Document: Passport Biographical Page. Include the approximate length, recipient, and deadline if you know them. We’ll review your request and may contact you by email about next steps.
What to know
Check whether the passport page needs translation
A passport can be requested as identity evidence alongside other records. The receiving office determines whether a copy, an official translation, or both are needed.
Reader and purpose
Names, birth details, issuing authority, and transliteration may need to match other submitted records.
Quote details
Ask whether a translation is needed at all or whether a certified copy of the passport is sufficient.
Document guide
What to check before ordering
These notes help you describe your request. The receiving organization’s current instructions should guide the final requirements.
Separate the passport from supporting records
The Slovak Embassy’s citizenship-by-descent checklist names a valid passport and separately lists civil records that need apostilles and official Slovak translations. Its general translation instruction is broad, so do not assume a passport is always exempt or always translated. Ask the specific office whether it needs the original passport, a copy, the biographical page in Slovak, or another format for your procedure.
Identify the exact pages and printed fields
The biographical page normally contains the holder’s name, date and place of birth, nationality, document number, validity dates, issuing authority, and machine-readable zone. An observation page, endorsement, name-change notation, or visa page may be relevant in a particular file. List the pages the recipient actually asked for; translating an entire passport without that instruction may add cost without helping the filing.
Match identity details across the submission
Compare the spelling and order of names against birth, marriage, naturalization, and name-change records before finalizing a document set. A passport can show a current name while an older civil record shows a prior one. Flag the discrepancy and include the connecting document if the receiving office asks for it; a translation should preserve the source and should not silently reconcile different names.
Request a quote without exposing passport data
State the issuing country, number of relevant pages, recipient, required translation form, and deadline. Do not enter a passport number, date of birth, scan, or machine-readable line into the public quote form. The passport itself remains the identity document; a translation is only a rendering of requested text.

Frequently asked
Common questions
Answers to common questions before you request a quote.
Does the Embassy require a translation of every passport page?
Its citizenship-by-descent checklist names a valid passport but also gives broad translation instructions for non-Slovak or non-Czech documents. Ask the responsible consular office which passport pages, if any, need an official translation in your application.
Can a translation replace the passport or prove a name change?
No. Present the identity document and any separate name-change evidence the recipient requests. A translation should reproduce the source rather than resolve conflicting records.
