Do I need to translate my documents that are not in English?

You will need to provide original documents and official translations (for documents in languages other than English) for your application for immigration facilities.

ICA accepts:

  • Translations provided by the embassy of the country/place that issued the document
  • Translations produced by a notary public in Singapore or the country/place that issued the document
  • Privately created translations attested by the embassy of the country/place that issued the document, or notarised by a notary public in Singapore or the country/place that issued the document.
ICA does not endorse any private translation companies or entities. Insufficient documentation may result in non-acceptance of your application. You may be required to provide additional documents to support your application.
