WHAT WE TRANSLATE
The Bangladeshi Divorce Decree (তালাকনামা (Talaqnama) / Divorce Certificate)
Bangladesh has two divorce paths and the paperwork differs. Most Muslim divorces produce a Talaqnama plus a divorce-effective certificate under Section 7 of the Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961: the party pronouncing talaq serves 90-day written notice on the Union Parishad/Pourashava Chairman (or City Corporation ward), who convenes an Arbitration Council; only after 90 days without reconciliation is the divorce registered by the Nikah Registrar and a certificate issued. Court divorces instead yield a Family Court decree (Decree Nisi followed by Decree Absolute). USCIS must see that the divorce is final and effective, so translating only the Talaqnama is not enough — we translate the Chairman's registration/effective-date certificate and the 90-day notice so the officer can confirm the marriage is legally dissolved. These documents are handwritten in Bangla with municipal seals; we transliterate both spouses' names to match their other filings and preserve the exact effective date, which the officer uses to validate remarriage eligibility.
WHO ISSUES IT
Where Your Bangladeshi Divorce Decree Comes From
In Bangladesh, civil-status records come from the রেজিস্ট্রার জেনারেলের কার্যালয়, জন্ম ও মৃত্যু নিবন্ধন (Office of the Registrar General, Birth & Death Registration). Bangladesh joined the Hague Apostille Convention effective 30 March 2025, so USCIS-bound public documents are authenticated with a single apostille from the Bangladesh Ministry of Foreign Affairs (which replaced the older embassy/consular legalization chain for US-bound records).

USCIS REQUIREMENTS
How USCIS Wants Your Bangladeshi Divorce Decree Translated
For your Bangladeshi divorce decree, USCIS requires a complete English translation of everything on the page — the issuing office’s details, seals, and any marginal notes included — plus a signed certification of accuracy under 8 CFR 103.2(b)(3). Machine translation cannot sign that certification. We reproduce the document's exact layout so an officer can compare it line by line against your Bangladeshi original.
WATCH OUT FOR
Common Bangladeshi Divorce Decree Pitfalls
Bangladeshi divorce records must show an unambiguous dissolution date and the exact court or registry that granted it; a vague or mistranslated date can make USCIS question whether a prior marriage truly ended before a new one began.
Native Bangladeshi Specialist
A native speaker of your document's language handles it — not a generalist or a machine.
