How Sophie & Nikos Registered Their Marriage and Baby Across Two Countries

The Challenge

Sophie (German, 30) and Nikos (Greek, 33) wanted to register their marriage at a Greek civil registry and then register their newborn. The process required apostilled birth certificates from both countries, a certificate of no impediment from Germany, and certified translations of everything.

How ELLYTIC Helped

Ellytic's Life Events service handled all certified translations (birth certificates, certificate of no impediment), coordinated with the Greek civil registry, and prepared the documentation for the baby's birth registration.

The Result

All documents were ready in 3 business days. The civil registry appointment went smoothly, and their baby was officially registered in both countries within the month.

How ELLYTIC handled it

Every ELLYTIC case follows the same remote, fixed-scope process, so clients always know what happens next and when.

• Document review — we confirm which certificates and IDs are needed and check them before anything is filed.
• Certified translation — sworn translators produce QES-signed translations accepted by every Greek authority, usually within one business day.
• Filing and follow-up — we handle each submission with the relevant Greek office and share every status update and the final documents.

Most identity and translation cases resolve within one to three business days, coordinated entirely online through a single point of contact.
