Halifax is the capital of Nova Scotia and the largest city in Atlantic Canada, with a metropolitan population of roughly 530,000. It receives the majority of immigrants who settle in Atlantic Canada and about 80 percent of those coming to Nova Scotia, drawing newcomers from around the world. English is the dominant language, though French, Arabic, Mandarin and other tongues are increasingly heard across the region.
This steady arrival of immigrants and international students sustains ongoing demand for translation and interpreting across healthcare, legal and government settings. Dalhousie University and the QEII Health Sciences Centre serve diverse patients and researchers, while the Immigrant Services Association of Nova Scotia supports settlement. Certified and legal documents are frequently required for the Supreme Court of Nova Scotia and the Provincial Court, and for IRCC applications, credential assessment, and municipal services throughout the Halifax region.
We provide certified Hungarian to English translation of the anyakönyvi kivonat civil certificates for birth, marriage and death, along with diplomas, employment and pension statements, and police clearance certificates, issued by a certified translator or with a sworn affidavit.
Hungarian uses the Latin alphabet with its own set of accented letters, and it is unrelated to the languages around it, belonging to the Uralic family. Names on Hungarian records follow the family-name-first order, and a translator has to render them correctly and carry the accented spellings and official wording into Canadian English.
We translate civil certificates known as an anyakönyvi kivonat for birth, marriage and death, along with diplomas and school records, employment and pension statements, and police clearance certificates. These support IRCC applications, dual citizenship files and use in Canadian legal matters. Translations can be issued by a certified translator or with a sworn affidavit of accuracy where the institution requires one.
The translation preserves seals, registry numbers and the original layout so a reviewer can match it to the source. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, so confirm the requirement of your IRCC stream, provincial body or Canadian court before ordering.
Every certified Hungarian 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 Halifax gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

Hungarian is unusual in Europe: a Uralic language unrelated to the Slavic, Germanic, and Romance languages that surround it. It has around 13 million speakers, mostly in Hungary but also in Romania, Slovakia, Serbia, and Ukraine. The Hungarian-Canadian community took its modern shape after the 1956 uprising, when Canada admitted some 37,000 Hungarian refugees who settled in Toronto, Montreal, Hamilton, and Vancouver. Most of our Hungarian work is genealogy and dual-citizenship documents - Hungarian birth, marriage, and church records - alongside the occasional business contract and academic transcript. Hungarian uses the Latin alphabet with several distinctive accented characters.
Our Hungarian interpreters work in court, medical and settlement appointments in Halifax, and where a speaker uses regional vocabulary from a community outside Hungary an experienced interpreter follows it without difficulty.
Hungarian is spoken not only in Hungary but by communities in the surrounding countries, and the standard form is understood across all of them, which keeps interpreter matching straightforward. Where a speaker uses regional vocabulary from one of those communities, an experienced interpreter follows it without difficulty during a detailed appointment.
Our Hungarian interpreters work in IRB hearings and IRCC interviews, Canadian court and tribunal proceedings, hospital and clinic appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA, and school and settlement meetings. Interpreting is available in person in Halifax and by phone or video for appointments anywhere in Canada.
