Why do you need the translation of your ID card?
ID cards only have to be translated when the country of issuance is not part of the Hague Convention. According to the Hague Convention documents for identification do not have to be translated anymore. However, some states did not sign this Agreement. In those cases ID cards need to be translated for immigration or other occasions.
