Who needs a translator in Seattle
Seattle is mostly English-speaking. Of 710,044 residents aged five and over, 163,693 speak another language at home, and 50,597 of those (7.1% of the city) speak English less than very well. Smaller numbers, but the documents they need certified are exactly the same ones.
No single language dominates Seattle. The largest group, Chinese, accounts for only 22% of residents who speak a language other than English at home, and 9 groups have a limited-English population in the thousands. That mix is worth knowing before you assume which language a document will be in.
| Language group | Speakers | Limited English |
|---|---|---|
| Chinese (incl. Mandarin, Cantonese) | 35,219 | 14,826 |
| Spanish | 32,774 | 9,273 |
| Other Indo-European languages | 22,260 | 2,596 |
| Other Asian and Pacific Island languages | 15,702 | 4,244 |
| Other and unspecified languages | 15,333 | 6,379 |
| Vietnamese | 10,439 | 5,944 |
| Tagalog (incl. Filipino) | 7,803 | 2,533 |
| Russian, Polish, or other Slavic languages | 6,382 | 1,420 |
| Korean | 5,748 | 1,904 |
| French, Haitian, or Cajun | 5,288 | 542 |
| German or other West Germanic languages | 4,824 | 368 |
| Arabic | 1,921 | 568 |
Source: US Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2023 5-Year Estimates, table C16001. "Limited English" is the Census category for speaking English less than very well. Several rows are combined groups rather than single languages, so the totals cover a family of languages. We translate the individual languages inside each group.
Getting a document certified from Seattle
You can hand documents over at our Seattle office, but you do not need to. Upload the file and we return a PDF you can print, with the certification carrying the same weight either way.
What a certified translation has to contain, what USCIS accepts, and what it costs are the same everywhere, so they are covered once on the pages that own them rather than repeated here:
- How certified translation works, including the wording USCIS requires
- Birth certificates, the most common document in an immigration file
- Marriage certificates and divorce decrees
- Diplomas and transcripts for credential evaluation
- Apostilles, a separate step that is often mistaken for certification
The USCIS office in Seattle
Application Support Center - Seattle, WA is at USCIS Application Support Center, 12500 Tukwila International Boulevard, Seattle, WA 98168.
An Application Support Center handles biometrics, not interviews. Translations are filed with your paperwork either way. Address from USCIS; check your own appointment notice before travelling.
Apostilles for Washington documents
For documents issued in Washington, the competent authority is Washington Secretary of State. Not us: an apostille authenticates the original document, while certification covers the translation. How the two fit together.
Authority per the Hague Conference registry, which is not the Secretary of State in every state.
Languages most asked for in Seattle: Chinese, Spanish, other Indo-European languages. We cover more than 100 languages in total, listed on the languages page.
