Certified Afghan Persian (Dari) translation of Afghan civil records for IRCC and the IRB, and Afghan Persian interpreters for refugee hearings, medical and settlement appointments in Mississauga and across Canada.
Afghan Persian Interpreters in Mississauga
Our Afghan Persian interpreters cover IRB hearings, IRCC interviews and medical, mental health and settlement appointments in Mississauga, matched to the speaker's home region rather than assumed to be Iranian Farsi.
Since the 2021 resettlement, Afghan Persian interpreting is common at IRB refugee hearings and IRCC interviews, and in medical, mental health and settlement appointments. An interpreter is briefed on the calendar and naming points above so a date of birth or a father's name is not confused during testimony or intake.
Afghan Persian differs from Iranian Persian (Farsi) in accent and everyday vocabulary, and some Afghan clients are stronger in Pashto, Hazaragi or Uzbek. Tell us the speaker's first language and home region at booking so we match Afghan Persian rather than assume Farsi, and flag gender preference where a client raises it. We assign on site in Mississauga and by phone or video across Canada.
For an in-person assignment in Mississauga we assign an Afghan Persian interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. We serve courts, lawyers, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private individuals; we are a private agency, not a court-appointed vendor, and we say so up front.
Afghan Persian Court, Medical and IRCC Interpreters in Mississauga
Afghan Persian interpreters in Mississauga attend IRB refugee hearings, IRCC interviews and medical and mental health appointments, with gender preference flagged and Pashto or Hazaragi matched where a speaker is stronger in those.
Mississauga is one of Canada's most diverse cities, where more than half the population was born outside the country and over 328,000 residents report a mother tongue other than English or French. After English, the most common languages are Urdu, Arabic, Mandarin, Polish and Punjabi, reflecting strong immigration from South Asia, the Middle East and East Asia. Urdu is the non-official language spoken most often at home.
This mix creates continual demand for translation and interpreting. Newcomers filing IRCC and permanent residence applications need certified document translation, while Trillium Health Partners and local schools require interpreters. The Peel District School Board translates family materials into languages including Arabic, Chinese, Gujarati, Hindi, Punjabi, Tamil and Urdu. Peel Region's Ontario Superior Court of Justice sits in nearby Brampton, an Ontario Court of Justice serves the area, and Small Claims Court handles minor disputes. The Newcomer Centre of Peel supports settlement.

Afghan Persian to English Translation Services in Mississauga
We provide certified Afghan Persian to English translation of tazkiras, marriage and education records and the supporting documents behind refugee and family reunification claims, converting Solar Hijri dates and noting where a birth year is estimated.
Afghan Persian, the Dari variety of Persian spoken across much of Afghanistan, is written in the Perso-Arabic script, often in a flowing nastaliq hand read right to left. Afghan applicants commonly present a tazkira (national identity document), which may be an older handwritten booklet or a newer electronic card, along with marriage and education records. Many older records are handwritten and use the Solar Hijri calendar, which we convert to the Gregorian one and label.
Afghan documents raise recurring issues. Births were frequently unregistered at the time, so a tazkira may show an estimated year rather than a full date, and names follow a given name with a father's and grandfather's name rather than a fixed surname. We render the document as printed, set out the name order plainly, and note where a date is approximate so a Canadian reader does not treat an estimate as exact.
Translations are issued by a certified translator, or carried by a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths where a receiving body prefers one. Prism Linguistics is a private agency, not a court-appointed body, and acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, such as IRCC, the IRB or a provincial registry.
Every certified Afghan Persian translation is a complete, word-for-word rendering with a signed Certificate of Translation Accuracy, prepared to meet IRCC requirements. It is done from a clear scan, so a client in Mississauga gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

About the Afghan Persian Language
Afghan Persian is more commonly called Dari - Afghanistan's second official language and the lingua franca of Afghan business, education, and media. Around 15 million people speak it as a first language. Translation work for Afghan Persian in Canada has surged since the 2021 fall of Kabul, driven by Canada's special humanitarian programs for Afghan nationals - IRCC resettlement and permanent-residence paperwork, civil documents (tazkira identity cards, marriage records), and the medical and education intake forms tied to recent refugee arrivals. Afghan Persian uses Perso-Arabic script - the same alphabet as Iranian Farsi but with distinctive Afghan vocabulary.
Afghan Persian Interpreting in Mississauga: FAQs
My tazkira shows only an estimated year of birth. Can you translate it?
Yes. Late or absent birth registration is common in Afghanistan, so a tazkira may show an approximate year. We translate it exactly and note that the date is estimated; whether the document is accepted is decided by the receiving institution.
Is Afghan Persian the same as Farsi?
They are varieties of the same language but differ in accent and vocabulary. We match Afghan Persian (Dari) for Afghan clients and ask about home region, since a speaker may be stronger in Pashto, Hazaragi or Uzbek.
Can you interpret for an IRB refugee hearing in Afghan Persian?
Yes, we arrange Afghan Persian interpreters for IRB hearings and IRCC interviews on site or by video, and flag gender preference where it is raised.
Do you have an office in Mississauga?
Afghan Persian translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in Mississauga we assign an Afghan Persian interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in Canada.
