Documents we translate from Italy

Patente di guida (driving licence) - Italian driving licences follow the EU credit-card format with standardised category codes (AM, A1, A2, A, B, BE, C1, C, D1, D, etc.). Our translators produce a NAATI-certified English translation that clearly maps each EU category for Australian state transport authorities.

Certificato di nascita / Estratto di nascita - Italian birth certificates are issued by the Comune (municipality) and come in two forms: the certificato (certificate) and the estratto (extract). We translate both formats, including all annotations, the Comune stamp and the ufficiale di stato civile details.

Certificato del casellario giudiziale - Your Italian criminal record certificate is issued by the Tribunale (court) and is required for most Australian visa applications. We translate the full document including the issuing authority details and any apostille from the Procura della Repubblica.

Laurea and diploma di maturita - Italian university degrees (laurea) include the thesis title, final grade (expressed as a score out of 110, with 110/110 e lode being the highest distinction) and institution details. We also translate the diploma di maturita (high school diploma) with its grading out of 100. Our translators are familiar with the Italian grading system and provide accurate translations.

Certificato di matrimonio - Italian marriage certificates from the Comune include detailed civil registry information. We translate every field including the regime patrimoniale (property regime) and any annotazioni.

Codice fiscale and identity documents - The codice fiscale is Italy's tax identification number and appears on virtually all Italian documents. Our translators preserve the codice fiscale and all other identification numbers exactly as they appear on your originals.

Apostilled documents - Italian apostilles are issued by the Procura della Repubblica (Public Prosecutor's Office) at the local Tribunale. We translate both the original document and the attached apostille as a single certified translation.

Medical records and vaccination certificates - Italian medical documents and libretto delle vaccinazioni are translated for healthcare registration and skilled worker visa applications in Australia.

Procura (power of attorney) - Italian notarised powers of attorney are translated for legal proceedings, property transactions and immigration matters in Australia.

Common situations for Italian nationals in Australia

Dual citizenship applications - Italy is one of the most common countries for dual citizenship claims in Australia, particularly among second and third-generation Italian-Australians. Applicants need birth certificates, marriage certificates and death certificates translated from Italian for submission to the Italian consulate or the Comune in Italy. Our translators handle historical documents including older handwritten civil records.

Driving in Australia on your patente di guida - Your Italian EU-format patente di guida requires a NAATI-certified English translation for both temporary driving and licence conversion in Australia. Queensland does not accept International Driving Permits for conversion - a NAATI translation is the only option.

Partner visa and family reunion - Italian nationals applying for partner visas (subclass 820/801) need birth certificates, police checks and relationship evidence translated. Certificati from the Comune must be translated in full, including all annotazioni, for the Department of Home Affairs.

Skills assessment and professional registration - Italian professionals applying for skilled migration need their laurea translated for assessment by bodies such as VETASSESS, Engineers Australia or AHPRA. The Italian grading system (18/30 to 30/30 e lode for individual exams, and 66/110 to 110/110 e lode for final degree grades) differs from Australian standards, and our translators provide accurate conversions with explanatory notes.

Tips for Italian documents

Request your apostille from the Procura della Repubblica - Italian apostilles are issued by the Procura della Repubblica at your local Tribunale. Processing times vary by region, so allow at least 2-4 weeks. Some Comuni can also direct you to the correct Procura for your documents.

Include all annotazioni on certificates - Italian certificati often have annotazioni (annotations) added over time, such as marriage or divorce records on a birth certificate. Upload every page including annotations so we can translate the complete document as required by Australian authorities.

Understand the Italian grading system - Italian university grades use a scale of 18-30 for individual exams (with 30 e lode as the highest) and 66-110 for the final laurea grade (with 110 e lode as the highest distinction). Our translators include these details accurately and add explanatory notes for Australian institutions.

Keep your codice fiscale visible - The codice fiscale appears on most Italian documents and is used as a unique identifier. Ensure it is clearly legible in your scan or photo, as Australian authorities may reference it for identity verification.

Frequently asked questions

Yes. Our NAATI-accredited translators regularly handle historical Italian documents, including handwritten civil records from Comuni, church records (certificati di battesimo) and older-format birth, marriage and death certificates. These are commonly needed for Italian dual citizenship applications lodged through the Italian consulate in Australia or directly with a Comune in Italy.
Yes, but only with a NAATI-certified English translation or an International Driving Permit. Most Australian states allow temporary driving for 3-6 months. If you become a permanent resident, you must convert to an Australian licence within 3 months. Queensland does not accept IDPs for licence conversion - a NAATI translation is required.
You can request your certificato del casellario giudiziale through the Italian consulate in Australia or online via the Italian Ministry of Justice portal. The consulate can also assist with apostilling the document. Once you have the certificate, upload it to EzyTranslate for NAATI-certified translation within 24-48 hours.
Yes. Italian universities use a 18-30 scale for individual exams (with 30 e lode as the highest mark) and a 66-110 scale for the final laurea grade (with 110/110 e lode as the highest distinction). The diploma di maturita uses a scale out of 100. Our translators accurately convert these grades and provide explanatory notes that Australian skills assessment bodies such as VETASSESS and Engineers Australia expect.
Some Australian authorities and institutions require apostilled documents, while others accept a NAATI-certified translation alone. Italian apostilles are issued by the Procura della Repubblica at the local Tribunale. If your document already has an apostille, we translate both the document and the apostille together as a single certified translation at no extra cost.
