Vital records.

Vital records

Vital records issued in another country that are submitted to a civil registry office in Switzerland must be either in one of the national languages (i.e. German, French or Italian) or in English. Some of the relevant document types are listed below:

  • Birth certificate
  • Single status certificate / proof of civil status
  • Certificate of origin
  • Marriage certificate
  • Family certificate
  • tazkira (proof of birth, identity and residence)
  • Divorce certificate
  • Death certificate

In this context, the civil registry offices usually require the submission of an acknowledgment of collaboration form as proof of the quality of the translation.

We offer all of this from a single source.
