Certified Wolof translation for Senegalese and Gambian civil documents, birth certificates (extrait de naissance), and identity papers. Our native Wolof translators handle both Wolof-language community documents and the French-language official records issued by Senegal's civil registry (état civil) — providing the dual French-Wolof expertise essential for Senegalese immigration cases.
Our Wolof linguists are native speakers from Senegal who are fully bilingual in Wolof and French. They translate French-language Senegalese civil documents (extraits de naissance, actes de mariage, jugements supplétifs) and provide Wolof interpretation services. They understand Senegal's état civil system, the jugement supplétif (supplementary judgment) process used to establish birth records, and the specific administrative vocabulary of Senegalese government agencies.
Whether you need a Senegalese extrait de naissance translated for USCIS, a jugement supplétif certified for immigration proceedings, or Wolof interpretation for an asylum hearing, our team provides accurate bilingual Wolof-French-English service grounded in Senegalese administrative expertise.

Wolof presents unique linguistic challenges that machine translation and non-specialist translators consistently fail to handle correctly.
Senegalese nationals may speak primarily Wolof but hold French-language official documents. Translation services must handle both — French document translation and Wolof interpretation — and the code-switching that occurs in legal proceedings.
Many Senegalese obtain official birth records through "jugements supplétifs" — court-ordered supplementary judgments that establish birth records after the fact. These documents have specific legal formatting and terminology that translators must understand.
Wolof and Senegalese names follow distinct conventions — family names come first in many civil records, honorifics like "El Hadj" or "Adja" indicate Hajj pilgrimage, and the same person may be registered under variant spellings across documents.
Some immigration cases involve community attestation letters, religious marriage certificates (from Islamic ceremonies), or customary law documents that don't follow standard état civil formatting.

USCIS, immigration courts, and state agencies require certified translations of all foreign-language documents. Our Wolof translations meet every federal and state requirement.
Every Wolof translation includes a signed Certificate of Accuracy — a sworn statement by the translator attesting that the translation is complete and accurate. This is the minimum requirement for USCIS filings, court submissions, and academic credential evaluations (WES, ECE, NACES members).
A notarized translation adds a notary public’s verification that the translator’s signature is authentic. Some state courts, foreign consulates, and government agencies require notarization in addition to certification. We provide notarized Wolof translations with same-day availability.
For Wolof documents being used internationally, an apostille certifies their authenticity under the Hague Convention. We coordinate apostille services with the Secretary of State’s office, providing a complete package: certified translation + notarization + apostille — ready for international legal use.
