Japanese writing system & names (important)

Japanese documents may include a mix of:

  • Kanji (Chinese characters),
  • Hiragana and Katakana, and sometimes
  • Latin letters (passport-style name spellings).

If you have multiple documents (e.g., koseki + passport + diploma), send them together—this helps keep names, dates, and place names consistent across the certified translation.


Where Japanese appears on official documents

You asked for the “full list” of places where a language is official or realistically used for issuing documents. For Japanese, the key point is:

A) Country where Japanese is the national language (documents commonly issued in Japanese)

  • Japan — Japanese is the national language used in government, education, and public administration (even though Japan is often described as having no explicit “official language” clause in the constitution).

B) Place where Japanese is de jure an official language (local level)

  • Angaur (Palau) — Japanese is listed as an official language in Angaur’s state constitution (alongside Palauan and English). This is a notable real-life source of Japanese-language “official” context.

In practice, if your document comes from Japan, it’s normal to see Japanese on civil registry records, education documents, administrative decisions, court paperwork, and business documents.


When do you need a sworn / certified Japanese translation?

Most often when submitting documents to:

  • registry offices, courts, notaries
  • universities and schools
  • employers (formal HR, regulated professions)
  • immigration authorities, embassies
  • banks and insurers

If you’re unsure whether your institution accepts qualified e-signature or requires paper, tell us the destination country/office and we’ll recommend the safest format.


Apostille / legalization (important)

Depending on where you submit the document, you may also need an Apostille (or legalization). Tell us:

  • the issuing country (where the document is from) and
  • the destination country (where you will submit it),
    and we’ll advise what is typically required.
