📦 Instructions for mailing hard copies (Alberta)

In Alberta, some Registries or relevant government departments may require you to present the original hard copy of the ATIA certified translation when processing license exchanges, vehicle registrations, or taxi/ride-sharing driver registrations. If you are only using it for certain insurance or general filing purposes, a digital version may sometimes suffice, but you should always defer to the requirements of the processing agency.

To avoid delays, it is recommended that you confirm whether a hard copy is required before making an appointment or visiting a registry. If you place an order through SuYi, we can provide a combined service of a digital copy plus the mailing of the physical original.

📌 If you plan to visit a local Alberta Registry to handle license-related business, it is recommended to bring: a valid passport, your original Chinese driver's license, the hard copy of the ATIA certified translation, and required proof of residency. Please refer to the latest official instructions from the Alberta government or your local Registry for specific required materials.

ℹ️ Tips for using driver's license translations

To ensure your ATIA certified translation is successfully used in official scenarios, please note the following:

• Do not attach personal photos or add any markings to the translated document.
• Do not alter or cover the content, layout, signature, or stamp area of the translation.
• In general, the ATIA certified translation itself possesses official validity and usually does not require additional notarization.
• Please keep the hard copy safe; contact us in advance if you need replacements or additional copies.
