Tagalog and Filipino translation and interpreting

Tagalog and Filipino translation and interpreting for Filipino families, caregivers and businesses across the United States.

We work with documents from Philippines, and with Tagalog-speaking clients anywhere in the United States.

Most Philippine civil documents are in English

PSA birth, marriage and death certificates are generally issued in English, so they usually need no translation for USCIS. Translation is needed for handwritten annotations, local documents in Tagalog or another Philippine language, and US documents that must be understood by family members.

Apostilles for the Philippines

The Philippines joined the Hague Apostille Convention in 2019, so US documents going there usually need an apostille rather than consular authentication.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a translation of my PSA birth certificate?

Usually not, because it is already in English. If any annotation or stamp is in Tagalog or another language, that part must be translated.

Do you provide Tagalog interpreters?

Yes, on site and remotely, for medical, legal and community appointments.

How much does a certified Tagalog translation cost?

It depends on the document, its length, the translation direction and your deadline. Send the document through the quote form or to info@abc-offices.com and you receive a written quote before any work begins.

Prices depend on the document, the language pair, the destination country and your deadline, so every request gets its own written quote. Attach your documents if you have them; it makes the quote exact.
