Written for Haitian Creole bank statement records
Gourdes, dollars and the relevé de compte
A Haitian statement raises two questions a US reader cannot answer alone: which currency is this, and what did that line mean.
Two currencies, sometimes two accounts
Haitian banks open accounts in gourdes and in US dollars, and a customer often holds one of each. A relevé de compte in gourdes shows balances in the tens or hundreds of thousands that are worth far less in dollars, and a dollar account at a Haitian bank is still a Haitian document in French. The translation keeps the currency code on every line and never converts, so the officer sees the figures the bank printed. If you want a conversion, add your own note with the rate and date; it does not belong inside the translation.
Line descriptions and the bank's labels
Entries read frais de tenue de compte, retrait au guichet, dépôt chèque, virement reçu de l'étranger, or a transfert Western Union or MoneyGram for a remittance from a relative in the US. The header gives the numéro de compte, the agence that holds it, and the solde d'ouverture and solde de clôture for the period. We translate each label into its US banking equivalent and keep any abbreviation the bank invented, with its expansion the first time.
Caisses populaires and Fonkoze
Not every Haitian keeps money at a bank. A kès popilè, a credit union under the Conseil National des Coopératives, and the microfinance lender Fonkoze issue their own statements and passbooks, and Fonkoze's are among the few Haitian financial papers printed partly in Creole. A livret with handwritten entries works as a statement when the institution stamps it. We translate the passbook page by page and the stamp with it.
Who is asking for your Haitian Creole bank statement translation?
The translation is the same. What changes is whether the recipient wants anything added to it.
USCIS and the National Visa Center
Affidavit of support and consular processing cases take bank statements with a complete English translation and a signed certification. No notarization is needed.
UK Visas and Immigration
UKVI asks for a certified translation of any document not in English, with the translator's details and the date on it. Statements for the maintenance requirement are the usual request.
Lenders and landlords
A mortgage lender or a landlord checking income accepts a certified translation of your statements. Digital delivery as a PDF is usually enough; ask for a hard copy if they want one.
Before you upload
Three things that save a day of back and forth on a Haitian Creole bank statement.
Download the statement rather than photographing it
A PDF from online banking is sharper than a photo and keeps every figure legible. If you only have paper, scan each page flat with the header and the closing balance in frame.
Send a complete period
A consulate or a lender names the months it wants. Send every page of each month, including pages with no transactions, so the running balance reads without gaps.
Tell us whose account it is
Give us the account holder's name as the passport spells it. Account numbers, amounts and the currency are copied exactly as printed; the headings and descriptions are translated.

Haitian Creole Bank Statement FAQ
Most questions about pricing and turnaround can be answered faster by requesting a quote.
- USCIS wants my sponsor's bank letter, not a statement. Do you translate that?
- Yes. Haitian banks issue an attestation bancaire on request, a one-page letter stating the account holder's name, the account type, the opening date and the current balance, signed by the branch manager. For Form I-864 or a consular interview it is usually sent with the statements. We translate the letter with its letterhead, stamp and signature block, and it is normally one page at $25.
- Does a Haitian bank statement translation need to be notarized?
- USCIS does not ask for it; the signed certification is enough. A US lender or a court sometimes does, and we notarize on request as an add-on. If the bank sent you a PDF through online banking, send the PDF rather than a screenshot so the header, the account number and the page numbers come through.
- My relatives send money through a transfer house, not a bank. Can those receipts be translated?
- Yes. The US sender's Western Union or MoneyGram receipt is already in English, but the paper the relative in Haiti gets from a transfer house such as CAM or Unitransfer is in French. We translate those receipts with the date, the amounts and the reference number, so a run of them can show steady support alongside the bank statements.
- How much does a certified translation cost?
- Certified translation is $25 per page, with a page counted as up to 250 words. Notarization, a mailed physical copy and an apostille are optional and priced separately.
- How long does a certified translation take?
- Standard turnaround starts at 24 hours and depends on the length and language of your documents. If you have a deadline, include it in your quote request.
