Acceptance vs Rejection
What Counter Officers Inspect First
Side-by-side comparison of rejected DIY uploads versus an official certified submission pack.
Unstamped or Incomplete DIY Scan
- Untranslated marginal registry stamps, chops, or back-page endorsements
- Mismatched name order or spelling against passport, NRIC, or FIN
- Missing signed Certificate of Accuracy and traceable company details
Translife Official Submission Set

Pre-Submission Quality Checklist
- Chinese court divorce mediation statements (民事调解书) or first-instance judgments (民事判决书) often require a Certificate of Effective Judgment (生效证明) showing the divorce is legally final.
- Vietnamese, Thai, Indonesian, and Malaysian Single Status Certificates must be translated in full—including commune/district seals and consular authentication stamps.
- Always bring BOTH the original foreign-language document AND the physical wet-ink certified translation to your ROM Verification of Documents (VD/SD) appointment.
- Maiden names, middle names, and patronymics must match passport bio-data pages exactly.

Authority FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Clear answers on acceptance, stamps, pricing, and delivery.
Does ROM Singapore accept certified translations from Translife?
ROM accepts certified English translations bearing clear company letterhead, certifier signature, stamp, and Singapore contact details (alongside embassy or court-certified translations, subject to any country-specific notice on your ROM appointment checklist).
How quickly can you translate a Single Status Certificate or Divorce Decree before my ROM appointment?
Standard 1–3 page civil certificates are completed within 24–48 hours, with urgent same-day/next-morning options available when your Verification of Documents (VD/SD) slot is imminent.
Can I use the same certified translation for ICA LTVP and HDB?
Yes—most couples request 1 digital PDF plus 2 wet-ink originals so they always keep an unblemished original on hand for ROM, ICA LTVP/PR, and HDB appointments.
Do you translate Indonesian (Akta Cerai / N1-N4), Vietnamese, Thai, Malay, and Chinese civil records?
Yes. Those five languages—plus Japanese, Korean, Tagalog, Hindi, Tamil, Russian, French, German, and Spanish—are handled daily by our civil-certificate specialists.
