Ukrainian Baptism Certificate Translation in Canada
In Canada’s multicultural environment, official document translation plays a key role in many personal, educational, and legal matters. One document that often requires certified translation—especially within religious or school contexts—is the Ukrainian Baptism Certificate. At ANZ Translation Canada, we provide professional, certified translations of Baptism certificates to help families meet the requirements of Canadian institutions, especially Catholic schools.
What Is a Ukrainian Baptism Certificate?
A Ukrainian Baptism Certificate (Свідоцтво про хрещення) is an official church-issued record documenting a person’s baptism, typically issued by the Orthodox or Greek Catholic Church in Ukraine. It usually includes:
Full name of the baptized person
Names of parents
Date and place of birth
Date and place of baptism
Name of the church and officiating priest
Official church stamp and signature
These certificates often serve as supplementary proof of religious affiliation, particularly in communities where church records carry historical or cultural significance.
When and Why You Might Need a Translation
While not required for Canadian immigration or visa applications, Ukrainian Baptism certificates are often needed for:
Admission to Catholic schools in Canada
Participation in sacraments (First Communion, Confirmation, Marriage)
Religious ceremonies or registration
Genealogical or historical research
Many Catholic school boards in Canada request proof of baptism, especially if parents want their child to attend a Catholic elementary or secondary school. Since these certificates are issued in Ukrainian, a certified English or French translation is typically required.

To be accepted by school boards, parishes, or other organizations, a translated document must:
