For USCIS and many other official processes, a standard translation is not enough. You typically need a certified translation: a complete English translation of the original document, accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy.
Punjabi records may include Gurmukhi script, Shahmukhi script, regional terminology, stamps, seals, handwritten notes, marginal entries, and formatting that must be translated carefully and completely. Missing even a small detail can create confusion or delay, especially if a reviewer needs to confirm identity, family relationships, education history, or background information.
MotaWord’s Punjabi translation services are designed to handle these document types with precision. We translate every visible element and format the English version clearly so it is ready for USCIS, courts, universities, credential evaluators, employers, and other official reviewers.

Punjabi documents often carry both personal and legal importance. Whether you are submitting records from Amritsar, Ludhiana, Jalandhar, Patiala, Lahore, Faisalabad, or another Punjabi-speaking region, accurate translation matters.
From Janam Praman Patra (ਜਨਮ ਪ੍ਰਮਾਣ ਪੱਤਰ), or Birth Certificate, to Viah Da Praman Patra (ਵਿਆਹ ਦਾ ਪ੍ਰਮਾਣ ਪੱਤਰ), or Marriage Certificate, each document must be translated clearly and completely. Academic records such as Ank Talika (ਅੰਕ ਤਾਲਿਕਾ), diplomas, and school leaving certificates also require careful handling when used for university admissions, credential evaluations, or employment-based immigration.
Our certified Punjabi translation process uses native linguists familiar with Gurmukhi script, Shahmukhi script, and common document formats used by municipal offices, schools, universities, police authorities, and local administrators. We also pay close attention to name transliteration, helping ensure names align with passport spellings, USCIS forms, academic records, and other supporting documents whenever possible.

When submitting documents to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS), a simple translation is insufficient. You are required to provide a certified translation—a word-for-word English version accompanied by a signed Certificate of Accuracy on professional letterhead.
Many documents from Punjab, such as the Janam Sakhi or official municipal birth records, may contain regional dialects or specific Gurmukhi notations. To avoid a "Request for Evidence" (RFE), every stamp, seal, and marginal note must be fully translated. At MotaWord, our Punjabi-certified translation service handles the complexities of the Gurmukhi script and local administrative formats, providing a document that is ready for immediate legal submission.
