Official Passport Translation

Your Passport

A passport is a government -issued document that identifies the holder and his/her nationality, and contains the the holder’s name, birth date, birthplace, and other bio data.  A passport is also issued for purposes of international travel. Passports also come in various languages, most of the time in the native tongue of the issuing country. Due to the increasing trend of tourism and overseas labor, official passport translation services have become highly in demand.

 

Passport Language

Today, the International Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) recommends that passports be issued in either:

  • English and French, or
  • the national language of the issuing country, and English or French.

Countries around Europe also use their national language. They also additionally use French, German and English, the top three spoken languages in Europe.

Some countries use unusual language combinations in their passports.

Members of the European Union issue their passports using all languages of the EU.

Belgium also has three official languages: Dutch, German and French. All three are in fact on the cover of the Belgian passport, along with English on the main page.
