Certified Georgian translation and Georgian interpreting for asylum, IRCC, medical and civil records in Ottawa and across Canada.
Our Georgian interpreters cover IRB hearings, IRCC interviews, medical and legal aid appointments and school meetings in Ottawa. Georgian is distinct from Russian, so we assign a Georgian interpreter for the whole appointment rather than lean on a second language.
We arrange Georgian interpreters for IRB refugee and detention hearings, IRCC interviews, hospital and mental health appointments, legal aid and school meetings. Georgian is distinct from Russian, and for consent and testimony it is safer to work in Georgian even where a speaker also knows some Russian.
Interpreting is available in Ottawa on site, and by phone or video across Canada, which helps reach a Georgian speaker when few live nearby. The interpreter keeps everything said confidential.
For an in-person assignment in Ottawa we assign a Georgian interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. We serve courts, lawyers, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private individuals; we are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor, and we say so up front.
Georgian interpreters in Ottawa attend IRB refugee and detention hearings, IRCC interviews and hospital and mental health appointments. For consent and testimony it is safer to work in Georgian even where a speaker also knows some Russian.
Ottawa, the national capital, is officially bilingual and increasingly multilingual, with a large and growing newcomer population. After English and French, Arabic is the most common non-official mother tongue, spoken by roughly three per cent of residents, followed by Spanish, Mandarin and other Chinese languages. Refugee resettlement and skilled migration have brought sizeable Arabic, Somali, Mandarin and Spanish speaking communities to neighbourhoods across the city.
Demand for translation and interpreting is strong across government, healthcare, education and legal services. Newcomers preparing IRCC and citizenship applications need accurate certified document translation, and hospitals such as The Ottawa Hospital and CHEO rely on interpreters for patient care. Legal matters are heard at the Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice at the Ottawa Courthouse, with minor claims handled by Small Claims Court. Settlement agencies including the Ottawa Community Immigrant Services Organization help families integrate.
The same network supplies Georgian interpreting in and around Ottawa, on site for a local hearing or by phone and video across Canada.
For in-person work in Ottawa we assign a Georgian interpreter who is based in or near the city, and the same Georgian linguists cover the surrounding area:
Prism also serves Georgian speakers in nearby communities such as Clarence-Rockland, Carleton Place, Mississippi Mills, Russell, North Grenville and Arnprior — on site across the Ottawa area and by telephone or video anywhere in Canada.
We provide certified Georgian to English translation of birth, marriage and civil status certificates, national ID and passport pages, diplomas and transcripts, and asylum and family claim documents. An apostille under the Hague Convention is translated together with the underlying certificate, and name spelling is kept consistent with your passport.
Georgian is written in its own Mkhedruli alphabet, which shares no letters with Latin or Cyrillic and has no upper case, so it must be read by a translator who knows the script rather than transliterated by machine. We translate records from Georgia such as birth, marriage and civil status certificates, national ID and passport pages, diplomas and academic transcripts, and supporting documents for asylum and family claims.
Georgia is party to the Hague Apostille Convention, so documents issued there for use in Canada often carry an apostille, which we translate together with the underlying certificate. Names transliterate into English in more than one way, and we keep spelling consistent with your passport and IRCC file, noting seals and registry numbers in the English version.
Translations are prepared as a certified translation by a qualified translator, or as a sworn affidavit where a body prefers one. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, such as IRCC, the IRB, a Canadian court or a provincial registry.
Every certified Georgian translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet IRCC requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Ottawa gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

Georgian is the official language of Georgia, with around 4 million native speakers. It uses its own writing system - Mkhedruli - one of just a handful of distinct living scripts globally, and Georgian itself is one of the Kartvelian languages, with no close relatives outside that family. The Georgian-Canadian community is small, concentrated in Toronto and Montreal. Our Georgian translation work is split between IRCC civil and refugee paperwork, Georgian wine and agricultural-export contracts, and the academic transcripts of Georgian students at Canadian universities.
No. Georgian uses the Mkhedruli alphabet, which shares no letters with Latin or Cyrillic, so our translators read it directly and keep name spelling consistent with your passport.
Yes. Georgia is party to the Hague Apostille Convention, and we translate the apostille with the underlying certificate; acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.
