Skilled Visa Translation (189, 190, 491)
Tamil Translation for an Australian Skilled Visa
NAATI-certified English translations of the Tamil documents required for an Australian skilled visa. We prepare the complete bundle — identity, civil status, character, academic and employment evidence — with consistent name spelling across every page, for you or your migration agent.
What the decision maker needs from Tamil-language applicants
Skilled visa applicants must satisfy both a skills assessing authority and Home Affairs, and both check that the qualification, the employment evidence and the identity documents agree with each other.
- Degree or diploma certificate plus every semester marksheet or transcript
- Experience, relieving and appointment letters from each employer
- Salary slips, Form 16 and EPFO or UAN service history
- Police clearance for every country of residence of 12 months or more
- Birth certificate and, where a spouse is included, the marriage certificate
- Driver licence where you also intend to convert it after arrival
NAATI Certification
What is a NAATI Certified Translation?
Every document in the bundle is translated by a NAATI-certified translator and carries the stamp, signature and certification number Australian agencies require. Because one translator handles your bundle, names, dates and institution names are rendered identically on every page — which is exactly what a case officer or assessor checks first.
- Commonly required for Department of Home Affairs applications
- Used for university, government and employment submissions
- Includes the translator's certification statement and details

Frequently asked questions
What the decision maker is assessing
Skilled migration under subclass 189, 190 and 491 is points tested, and each claimed point must be evidenced. The decision maker cross-checks your skills assessment, your employment history and your identity documents against each other, so internal consistency across translations matters as much as the content of any single one.
Documents most often translated for this pathway
- Degree certificate and full academic transcript for the qualification claimed
- Employment references and independent employment records for every claimed period
- Police clearance certificates for each country of 12 months' residence
- Birth certificate and passport bio page for identity
- Marriage certificate and partner's qualification documents where partner points are claimed
- Registration or licensing certificates for regulated occupations
Tamil specifics for this application
ACS and Engineers Australia files translate the degree, the complete transcript with its CGPA conversion key, employer experience letters, payslips and EPFO records. Where a Sri Lankan qualification is involved, the awarding institution and its recognition status are stated exactly as the certificate records them.
Tamil names are sometimes recorded with an initial before the given name — R. Karthikeyan, S. Meenakshi — and Australian forms may read that initial as a first name or as a middle initial. Romanisation of Tamil script is not standardised, so more than one English spelling of the same name can be legitimate. Look at your own document to see which languages and spellings it actually carries; some are bilingual and some are not. We reproduce what is printed. Where a name or date differs from your passport or other records, flag it with your order and check the receiving organisation's supporting-evidence requirements.
Order of work and timing
Qualifications and employment records are translated first because the skills assessment depends on them, and the skills assessment must be positive before the EOI can be lodged. Police certificates are ordered after the invitation, so they remain current when the case officer reaches the file.
Where these applications stall
- Employment dates in the translated reference conflicting with the independent contribution record
- Claiming partner points without translating the partner's qualification and English evidence
- A skills assessment obtained on one spelling of your name and a visa lodged on another
- An initial standing for the father's name being entered as a given name on the Australian form, producing a name-discrepancy request
- Assuming a certificate needs no translation without checking which languages it actually carries and what the recipient asks for
