What you receive

A translation built to be checked

Your translation is compared line by line with your passport and other documents, so it has to be complete and exact.

  • Every page translated, including each transaction line, balances and the bank's notes.
  • Figures and dates exactly as on the statement, so the totals still add up.
  • The translator's NAATI stamp and certification statement, showing who translated it and their NAATI credential.
  • Our letterhead with our address and telephone number, so the translation can be traced back to us.

Before you order

What each visa asks for

Financial evidence depends on the visa. Here is what Home Affairs says on each visa's own page.

gavel

Original and translation, together

On its visitor and partner visa pages, Home Affairs asks you to provide the original documents and the English translations in your application. Translators in Australia must be accredited by NAATI.

Visitor visa

3 months of statements

For a visitor visa (subclass 600), Home Affairs lists itemised personal bank statements for a 3-month period among the proof that you have enough money for your stay.

Student visa

Check which route you use

Money held in a financial institution can be evidence of financial capacity. But if you rely on your parents' or partner's income, Home Affairs says it will not accept bank statements or direct evidence from an employer: it asks for official government documents such as tax assessments.

Partner visa

Joint finances

For a partner visa, Home Affairs lists joint bank account statements among the evidence that you share financial matters.

Financial documents by visa

Visitor (600)Itemised personal bank statements for 3 months; payslips; tax records; term deposits; credit card statementsProof you can fund your stay
Student (500)Deposits with a financial institution; government or bank loans; scholarshipsIncome route: tax assessments, not bank statements

What Home Affairs asks of a translation

From the Department of Home Affairs' guidance on documents in languages other than English:

  • Provide the original document together with the English translation.
  • In Australia, use a translator accredited by NAATI.
  • Include the translator's full name, address and telephone number, and qualifications and experience in the language, all in English.

Our certified translations carry the translator's NAATI stamp and certification statement, on our letterhead with our address and telephone number.

What to send us
  • The official statement as a PDF, or a clear colour scan where every line is readable.
  • Every page in one file, including the apostille if there is one.
  • Any spelling your names must match on your passport, written in the comments box.
  • Each statement as a complete PDF, in date order.
Questions

Frequently asked questions

How is the price worked out?

A full translation is $100 per page. If a summary of the monthly totals is enough for your purpose, it is $80 per month. Choose at checkout; a bank loan application usually needs the full translation.

Do I need every page translated?

We translate every page you send. Home Affairs does not publish a rule on translating only part of a document, so send the statements you intend to submit.

Can you keep the layout of the statement?

Yes. We follow the layout of the original so each figure can be checked against it, line by line.

How long does it take?

Usually 24 to 48 hours for a few pages; larger sets take longer and the timing is given with your quote.
