Croatian to English translation

Domovnica, rodni list, izvadak

Through e-Građani you can ask for a domovnica (proof of Croatian citizenship), a rodni list (birth certificate) or an extract from the birth register as an electronic record, sent by email. We translate the record you send, paper or electronic, with every field and the issuing office.

The international extract

Croatian registries can also issue an international extract on the multilingual form of the 1976 Vienna Convention, with its labels in several languages. If yours already reads in English where it matters, see documents already in English before you order.

Č, Ć, Đ and the OIB

Croatian names use č, ć, đ, š and ž, and đ is sometimes written dj. The translation copies your name as your passport prints it, and the 11-digit OIB, your personal identification number, is copied digit for digit. If an older document spells your name without the diacritics, the translation shows that spelling too, so the two can be matched.

The whole vozačka dozvola

Both sides of the card: your details in the numbered fields, the issuing police administration, and each category on the reverse with its dates and codes, set out in English words.

Records in either form

A paper certificate or an electronic record from e-Građani is translated the same way, with its reference number and the details of the office or system that issued it.

Civil and court records

Domovnica, birth, marriage and death certificates, criminal record certificates, court decisions, diplomas and transcripts. Seals and signatures are marked where they appear; unreadable text is marked in square brackets.
