Romani Interpreter in London, ON

Romani interpreting and certified translation in London and across Canada, mostly interpreting-led and often tied to refugee claims at the IRB, with the country of origin confirmed for each record.

Romani Interpreters in London

Romani interpreters in London matched by dialect and country, with the majority language of the home country noted as a fallback for the appointment.

Dialect matching matters a great deal for Romani. The Vlax group, including Kalderash and Lovari, the Balkan, Carpathian and Sinti varieties all differ, and a speaker often follows an interpreter from the same group and country more comfortably, so we ask about both at booking.

Many speakers also use the majority language of their home country, which can serve as a fallback. Our Romani interpreters work in IRB refugee hearings and IRCC interviews, Canadian court settings, hospital and clinic appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA, and school and settlement meetings, on site in London and by phone or video across Canada.

For an in-person assignment in London we assign a Romani 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.

Romani to English Translation Services in London

Certified translation into English of birth, marriage and identity certificates, school records and refugee or statelessness papers, each rendered from the language it was issued in, with a certified translator or a sworn affidavit.

Romani is the language of the Roma, spoken across Europe in many dialects with no single official spelling. There is rarely an official document in Romani itself, because civil records are issued in the language of the country a person lived in, such as Romanian, Serbian, Slovak, Hungarian or Czech.

So translation usually runs from that country's language into English, and we ask which country issued each record before starting. We translate birth, marriage and identity certificates, school records and the supporting papers for a refugee or statelessness claim, with a certified translator or a sworn affidavit of accuracy, and names matched to your passport.

Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, so where a person holds records from more than one country we translate each in the language it was issued in and note its origin.

Every certified Romani 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 London gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada. See certified Romani translation for the document service in full.

About the Romani Language

Romani is the language of the Roma people, with around 4 million speakers distributed across Europe - particularly in Romania, Bulgaria, Hungary, Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Serbia, and Spain - plus diaspora communities in Canada. It's an Indo-Aryan language descended from ancestral languages of northern India, brought west during medieval Roma migration. The Romani-speaking community in Canada is small but distinctive, concentrated largely in the Toronto area, and has grown through waves of Roma refugee claimants from Central Europe. Our Romani translation work is occasional and typically tied to IRB refugee hearings, cultural, or community-association documents.

Romani Interpreting in London: FAQs

My documents are not in Romani. Can you still help?

Yes. Roma civil records are issued in the language of the country a person lived in, so we translate from Romanian, Serbian, Slovak, Hungarian or another language, confirming the origin of each record.

Does the Romani dialect matter for an interpreter?

Yes. Vlax, Balkan, Carpathian and Sinti varieties differ, so we ask about the speaker's group and home country to match an interpreter they follow comfortably.

Can I get a Romani interpreter for a refugee hearing?

Yes. We provide interpreters for IRB hearings and IRCC interviews on site in London or by phone and video across Canada.

Do you have an office in London?

Romani translation is done remotely from a scan, so location makes no difference to the document work. For in-person interpreting in London we assign a Romani interpreter who is based in or near the city, and phone or video interpreting is available anywhere in Canada.
