When affidavit translation is required
- Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia — family law, parenting and property matters involving overseas parties or evidence.
- Administrative Appeals Tribunal (AAT) — migration and refugee review applications relying on overseas sworn evidence.
- De facto and partner visa applications — supporting statutory declarations and affidavits from friends and family living overseas.
- Probate and estate matters — sworn statements regarding inheritance, wills and beneficiary status.
- Civil litigation — where a witness or party swore their statement outside Australia.
What the translation includes
The certified translation reproduces the full body of the affidavit — deponent details, the sworn or affirmed clause, every numbered paragraph, and all annexure markings — along with the officer's signature block, seal or stamp. The translator's certification statement identifies each page so the bundle can be filed as one complete exhibit.
