WHAT WE TRANSLATE
The Bolivian Police Record (Certificado REJAP (Registro Judicial de Antecedentes Penales))
For Bolivia the standard police certificate is the Certificado REJAP — Registro Judicial de Antecedentes Penales — issued by the Consejo de la Magistratura, the judiciary's administrative body, not the police. (Separate FELCC police and Interpol certificates exist, but REJAP is what U.S. immigration expects.) It is delivered within roughly 24 hours and states whether the person 'REGISTRA' or 'NO REGISTRA' criminal antecedents, with a tracking/verification code and the Magistratura seal. Validity is short — about 30 days for domestic use, 90 days if legalized by the Cancillería for use abroad — so it should be translated promptly to stay within the window for DS-260 consular processing or adjustment of status. Our certified English rendering reproduces the result line exactly ('no criminal record is registered'), the departmental or national scope of the search, the issuance and expiry references, and the verification code, marking the judicial seal as [SEAL]. We certify accuracy and completeness to USCIS and NVC standard.
WHO ISSUES IT
Where Your Bolivian Police Record Comes From
Bolivian police and criminal-record certificates are issued by the national or state police and justice authorities described above — not the civil registry. Bolivia has been a party to the Hague Apostille Convention since it entered into force on May 7, 2018, so Bolivian public documents are authenticated with a single apostille — an electronic apostilla issued by the Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores (Cancillería) — with no US embassy or consular legalization required.

USCIS REQUIREMENTS
How USCIS Wants Your Bolivian Police Record Translated
For your Bolivian police record, 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 Bolivian original.
WATCH OUT FOR
Common Bolivian Police Record Pitfalls
Bolivian police and criminal-record certificates must show exact coverage dates and the issuing authority, and because they often expire quickly, the translation should be scheduled close to your filing date.
Native Bolivian Specialist
A native speaker of your document's language handles it — not a generalist or a machine.

USCIS Acceptance Guaranteed
