Why do I need my bank statement translated?
The Department of Home Affairs requires evidence of financial capacity for many visa subclasses. If your financial records are in another language, NAATI certified translations are mandatory. This applies to business visas, student visas, partner visas, and any visa where you need to demonstrate access to funds.
Australian banks also require translated financial documents when overseas income or assets are part of a mortgage or loan application.
Financial documents we translate
We translate the full range of financial documentation including bank statements, fixed deposit certificates, share portfolio statements, property valuations, tax returns, business financial statements, loan documents, and investment account records.
Common bank statement scenarios

Mortgage applications: If you're applying for an Australian mortgage and have overseas income or savings, lenders require certified translations of your bank statements.
Legal and tax matters: Court proceedings involving asset disclosure and ATO matters involving overseas income require certified translations of financial records.
