- Translation in Brantford
Saraiki, also spelled Siraiki, is an Indo-Aryan language of southern Punjab in Pakistan, written in a Perso-Arabic script; documents usually come in Urdu, so translation runs from there while interpreting is arranged in Saraiki itself, in Brantford and across Canada.
Certified Siraiki to English Translation in Brantford
We provide certified Urdu to English translation of the records a Saraiki family holds, such as the birth registration, the nikah nama, the family registration certificate and educational documents, with consistent name spellings.
Saraiki, spelled Siraiki as well, is an Indo-Aryan language of the southern Punjab in Pakistan, spoken around Multan, Bahawalpur and Dera Ghazi Khan. It is written in a Perso-Arabic script close to the Shahmukhi used for Punjabi, with extra letters for the implosive consonants that are a distinctive feature of the language. Pakistan issues civil records in Urdu and English, however, so a Saraiki speaker's birth, marriage and identity documents, and the computerised national identity card, are almost always in Urdu or English rather than in Saraiki.
That means the document work is usually Urdu to English translation of records such as the birth registration, the nikah nama marriage contract, the family registration certificate and educational documents. We set out names consistently, since a name can be spelled several ways when moved from the Urdu script into English, and we match the spelling on the passport.
Translations are issued as a certified translation by a qualified translator, or as a sworn affidavit before a commissioner of oaths. Acceptance ultimately depends on the receiving institution, such as IRCC, the IRB or a provincial registry.
Every certified Siraiki 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 Brantford gets the same translator, the same price and the same turnaround as one anywhere else in Canada.

Brantford sits on the Grand River next to Six Nations of the Grand River, the most populous First Nations reserve in Canada. Immigrants make up about 15.6 per cent of the population, up from 12.5 per cent in 2016, and more than one in ten residents has a first language other than English, with Punjabi and Polish among the most common non-official languages. Wilfrid Laurier University's Brantford campus draws students into the city's downtown.
Brantford General Hospital, part of the Brant Community Healthcare System, and settlement agencies such as YMCA Immigrant Settlement Services support residents and newcomers alike. The Ontario Superior Court of Justice and the Ontario Court of Justice, including Small Claims Court, hear local matters. Health care, legal proceedings and newcomer settlement generate steady demand for translation and interpreting, including the Indigenous languages of the neighbouring Grand River community.
Siraiki Interpreters in Brantford
Our Saraiki interpreters cover IRB hearings, IRCC interviews and medical appointments in Brantford, and we assign a Saraiki speaker rather than a Punjabi one where the distinct language matters.
The distinct Saraiki need is spoken. Saraiki is a separate language from Urdu, and a generic Urdu interpreter can miss its vocabulary and idiom, so we confirm the speaker's preferred language and the requirements of an IRB hearing, an IRCC interview or a medical appointment at intake and assign a Saraiki interpreter to match.
Interpreting is available in Brantford on site, and by phone or video across Canada. Saraiki is close to Punjabi but not the same, so we assign a Saraiki speaker rather than a Punjabi one where the language matters, and confirm the speaker's home region since usage varies across the Saraiki belt.
For an in-person assignment in Brantford we assign a Siraiki interpreter based in or near the city. Telephone and video interpreting can usually be arranged the same day. Courts, law firms, hospitals, IRCC applicants and private clients book us directly. See Siraiki interpreter in Brantford for the full interpreting service.
About the Siraiki Language
Siraiki (Saraiki) is an Indo-Aryan language spoken by around 26 million people, primarily in southern Punjab and adjacent parts of Sindh, Balochistan, and Khyber-Pakhtunkhwa in Pakistan. It's distinct from Punjabi but closely related. The Siraiki-speaking community in Canada is part of the broader Pakistani-Canadian population, particularly in Toronto and Mississauga. Our Siraiki translation work is mostly IRCC civil documents and family-sponsorship paperwork. Siraiki uses a Perso-Arabic script.

Are my Pakistani documents in Saraiki?
Usually not. Pakistan issues civil records in Urdu and English, so we translate those into English and match names to your passport. Saraiki is translated where it actually appears in a document.
Is a Punjabi or Urdu interpreter fine for a Saraiki speaker?
Not by default. Saraiki is a distinct language, related to Punjabi but not the same, so we confirm the language at intake and assign a Saraiki interpreter.
