French family record book (livret de famille)
Livret de Famille Translation into English
The livret de famille is issued by the French mairie and records a couple's marriage or PACS and the birth of each child in one booklet. Alongside it, the acte de naissance is issued as an extrait or a copie intégrale. We translate all of these from $59 per page with 24-hour turnaround.

NAATI Certification
How we translate French civil documents
The livret is an official booklet holding civil-status extracts, updated as family events are recorded (service-public.gouv.fr). Most booklets have blank or irrelevant pages, so ask the recipient which entries they need — the marriage or PACS page, a specific child's page, or the whole set — and select only those pages. Associated annotations printed on or beside an entry should be included with it. A livret is not the same thing as an individual acte de naissance or acte de mariage; some recipients ask specifically for one of those instead, so check the request rather than assuming either way. Our NAATI-certified French translators reproduce the mairie's layout — the acte number, the officier d'état civil's wording, parents' details, and every mention marginale — and translate the pages you select.
