Completed by qualified Pashto translators

Getting married? Studying abroad? Do you have legal documents you must have translated? Some authorities demand that you supply certified translations of your official documents. This means that even if you are bilingual, the relevant authority is unlikely to accept your own translation. They will be looking for a translation independently carried out and by an appropriately qualified Pashto linguist.

We offer 3 main types of certification in Bedfordshire

It is important that you check with the appropriate authority which type of certification they will accept.

Digital certification

The first type of certification comes in the form of a letter printed on Knockhundredโ€™s letterhead certifying that, as a professional translation company, Knockhundred has undertaken the translation. Each page of the translation itself is also stamped. This type of certification is generally supplied in digital format. By special arrangement, we can also provide the certification in hard copy format by post.

Notarised, sworn or legalised translation

The second type of certification is where the translation is stamped and signed by a Notary Public. A notarised translation is also sometimes referred to as a “sworn” translation, but this phrase isnโ€™t often used in the UK. It can also be called a legalised translation.

A Notary Public is an officer of the law empowered to attest or confirm certain oaths, statutory declarations and documents under his seal.

Working from your documents, our qualified linguists will provide an accurate translation, carefully checking the details. Once certified by us, a Notary Public will add the official seal.

You do not need to be located near our offices as the entire process is conducted digitally and by post.

British Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) legalisation of translated documents

Some authorities insist on this extra step. Once notarised by a Notary Public and confirmed as true translations, the translations and any associated original documents are further verified and stamped by the FCO.

How is the cost for certified Pashto translations calculated?

  • Translation is calculated per source word of original content
  • The cost depends on the level of certification: digital, notarisation or FCO legalisation.

While youโ€™re here… some quite interesting facts about the Pashto language.

Pashto is the language of the Pashtun. It is one of the two official languages of Afghanistan and the second-largest regional language of Pakistan. It’s estimated that there are 45โ€“60 million Pashto-speakers worldwide. Pashto employs the Pashto alphabet, which is a modified form of the Perso-Arabic alphabet and has extra letters for sounds which are specific to Pashto. The Pashto alphabet consists of 45 letters.

Where is Pashto most widely spoken?

Afghanistan. Pashto is also a recognised minority language in Pakistan.
