Certified Ukrainian translation and Ukrainian interpreting for CUAET, IRCC, medical and school needs in Vancouver and across Canada.
Certified Ukrainian to English Translation in Vancouver
We provide certified Ukrainian to English translation of internal and foreign passports, birth and marriage certificates, diplomas and school certificates, employment and pension records, and medical and vaccination histories. Place and personal names are transliterated to match your passport, following Ukrainian rather than Russian romanisation where it matters to you.
Ukrainian is written in its own Cyrillic alphabet, which differs from Russian in several letters, so a translator has to read the source correctly rather than assume it is Russian. We translate the records families have brought under recent emergency travel measures: internal and foreign passports, birth and marriage certificates, diplomas and school certificates, employment and pension records, and medical and vaccination histories.
Place and personal names are transliterated to match your passport and IRCC paperwork, and we can follow Ukrainian rather than Russian romanisation of city names where that matters to you. Soviet-era or wartime documents sometimes carry unusual stamps or reissued dates, and we note these in the English version.
Each translation is prepared as a certified translation by a qualified translator, or as a sworn affidavit when a body asks for one. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, such as IRCC, a provincial licensing body, a school board or a Canadian employer.
Every certified Ukrainian 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 Vancouver gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada. See certified Ukrainian translation for the document service in full.
Ukrainian Translation Services in Vancouver
Certified Ukrainian translation in Vancouver renders Ukrainian Cyrillic records into English for CUAET arrivals, IRCC files, provincial licensing bodies and school boards. Our translators work directly from Ukrainian rather than treat it as Russian, issuing a certified translation or a sworn affidavit.
Vancouver is the largest city in British Columbia and Canada's principal Pacific gateway, with major film, technology, port and tourism sectors. Its population is among the most linguistically diverse in North America, with large Cantonese, Mandarin, Punjabi and Tagalog speaking communities alongside newer arrivals from across Asia and the Middle East. This diversity, combined with steady immigration through IRCC programs, creates ongoing demand for translation and interpreting across everyday life.
The University of British Columbia and Vancouver General Hospital anchor education and health care in the city, while Vancouver Coastal Health serves the wider region. The Supreme Court of British Columbia and the Provincial Court of British Columbia both sit in Vancouver and regularly require interpreters for parties who speak little English. Settlement agencies, clinics, law offices and businesses all rely on professional translation to serve residents in their first languages.
About the Ukrainian Language
Ukrainian is the official language of Ukraine, with around 40 million speakers. It's a Slavic language written in Cyrillic, distinct from Russian -- sharing vocabulary in places but using its own grammar, idioms, and several distinctive letters. Canada has one of the world's largest Ukrainian diasporas, with long-established Prairie communities dating back to the 1890s and communities in Toronto, Edmonton, and Winnipeg, and we handle files under the CUAET emergency-travel programme. We routinely translate Ukrainian passports, birth certificates, marriage records, military exemption documents, and educational diplomas for IRCC, provincial licensing bodies, and Canadian universities.
