Iowa's economy runs on agriculture, food processing, insurance, and manufacturing, and every one of those sectors now works across languages. Plant floors, claims desks, and export offices all produce documents that need a careful translation.
We deliver every engagement in this market as a specialist translation agency that has worked across 50+ language pairs since 2002.
We serve individuals and businesses in Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, Davenport, Sioux City, and Iowa City with certified translations for immigration, courts, and universities, along with technical and commercial translation for exporters and employers. Each translation carries a signed certificate of accuracy where the receiving office asks for one. Hosts in Iowa can arrange conference interpreting services for training sessions and staff briefings, in person or by video. For documents issued in Iowa and headed abroad, our US apostille service coordinates the apostille with the state's designated authority, usually the Secretary of State, and then delivers the certified translation of the apostilled set.
Certified translations come up in immigration filings for green card, visa, and citizenship applications; in court cases involving contracts, affidavits, and evidence; in university admissions that need foreign diplomas and transcripts; and in business deals that depend on contractual clarity.

Learn moreOur translators specialize in several fields: healthcare translations for patient records, medical research, and clinical trials; business and financial translations for Des Moines corporate firms; academic translations for students and researchers at the University of Iowa and Iowa State University; and agriculture and manufacturing documentation for the state's exporters.
An error in a certified translation can cause legal problems or delays. Every file gets a second-linguist review before delivery to catch mistakes early.

Yes. Each certified translation we prepare for Iowa filings carries the translator's signed statement that the translation is complete and accurate and that the translator is competent in both languages, the format 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3) and the USCIS Form Instructions call for. Des Moines, Cedar Rapids, and Davenport residents need this format for consular processing, adjustment of status, and citizenship applications. Agriculture and food processing employers sometimes need it for work-visa and credential paperwork too.
