Can I use a NAATI translation of my Chinese birth certificate for an Australian passport application?

Yes. AO Translation provides NAATI-certified English translations of Chinese birth certificates for Australian passport applications lodged in Australia. The Australian Passport Office requires non-English documents to be translated in full and stamped by an accredited translator, directing Australian applicants to NAATI. Australian Passport Office: interpreting and translation.

Does every adult born in China need a translated birth certificate for an Australian passport?

No. It is one way for overseas-born adults to prove gender and birthplace. Alternatives showing both details include:

Australian citizenship certificate.
Foreign passport.
Other official documents.

Overseas-born adults still need their Australian citizenship certificate and other required identity documents. Australian Passport Office: identity documents you need.

Translating a Handwritten Chinese Birth Certificate for an Australian Passport Application

Overview

A customer needed an English translation of an older Chinese birth certificate for an Australian passport application.

Challenge

Most of the information on the certificate was handwritten. Every entry needed careful checking with the customer, including the child’s name and both parents’ names. The father was from Hong Kong, and the English spelling of his name needed to match his passport.

Our approach

AO Translation checked all handwritten text with the customer and confirmed the names recorded on the certificate. We also checked the father’s passport and used the English spelling shown there in the translation.

Outcome

We delivered the completed translation as a PDF in 12 hours. The following day, the customer successfully lodged the Australian passport application at a post office.
