Certified Sindhi translation and interpreting in Burnaby and across Canada, for IRCC permanent residence and study files, civil records, and family and medical appointments.
Sindhi interpreters in Burnaby for interviews, hearings and appointments, matched to community background, with the speaker's preference among Sindhi, Urdu, Hindi or English confirmed in advance.
Sindhi is spoken by Muslim communities from the Pakistani province and by Hindu Sindhi families whose roots are in India, and vocabulary and everyday phrasing can differ between them, so at booking we ask about the speaker's background and match the interpreter. Many speakers also use Urdu, Hindi or English, and we confirm which language the speaker gives evidence in most comfortably.
Interpreters attend IRCC and IRB interviews, Canadian court matters, and hospital or clinic appointments under PHIPA and PIPEDA. Sessions run in person in Burnaby and by phone or video for appointments anywhere in Canada.
For an in-person assignment in Burnaby we assign a Sindhi 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.

Burnaby lies immediately east of Vancouver and is British Columbia's third largest city, home to major shopping, film production and technology employers around Metrotown and the Brentwood and Lougheed town centres. It is highly multilingual: English is the mother tongue of about 41 per cent of residents, while more than half report another first language, and the Chinese community, including Mandarin and Cantonese speakers, is the single largest group, alongside Korean, Tagalog and Punjabi speakers.
Simon Fraser University sits atop Burnaby Mountain and the British Columbia Institute of Technology is also based here, drawing international students and faculty. Burnaby Hospital operates under the Fraser Health authority, and the Provincial Court of British Columbia and the Supreme Court of British Columbia serve the area. Together these institutions, along with settlement agencies and local businesses, generate ongoing demand for translation and interpreting in the community's many languages.

Certified Sindhi to English translation of birth, marriage and death certificates, national identity and family registration records and education certificates, issued by a certified translator or with a sworn affidavit where a Canadian body requests one.
Sindhi is written in two different scripts depending on where a record comes from: in Pakistan it uses an extended Perso-Arabic alphabet read right to left, while in India it is often written in Devanagari or in the Arabic script. A certified translator confirms which script a document uses and transliterates names carefully, since a passport spelling and a certificate spelling can differ.
Documents commonly include birth, marriage and death certificates, the national identity card, the family registration certificate, education records such as matriculation and degree certificates, and police clearance records. For IRCC applications and provincial registrations these are usually filed with a certified translation, though acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution.
Right-to-left text and mixed Sindhi and English on the same page call for careful formatting, so the translation is set out beside the original and seals and handwriting are noted rather than guessed at.
Every certified Sindhi 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 Burnaby gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

Sindhi is the language of Pakistan's Sindh province and the Indian diaspora descended from Sindh, with around 30 million speakers total. After partition in 1947, a substantial Sindhi-Hindu community resettled in India - particularly in Mumbai, Gujarat, and Rajasthan - and from there many emigrated onward, with Canadian concentrations now in the Toronto area, particularly Mississauga and Brampton. Sindhi is written in Perso-Arabic script in Pakistan and Devanagari script in India, so source-document origin determines the translator. Our Sindhi translation work is mostly IRCC civil documents, family-court paperwork, and community-association documents.
