Malagasy translation and interpreting in Moncton and across Canada, for IRCC files and civil records that are frequently issued in French alongside Malagasy.
Certified translation into English of Malagasy and French civil records, including birth and marriage certificates, the livret de famille, diplomas and police clearance certificates, with a sworn affidavit where a record is incomplete.
Malagasy is the national language of Madagascar and, unusually, an Austronesian language spoken off the coast of Africa, written in the Latin alphabet. Madagascar's civil administration works in both French and Malagasy, so birth, marriage and civil records are often issued in French or in both languages; the translation then runs from French to English where needed, with genuine Malagasy passages, such as an official Malagasy extract or a personal statement, translated directly.
Documents that arise include birth and marriage certificates, the livret de famille, diplomas and transcripts, and police clearance certificates, prepared for IRCC permanent residence, citizenship and provincial registrations. A certified translator handles the French and Malagasy portions together and keeps names consistent, issuing a signed declaration or a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths where a record is incomplete, and acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.
Every certified Malagasy 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 Moncton gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

Malagasy is the national language of Madagascar, with around 25 million speakers. Linguistically it's an Austronesian outlier - closely related to languages of Borneo, not to African languages - reflecting Madagascar's settlement by Austronesian-speaking voyagers around 1,500 years ago. In Canada, Malagasy translation requests reach us mainly from Montreal, Toronto and Ottawa, and typically involve IRCC civil documents, academic transcripts, or business contracts. Malagasy uses the Latin alphabet.
Malagasy interpreters in Moncton for interviews, hearings and medical appointments, matching the Merina standard or a coastal variety by region and confirming the interpreting requirements before the appointment.
We confirm the client's preferred language and the interpreting requirements before the appointment so the right Malagasy interpreter is assigned. The official standard is based on the Merina dialect of the central highlands, while coastal varieties differ, so we note the speaker's home region when placing a Malagasy interpreter.
Interpreters attend IRCC and IRB interviews, hospitals and clinics under PHIPA and PIPEDA, and school and settlement meetings. Remote Malagasy interpreting by phone or video is common, with consecutive interpreting used so each statement is rendered in full.
For an in-person assignment in Moncton we assign a Malagasy interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. Courts, law firms, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private clients book us directly. See Malagasy interpreter in Moncton for the full interpreting service.

Moncton is New Brunswick's largest city and a hub of Acadian French culture. New Brunswick is Canada's only officially bilingual province, and Greater Moncton is one of the country's most strongly bilingual urban areas, home to a large francophone Acadian community alongside its English-speaking majority. The Universite de Moncton, the largest French-language university outside Quebec, anchors this heritage.
Everyday bilingualism creates steady, practical demand for English-French translation and interpreting across business, healthcare, and public services. Newcomers arriving through immigration add further need for other languages. Certified documents are frequently required for the Court of King's Bench of New Brunswick and the Provincial Court, as well as for IRCC applications, the Vitalite Health Network, and provincial and municipal offices. Moncton's role as a regional transport and commercial centre reinforces ongoing demand for accurate bilingual communication.
