Need a sworn Russian translator in Namur for civil status documents, an asylum or immigration file, or a procedure at the Namur Court of First Instance? Russian covers a vast range of official documents from post-Soviet states. Our translators are accredited by the Belgian Courts of Appeal and deliver certified Russian-French translations within 24 hours.
Russian sworn translation in Namur: a broad post-Soviet language reality
Russian-language documents reach Namur authorities from a variety of directions. Russian is not only the language of Russia - it is the administrative language of many post-Soviet states including Ukraine (historically), Belarus, Kazakhstan, Moldova, Azerbaijan and Armenia, whose citizens regularly submit Russian-language civil status records to Belgian authorities. Following the 2022 conflict in Ukraine, Namur also hosts Ukrainian displaced persons, many of whose documents are bilingual Ukrainian-Russian or solely in Russian.
For all procedures at Namur communes, the Office des Étrangers, the CGRA (asylum office) and Belgian courts, Russian-language documents must be accompanied by a sworn translation produced by a translator registered with SPF Justice and accredited by a Belgian Court of Appeal. Our sworn Russian translators have expertise in all post-Soviet document formats and Cyrillic administrative registers.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Can you translate Soviet-era documents with old administrative Cyrillic?
Yes. Our sworn translators have experience with Soviet administrative documents, including pre-1991 civil registry records and academic diplomas from Soviet-era institutions.
My Ukrainian document is partly in Russian and partly in Ukrainian. Which language do you translate from?
We can translate from either version. For bilingual documents, we typically work from the Russian portion if the assigned translator's language pair is Russian-French. Please describe the document when submitting your quote request.
Does the Namur CGRA accept Russian sworn translations produced online?
Yes. The CGRA requires translations from a sworn translator accredited by a Belgian Court of Appeal. The ordering method has no bearing on legal validity.
