Croatian civil records often include document types such as Rodni list, or Birth Certificate, and Izvadak iz matice rođenih, or Extract from the Register of Births, which are commonly required for immigration cases. Other frequently translated records include Vjenčani list, or Marriage Certificate, Smrtni list, or Death Certificate, and Domovnica, or Certificate of Croatian Citizenship.
These documents often contain specific administrative terminology, registry references, official stamps, registrar markings, handwritten notes, and Croatian diacritics that must be translated accurately into English. Our team translates all visible content with care, including details issued by the local Matični ured, or Civil Registrar, municipal offices, ministries, courts, and other Croatian authorities.
For USCIS review, accuracy is not only about translating the main fields. The English version should also reflect seals, signatures, security marks, registry numbers, and visible notations so the translation is complete and easy to compare with the original.

Handling Diacritics and International Extracts in Croatian Documents
Croatian uses a Latin alphabet with characters such as č, ć, ž, š, and đ. Accurate handling of these names and place names is important for consistency across passports, birth certificates, marriage records, USCIS forms, school records, and other supporting documents.
Some applicants also provide multilingual or international extract forms issued by the Matični ured. Even when a document includes multiple languages or English headings, a full certified translation may still be needed to cover Croatian text, stamps, seals, signatures, handwritten notes, silver foil details, embossed elements, and administrative markings appearing on the record.
MotaWord also works with modern digital certificates and documents from the e-Građani system. We translate visible digital markings, verification details, electronic signatures, official labels, and document structure so your certified Croatian translation is complete and ready for USCIS, school, legal, or institutional review.
