

Your translation is emailed as a PDF, with the certification statement attached for certified orders. Most standard documents are delivered within 24 hours; same-day and rush options are available at checkout. Hard copies with original signatures are mailed on request, and notarized copies ship with the notary's seal.

Yes. Our Baldwin office is at 2096 Grand Ave, Baldwin, NY 11510, open Monday to Friday 8:30 am to 5 pm, and you can reach it at (516) 928-4301. The Midtown kiosk and the Baldwin office use the same translators, pricing and certification, so choose whichever is closer.
