Translation and apostille services in Urasoe
For people and companies in Urasoe and the surrounding area of Okinawa. We handle the translation, the certification and the government counters, and courier the file back to you.
Civil records for residents of Urasoe are issued by the municipal office, but only if your family register is registered there — if your honseki is in another municipality, the application has to go to that office instead. We check which office holds the record before applying, which avoids the most common reason applications come back rejected.
The largest US military presence in Japan makes Okinawa our highest-volume prefecture for US-bound marriage, birth and divorce documents, including SOFA-related paperwork.
Once the document is in hand, the apostille route is the same as for the rest of Okinawa: certification by 那覇地方法務局 where a notary is involved, then the Ministry of Foreign Affairs counter in Osaka.
