美國公證詞認證書怎么翻譯？

美國的公證文件屬于法律文書翻譯，里面有不少用詞及期用法比較難以理解，例如 to  administer oaths、and that full faith and credit may and ought to be given to said Clerk’s official acts等等。下面我們就引述美國紐約州的公證書做為翻譯示例，供大家參考下：

United States of America

State of New York

Department of State

美利堅合眾國

紐約州

州政府

It is hereby certified, that XXX was Clerk of the County of New York in the State of New York, and Clerk of the Supreme Court therein, being a Court of Record, on the day of the date of the annexed certificate, and duly authorized to grant same; that the seal affixed to said certificate is the seal of said County and Court; that the attestation thereof of said Clerk is in due form and executed by the proper officer; and that full faith and credit may and ought to be given to said Clerk’s official acts.

茲證明，XXX，于所附證明所載日期當日，系紐約州紐約郡職員以及紐約州審判法庭（屬記錄法庭）職員，且其擁有出具該證明之適當授權；該證明中所蓋印章系上述郡和法庭之印章；該職員所作證明形式適當并經合適的官員簽署；該職員之職務行為是完全可信和誠信的。

In Testimony Whereof, the Department of the State seal is hereunto affixed.
